Richard W.M. Jones	68990840b6	"attach method" is from now on known as "backend". ... This large, but mainly mechanical commit, renames "attach method" everywhere to "backend". Backwards compatibility of the API (guestfs_{set,get}_attach_method) and environment (LIBGUESTFS_ATTACH_METHOD) is maintained, but in new code use guestfs_{set,get}_backend and LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND instead. The default backend (launching qemu directly) is now called 'direct' instead of 'appliance', although you can still use 'appliance' as a synonym.	2013-04-01 11:16:18 +01:00

Richard W.M. Jones	ed41fcd75c	protocol: Abstract out socket operations from protocol code. ... This creates an abstract layer below the protocol code which handles the socket operations. This will make it easier to introduce libvirt virSocketPtr operations in future. In the handle, g->conn contains the connection to the appliance. g->conn is NULL when we're not connected. poll(2) is used instead of select(2). All error messages about launch failing or the appliance unexpectedly dying are handled by two common error message functions, and these contain a better explanation of what to do.	2013-03-07 18:15:09 +00:00
