[libvirt] ruby-libvirt on debian based systems
by Tom Verhaeghe
Hello
I don't know if ruby-libvirt can work in a debian-based environment. I
installed kvm, libvirt, RoR, etc on Ubuntu and it all works fine.
I pasted the output when installing the gem below. I think the problem
could be that libvirt is called differently in Ubuntu or stored on a
different location. Is there a way to get around?
Thanks in advance
Tom

The problem was related to running ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/usr.
I didn't notice that it did not run correctly. It requires the install
gettext-devel
which does not come automatically with fedora.
But now the make fails due to an i386 / i386:x86-64 incompatibility. These
are the error messages:
/usr/bin/ld: i386 architecture of input file
`.libs/libvirt_la-openvz_conf.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output
/usr/bin/ld: i386 architecture of input file
`.libs/libvirt_la-openvz_driver.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Maybe valgrind is over active, because I see the free code at the close
connection, and my own code is closing it...

[libvirt] [PATCH] configure.in: make --with-xen-distdir work for 64bit xen too
by David Lively
Currently running autogen.sh with --with-xen-distdir=something fails to
find libxenstore if there's only a 64-bit version, and subsequently
fails to enable xen support (i.e., ends up with WITH_XEN=0). This
one-line patch fixes that by telling it to search both lib and lib64.
I guess it would be better to search only the appropriate directory (lib
OR lib64) rather than both, but I'm not sure (being an autoconf-dummy)
how to ask about the target architecture.

[libvirt] [PATCH] fix lookup
by Evgeniy Sokolov
I am often catching error related with that stoped VM has ID = -1.
1. If I create/define VM with existing ID of stoped VM. Creation failed,
but error message is wrong. Detection is fixed.
2. Dominfo command may show info about some another VM. And report error
that can't get autostart state.
Current patch shoud fix problems.

[libvirt] Inconsistency with documentation virDomainGetMaxMemory(NULL)

I was making a some test code to checkout some code before I start on my
brand new Invite/Tender cluster distribution engine(tm ;)
From docs:
Retrieve the maximum amount of physical memory allocated to a domain. If
domain is NULL, then this get the amount of memory reserved to Domain0
i.e. the domain where the application runs.

virDomainPtr domu = virDomainLookupByName(conn, "klant1_gentoo");
printf("%ld\n", virDomainGetMaxMemory(domu));
