[libvirt] [Patch V2] Fix initialization of current vcpus in libxl driver
by Jim Fehlig 24 May '11

24 May '11

The cur_vcpus member of struct libxl_domain_build_info was incorrectly initialized to the number of vcpus, when it should have been interpreted as a bitmap, where bit X corresponds to online/offline status of vcpuX. To complicate matters, cur_vcpus is an int, so only 32 vcpus can be set online. Add a check to ensure vcpus does not exceed this limit. V2: Eric Blake noted a compilation pitfal when '1 << 32' on an int.

[libvirt] [PATCH] build: fix VIR_DEBUG on mingw
by Eric Blake 24 May '11

24 May '11

This will allow libvirt to manage backing file security.

[libvirt] API Proposal: virDomainBlockPull() (Block device streaming) V4
by Adam Litke 24 May '11

Here is version 4 of the BlockStream API (now called BlockPull). Hopefully this version addresses all remaining concerns and I can begin to work on the code. Does everyone approve of the new name 'virDomainBlockPull'? Changes since V3: - Renamed the API to 'Block Pull' to emphasize the effect of the API over its method of operation. - Changed virDomainGetBlockPullInfo() to accept a path argument and to return information about that path alone. - Added a new virDomainEvent to report final status when using CONTINUOUS mode. /* * Block Pull API */ typedef enum { /* * If set, virDomainBlockPull() will operate on the entire device in the * background.
