Rename guestfs_safe_malloc et al to guestfs___safe_malloc etc.
To use the private functions, code now has to define
-DGUESTFS_PRIVATE_FUNCTIONS=1. This will make it easier for us in
future to work out which programs are using these functions and to
minimize both the number of programs and the functions they are
calling.
Note that the Perl, Python, OCaml, Ruby and Java bindings use
guestfs_safe_* calls. None of the other bindings do. This is a bug
(in the bindings using those functions): these functions will call the
out of memory callback on failure. This function defaults to abort(),
and since this happens from a language binding, there is no way to
change this default.
These configure flags enable code profiling (with gprof) and code
coverage (with gcov) respectively.
Although this is a nice idea, it's not currently very useful.
Libtool mangles filenames in such a way that gcov cannot locate its
datafiles.
Profiling is of dubious utility with libguestfs which is not CPU-bound
and relies extensively on running external programs (oprofile-like
system profiling that took into account libguestfs + qemu or
libguestfs + qemu + the appliance + filesystem tools *would* be
useful).
Also neither flag will help in capturing data from the appliance.
This commit models libvirt authentication events through the API,
adding one new event (GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBVIRT_AUTH) and several new
APIs:
guestfs_set_libvirt_supported_credentials
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credentials
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_prompt
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_challenge
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_defresult
guestfs_set_libvirt_requested_credential
See the documentation and example which shows how to use the new API.
This commit also changes existing calls to virConnectOpen* within the
library so that the new API is used.
Also included is an example (but not a test, because it's hard to see
how to automatically test the libvirt API).
Don't assume that if guestfs_case_sensitive_path returns NULL, that it
means the file does not exist.
The (previously undefined) behaviour of case_sensitive_path was that a
NULL return meant "either the file doesn't exist or some other error".
However in commit 973581780d this was
changed so that if the last element of the path didn't exist, it was
assumed to be a new file and the (non-NULL) path of the new file is
returned.
This change breaks code (including in libguestfs) which tries to use
case_sensitive_path as a dual-purpose call to fix-up a path for
Windows and test if the file exists. Such code should be rewritten so
that it explicitly tests for file existence after calling
case_sensitive_path.
I examined all the calls to case_sensitive_path in libguestfs and
modified them where necessary.
I tested this by comparing the output of virt-inspector over Windows
guests before and after the change, which was identical:

libguestfs fails to build with --enable-fuse on openSuSE 11.4 and
earlier because the included fuse version does not include
libulockmgr.so. configure already used pkgconfig to retrieve the correct
CFLAGS, so there is no need to hardcode -lulockmgr.
With this change the build succeeds again.

Since our minimum supported version is now 1.16 and mount was fixed in
1.13.16, it is now safe to replace mount-options + empty options with
mount wherever it occurs.
This commit makes grep into an optargs API, with flags for extended,

At the same time it deprecates: egrep, fgrep, grepi, egrepi, fgrepi,
zgrep, zegrep, zfgrep, zgrepi, zegrepi and zfgrepi.
