by Michal Privoznik 14 Nov '20

14 Nov '20

After e4c29e2904 the function has one argument more and the argument that can't be NULL moved from second to third position.

[libvirt PATCH] kbase: Shorten "less verbose QEMU logging" example
by Andrea Bolognani 14 Nov '20

14 Nov '20

Rationale for the changes: * util.dbus produces very little logging, so it doesn't really make sense to filter it out; * util.udev doesn't exist; * access can be filtered out entirely, as nothing very interesting is produced by the only other component in the same package (access.accessdriverpolkit).

[libvirt PATCH] docs: compiling.html: pass -d to xz to decompress
by Daniel P. Berrangé 14 Nov '20

From: Jonathan Watt <jwatt(a)jwatt.org> tar on macOS recognizes XZ compression automatically, but that is not the case for GNU tar (1.32 at least). On Fedora 33 the current instructions result in the following error: $ xz -c libvirt-6.9.0.tar.xz | tar xvf - tar: Archive is compressed.

That is correct for example with the NBD protocol where a missing name actually means the default unnamed export. The thing is that we can't really change --source to be something else than VSH_OT_DATA since it would change the semantics of the virsh command. You probably will need to use it also for the 'name' attribute and switch the name according to the presence of the 'protocol' attribute/option. > When it comes to making these mutually exclusive, we also were confused on > what flags to give them.

Those are two separate things. If it makes sense for a flag to be specified but empty and it impacts behaviour then you need to use VSH_OFLAG_EMPTY_OK. Any non-positional arguments (those which need --) can be made optional. On the other hand that does not say anything about how they can or can't be combined with other options and thus you need to declare that in the code. > If the user provides an empty source without any protocol, but provides > --source-host-* parameters, what should be generated instead?

[PATCH] viridentitytest: Run more frequently
