EDD (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Disk_Drive) is a BIOS INT 13h
subcall for communicating the extended size of the boot disk over 8GB
to the OS. Since libguestfs doesn't use a boot disk, and the
appliance disk is limited to 4GB, and we use virtio-scsi, this is all
useless.
EDD is also broken currently on RHEL 7.3, see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1404287
Also the EDD probing takes significant extra time (about 80ms on my
laptop), and using edd=off reduces this time although doesn't entirely
eliminate it.
One of the tests for btrfs_subvolume_show tries to invoke it on the
toplevel subvolume, expecting its failure (since btrfs-progs used to not
be able to list that). However, since v4.8.3 btrfs-progs can do that
(even if the data returned for that subvolume is limited/incomplete),
and thus this test fails because the API does not fail anymore.
Since we can consider that functionality working (for some kind of it),
then drop this test.
Very recent versions of tar (most probably as a consequence of
CVE-2016-6321) may refuse archive members with '..', like the relative
paths to upper level directories.
Since these are just tests, simply copy the files in the temporary
directories where tar (or zip as well) is run, so all the files are in
the same directory.
The return value struct was freed using a simple free() instead of the
own cleanup function of each struct: this meant dynamically allocated
values (such as strings) were leaked.
Use the proper cleanup functions instead.

The definition of BUILDFILES was accidentally removed, resulting
in the error:
cp /home/rjones/d/websites/libguestfs/download/builder/
cp: missing destination file operand after '/home/rjones/d/websites/libguestfs/download/builder/'
Fixes commit 65a0570385.
It fails with:
File "../builder/templates/make-template.ml", line 1, characters 0-1:
Parse error: [a_LIDENT] expected after "#" (in [implem])
End_of_file
An error occurs while processing.
In any case this doesn't matter because this file should not be
translated.
Fixes commit a1ea9a2599.

I believe the code as written previously was incorrect. However we
are lucky because if neither clause matches then it will fall through
to displaying an error message, allowing the user to correct the
problem.
For a very long time we have maintained two sets of utility functions,
in mllib/common_utils.ml and generator/utils.ml. This changes things
so that the same set of utility functions can be shared with both
directories.
It's not possible to use common_utils.ml directly in the generator
because it provides several functions that use modules outside the
OCaml stdlib. Therefore we add some lightweight post-processing which
extracts the functions using only the stdlib:
(*<stdlib>*)
...
(*</stdlib>*)
and creates generator/common_utils.ml and generator/common_utils.mli
from that. The effect is we only need to write utility functions
once.
As with other tools, we still have generator-specific utility
functions in generator/utils.ml.
Also in this change:
- Use String.uppercase_ascii and String.lowercase_ascii in place
of deprecated String.uppercase/String.lowercase.
- Implement String.capitalize_ascii to replace deprecated
String.capitalize.
- Move isspace, isdigit, isxdigit functions to Char module.
Support for RHEV with RHEL 6 nodes required us to output the old style
qcow2 compat=0.10 images. Since RHEV 3.6 GA, RHEL 6 has not been
supported as a RHEV node type. Since RHV 4.1, compat=1.1 is
supported. (Support for compat=1.1 is uncertain in RHV 4.0 even on
RHEL 7 nodes.)
There are significant downsides to using qcow2 compat=0.10 instead of
the modern default (compat=1.1).
Therefore this patch does two things:
For -o rhev, it drops support for compat=0.10 completely. You must
use RHV 4.1.
For -o vdsm, it adds an interim flag (--vdsm-compat=0.10 or
--vdsm-compat=1.1) which controls the compat level of the qcow2 output
file. VDSM should use --vdsm-compat=1.1 when it is known that modern
qemu is available. We can make this the default later when all RHV
instances have moved to 4.1.
It also adds:
vdsm-compat-option
to the `virt-v2v --machine-readable' output to indicate that this flag
can be used.

Flag the filesystems for Linux /usr properly as USR role, and detect
some data out of it, like the distro information from an os-release
(if present), and the architecture (since the binaries used for our
architecture check will be available there only).
Later on, collect the results in a way similar to what is done for
CoreOS: for each non-CoreOS root, try to find its /usr filesystem, and
if found then merge what is missing from root; in the last case, also
override the distro inspection data (version, product name) if available
in /usr.
When checking for the existance of /dev/mapper devices found in the
fstab of a filesystem, using guestfs_exists means they are checked as
files in the guest, while they really appear as devices on the
appliance. Instead, try the lvm name resolution anyway, and ignore them
when they are reported as missing.
Thanks to: Richard W.M. Jones.
Fixes commit 96b6504b09.
Move the checks for empty xmlXPathObjectPtr, and for extracting the
result string out of it, to a new helper functions.
This is just code motion, there should be no behaviour changes.
Add a new inspect role for "/usr" partitions, and use that to mark the
/usr partition in CoreOS: this additional role allows to ease its lookup
later on, when merging its results into those of the root.
Introduce a new enum to classify the role of a filesystem, if available.
This will help later on when doing operations on non-root filesystems,
like detecting particular mountpoints such as /usr.
The new enum has only "root" as known role, which replaces the is_root
flag.
