This reverts commit 1ce7c1d20cfd5afb26d2dbc88201085d52415d0e, which introduced a significant semantic change to the virDomainGetInfo() API. Additionally, the change was only made to 2 of the 15 virt drivers.
I guess we should probably do this in the stable branch too, since I think it made it into the most recent release.
Erm, the change is out for a while now:
git desc 1ce7c1d20cfd5afb26d2dbc88201085d52415d0e v1.2.6-225-g1ce7c1d
Oh yes, so it is. I'm still inclined to say we should be reverting it as I think it is wrong. The change was based on the misleading field name shown by virsh. The info->memory field shows the current balloon target, and conceptually this should be equal to the max memory if the ballooon driver is not active. As such I think it should be equal to max memory if shutoff too.
Yikes, I forgot to commit this before leaving for travel/vacation. Is it still ok to commit to master? And just to be clear, then cherry pick to 1.2.7-1.2.18 maint branches?
Yes, that sounds like the best way to handle it.
Ok, pushed to master and v1.2.7-maint through v1.2.18-maint. Regards, Jim
