Like with the previous commit, this replaces instances of:
if (something_bad) {
fprintf (stderr, "%s: error message\n", guestfs_int_program_name);
exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
}
with:
if (something_bad)
error (EXIT_FAILURE, 0, "error message");
(except in a few cases were errno was incorrectly being ignored, in
which case I have fixed that).
It's slightly more complex than the previous commit because we must be
careful to:
- Remove the program name (since error(3) prints it).
- Remove any trailing \n character from the message.
Candidates for replacement were found using:
pcregrep --buffer-size 10M -M '\bfprintf\b.*\n.*\bexit\b' `git ls-files`
Wherever we had code which did:
if (something_bad) {
perror (...);
exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
}
replace this with use of the error(3) function:
if (something_bad)
error (EXIT_FAILURE, errno, ...);
The error(3) function is supplied by glibc, or by gnulib on platforms
which don't have it, and is much more flexible than perror(3). Since
we already use error(3), there seems to be no downside to mandating it
everywhere.
Note there is one nasty catch with error(3): error (EXIT_SUCCESS, ...)
does *not* exit! This is also the reason why error(3) cannot be
marked as __attribute__((noreturn)).
Because the examples can't use gnulib, I did not change them.
To search for multiline patterns of the above form, pcregrep -M turns
out to be very useful:
pcregrep --buffer-size 10M -M '\bperror\b.*\n.*\bexit\b' `git ls-files`
It was confusing to have a mix of seconds and milliseconds. For all
upstream testing (eg. with SeaBIOS) we are discussing everything in
milliseconds, so use those exclusively.
Add a new test program called 'boot-benchmark'. This is similar to
'boot-analysis' but it simply boots and shuts down the appliance
several times in a row and measures how long it takes, calculating
mean and standard deviation.
When a struct containing FChar fields is defined
in generator/structs.ml, the Python code generator will generate
code referencing a dirent struct instead of the correct one
thus breaking at compile time.
This bug was left unnoticed because the dirent struct is the only
one using FChar fields. Yet it prevents any other struct
from using such fields.

Look for /lib/os-release in the /usr partition and try to use it, if
present, before using lsb-release later on. This should not change the
final result of the inspection, while using the os-release detection
method also for CoreOS.
Update the phony CoreOS image to use os-release instead, uploading the
version found in the current stable version.
The "icat" name comes from the employed command line tool which might be
replaced at any time with a different implementation.
The command name is a bit confusing because it's similar to "cat" but
act as "download".
download_inode is more clear and descriptive.

Use the proper length modifier for asprintf, instead of a padding
modifier. This fixes the parsing of versions in VERSION_ID which are a
single number (i.e. "X" and not "X.Y", etc).
Bug introduced with commit 32d19e3289, but
uncovered recently with the switch away from VLAs, i.e.
commit 07c496c53c.
In order to support the new features I am renaming the file with a better name.
The file sleuthkit.c will contain the code depending on the sleuthkit package.
The original tsk.c file will contain the logic built using libtsk
which is the sleuthkit core library.

Some of the systemd-tmpfiles snippets need the machine ID of the running
system; the current lack of this file produces warning messages during
the appliance boot like:
[/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf:26] Failed to replace specifiers: /run/log/journal/%m
[/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf:28] Failed to replace specifiers: /run/log/journal/%m
[/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf:29] Failed to replace specifiers: /run/log/journal/%m
Thus create a new randomly-generated /etc/machine-id on boot.
These options allow you to control the appliance memory size, number
of vCPUs, and extra kernel options respectively.
Note that using --smp is not usually a good idea. Not only does it
slow down the appliance, but it tends to break the boot analysis
program because it makes runs (more) non-deterministic.
the description of the --selinux-relabel option suggests that it
perform an immediate relabel, when in fact it may (and probably will)
instead simply touch /.autorelabel on the image, which schedules a
relabel operation for the next time the image boots. This can be
surprising because it results both in an extended initial boot time
*and* results in an automatic reboot (on some distributions).
It seems that the documentation for --in-place mode of v2v wasn't clear
enough, so try to explain it better.

In in-place mode, the decisions on which interfaces to use are made and
the source VM configuration is created by the outside entity. So in
that case v2v needs to look it up in the source configuraion, and try to
follow.
For that, the source VM configuration is used to populate requested caps
object which is then passed to the convert routine.
It's assumed that the configuration has exactly one type of storage
devices and no more than one type of network and video adapters;
anything else is rejected.

Give the caller certain control over what kind of interface to use for
virtual disks, network and video cards upon conversion.
For that, make convert functions accept additional rcaps parameter
containing an object with optional capabilities similar to the ones
produced on output, with None indicating that the decision is left to
the convert function itself.
To facilicate review, this patch unconditionally passes rcaps with no
preferences; populating it with more sensible values is done in a
followup patch.

Introduce a type to contain the guestcaps that are to be put in effect
in the converted VM: options of the block type, net type, and video.
It'll be populated by the caller and passed into convert function to
affect its choice of devices and drivers.

Those will be useful when making decisions about what configuration to
set on output.
The data is also included in --print-source so the tests are adjusted
accordingly.

This tedious workaround avoids a 0.26 second pause when using sgabios
(the Serial Graphics Adapter). It's basically a workaround for buggy
code in sgabios, but much easier than fixing the assembler.
