Replace:
cp tests/guests/fedora.img test.img
with the longer but possibly more space-efficient equivalent:
qemu-img create -F raw -b tests/guests/fedora.img -f qcow2 test.qcow2
This returns the number of whole block devices added. It is usually
simpler to call this than to list the devices and count them, which
is what we do in some places in the current codebase.
On Debian, the Ruby C extensions library isn't '-lruby', it's
something like '-lruby1.8' or '-lruby-1.9.1' and these can even be
parallel-installed.
Fix detection so we use Ruby's own rbconfig.rb file to find the right
library to use.
MALLOC_PERTURB_ is a glibc feature which causes malloc to wipe memory
before and after it is used, allowing both use-after-free and
uninitialized reads to be detected with relatively little performance
penalty:

Modify the ./run script so that it always sets this.
We were already using MALLOC_PERTURB_ in most tests. Since ./run is
now setting this, we can remove it from individual Makefiles. Most
TESTS_ENVIRONMENT will now simply look like this:
TESTS_ENVIRONMENT = $(top_builddir)/run --test
On RHEL 5, because _GNU_SOURCE was not defined, open_memstream was not
being declared, resulting in miscompilation and a segfault in the
trace code whenever open_memstream returned a pointer >= 0x80000000
(which would be truncated to a 32 bit int and then sign-extended).
When libguestfs calls 'error (g, "error")', gjs in F17 throws
error.message == "Error invoking Guestfs.test0rinterr: error"
In F18, error.message is simply the string "error".
Fix the test so it works for both cases.
This option, when added via
TESTS_ENVIRONMENT = [...] $(top_builddir)/run --test
allows us to run the tests and only print the full output (including
debugging etc) when the test fails.
The stdin and stdout of the qemu process are aliased to g->fd:
g->fd[0] = wfd[1];
g->fd[1] = rfd[0];
However if the child exits early, then child_cleanup closes g->fd[0],
g->fd[1], AND the code at the cleanup1 label closes wfd[1], rfd[0],
resulting in a double-close.
Avoid this case by setting wfd[1], rfd[0] to -1. In the cleanup1
label, only close wfd[1], rfd[0] if they are not -1, and add the same
for g->fd[0], g->fd[1].
Old KVM can't add /dev/null readonly. Treat /dev/null as a special
case.
We also fix a few tests where /dev/null was being used with
format=qcow2. This was always incorrect behaviour, but qemu appears
to tolerate it.
Old <libvirt.h> had a conflicting definition of virDomainGetXMLDesc:
fake_libvirt_xml.c:36: error: conflicting types for 'virDomainGetXMLDesc'
/usr/include/libvirt/libvirt.h:715: error: previous declaration of 'virDomainGetXMLDesc' was here
The difference is not material ('int' vs. 'unsigned int').
Avoid the error by not including <libvirt.h>.
