The whole point of physmem_total is that libvirt can avoid having to have a bunch of different implementations. Any kind of fix that libvirt could do, can equally be done in the physmem_total, so there's no reason to not rely on physmem_total. So we only need to fix physmem_total, and the musl libc.
The only reason to fix libvirt, is if there's some problem that would prevent us getting the fix into gnulib in an acceptable timeframe.
Fair enough.
I posted a bug report and a patch to bugs-gnulib.
And it was accepted, so I tweaked libvirt's .gnulib submodule to include it. Thanks again for tracking this! https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-April/msg00788.html -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
