Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 00/10] Enable direct use of secondary drivers

Currently the secondary drivers can only be used if you have a connection to a primary hypervisor driver. This series introduces explicit URIs that allow opening a connection that only talks to a specific secondary driver. In the future these URIs will resolve to individual daemons containing those drivers. This also allows us to fix long standing problems with most code that uses secrets internally. We need to pass a virConnectPtr into such code but some call stacks don't have a connection available. In some cases we open a temporary connection to the QEMU driver, but this is suboptimal for deployments without the QEMU driver present. Daniel P. Berrangé (10): storage: move driver registration back to end of the file storage: allow opening with storage:///system and storage:///session URIs network: move driver registration back to end of the file network: allow opening with network:///system and network:///session URIs nwfilter: allow opening with nwfilter:///system URI interface: allow opening with interface:///system and interface:///session URIs nodedev: allow opening with nodedev:///system and nodedev:///session URIs secret: allow opening with secret:///system and secret:///session URIs storage: open secret driver connection at time of use storage: remove virConnectPtr from all backend functions src/interface/interface_backend_netcf.c | 98 ++++++++- src/interface/interface_backend_udev.c | 97 ++++++++- src/network/bridge_driver.c | 185 +++++++++++++---- src/network/bridge_driver_platform.h | 3 + src/node_device/node_device_driver.c | 73 ++++++- src/node_device/node_device_driver.h | 9 + src/node_device/node_device_hal.c | 18 ++ src/node_device/node_device_udev.c | 19 ++ src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c | 83 ++++++++ src/secret/secret_driver.c | 95 +++++++++ src/storage/storage_backend.h | 45 ++-- src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c | 30 +-- src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c | 15 +- src/storage/storage_backend_gluster.c | 9 +- src/storage/storage_backend_iscsi.c | 24 +-- src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c | 38 ++-- src/storage/storage_backend_mpath.c | 5 +- src/storage/storage_backend_rbd.c | 53 ++--- src/storage/storage_backend_scsi.c | 46 +++-- src/storage/storage_backend_sheepdog.c | 33 ++- src/storage/storage_backend_vstorage.c | 10 +- src/storage/storage_backend_zfs.c | 15 +- src/storage/storage_driver.c | 351 ++++++++++++++++++++------------ src/storage/storage_util.c | 146 ++++++------- src/storage/storage_util.h | 39 ++-- tests/storagevolxml2argvtest.c | 7 +- 26 files changed, 1047 insertions(+), 499 deletions(-)
