Following the latter couldn't it just be handled during runtime altogether?
That actually sounds better.

Along those lines I propose this patch below:

+int virFileIsLink(const char *linkpath) +{ + struct stat st; + + if (lstat(linkpath, &st) < 0) + return -errno; + + return S_ISLNK(st.st_mode);
S_ISLNK is only guaranteed to return non-zero for links, not 1. You need to sanitize it: return S_ISLNK(st.st_mode) != 0; or return !!S_ISLNK(st.st_mode);

Also add ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL(1), since lstat(NULL) is invalid. ACK with those two fixes. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
