Thanks Daniel for sharing the link. I got the idea and will try to adhere to the standards.
One observation I want to share about "make check", with a fresh branch I see one failure: ----- .....!!!!!!...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 39 FAIL FAIL: libvirtdconftest TEST: capabilityschematest
. . . ======================================= 1 of 63 tests failed Please report to libvir-list@redhat.com ======================================= make[2]: *** [check-TESTS] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/abohra/libvirt_untouched/libvirt/tests' make[1]: *** [check-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/abohra/libvirt_untouched/libvirt/tests' make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
---------------------
The branch with my patch also reports the same result, I have a feeling that this failure may not be because of my commit, but I will double check everything (so far in my test bed I can see new added functions working properly). About the make syntax-check, I will update with the modifications.
Okay, yes sometimes there can be a local (temporary usually because we aim at fixing those too) regression like this, as long as -as you checked- they are not added by your patch set then you should feel free to send your patch(es). But investigating the issue is a good idea too. For example I have a machine where I explicitely disabled IPv6 in /etc/sysctl.conf and one of the tests is also failing predictably on that machine.
