This fixes a misleading error message saying the libnl package
needs to be installed, when it's really the libnl-devel package
needing to be installed.
The output was previously:
-c | --connect <uri> hypervisor connection URI
-r | --readonly connect readonly
-d | --debug <num> debug level [0-5]
-h | --help this help
-q | --quiet quiet mode
-t | --timing print timing information
-l | --log <file> output logging to file
-v | --version[=short] program version
-V | --version=long version and full options
(note the blank line between the --version types)
This patch removes the extra blank line.
The virt-mem program is no longer shipped, but was still being
referenced at the bottom of the virsh and libvirtd man pages.
This patch removes it from those man pages, addressing
BZ# 639603:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=639603
Reordered the bindings into alphabetical order, added a link to
the php-libvirt source on Github, plus gave the direct package
names needed for Python usage on RHEL/Fedora, and Ubuntu.
The default location for the XML catalog file, /etc/xml/catalog,
used when validating the generated html docs, isn't correct for
MacOS X.
This commit adds an option to the configure script, allowing the
default to be overridden:
--with-xml-catalog-file=/path/to/xml/catalog/file
Previously, only the API docs were installed, rather than the
complete documentation set. This commit ensures the complete
documentation set is installed.
This 1-liner was actually written by Eric Blake, over IRC. It
addresses a compilation failure in make dist and make rpm for
systems without the dtrace/systemtap development libraries
installed.
Disabling these two drivers on MacOS X, where they are known to
not work, allows libvirt (including the daemon) to compile without
any further changes.
This fixes a small logic bug, where passing --without-macvtap
on the configure line, or otherwise indicating a lack of
support for macvtap, causes configure to bail.
The configure script was breaking on MacOS X unless passed:
--without-storage-mpath
This patch leverages Stefan Bergers earlier work for nwfilter,
so non-linux systems don't even attempt to build multipath.
Prior to this patch, the ChangeLog generation was hard coded to use
"awk", when it should have been using the AWK variable set by our
build system.
This breaks compilation on a newly installed OS X system, where the
default path has the Mac (non GNU) awk in the default search PATH
before any installed GNU awk (gawk).
This reverses commit 04c3704, which added a define to nwfilter to
allow libvirtd compilation on Mac OS X. Stefan Bergers commit, 2e7294d,
is the proper solution, removing the requirement for nwfilter on non-Linux.
Mac OS X provides an "/Applications" folder, not an "/Application" folder,
so installed VirtualBox wasn't being detected by default.
This 1 character patch fixes this.
Tweaked the PolicyKit documentation improvement patch submitted
by Patrick Dignan.
Additionally, removed the reference to PolicyKit.conf, which is
no longer used by PolicyKit, plus added a link to the expanded
PolicyKit example page on the wiki.
Added a workable initial page for the libvirt Application
Development Guide, giving the online viewable options +
the available download ones (pdf, epub, srpm).
Added a link to the PDF to the main Downloads page, plus
neatened the html tags throughout the page as they
were a bit of a mess.
Added --enable-compile-warnings=error to the autogen line,
as suggested by Eric Blake.
This patch removes the individual author names from the libvirtd and virsh
man pages, instead referring to the main AUTHORS file distributed with
libvirt. This approach is needed, as we can't guarantee unicode support
across all versions of pod2man used with libvirt.
Additionally, this patch includes the libvirtd man page in the spec file
used with "make rpm". Without this patch "make rpm" is broken.
This patch adds a new --details option to the virsh vol-list
command, making its output more useful when many luns are
present.
Addresses BZ # 605543

This patch adds a new --details option to the virsh pool-list
command, making its output more useful to people who use virsh
for significant lengths of time.
Addresses BZ # 605543
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=605543
This patch adds the persistence status (yes/no) to the output of the virsh
dominfo and pool-info commands. This patch also adds the autostart status
to the output of the virsh pool-info command.
Red Hat BZ for this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=603696
Presently the vol-key command only supports being provided with
a volume path.
This patch adds support for providing it with a pool and volume
identifier pair as well.
virsh # vol-key --pool <pool-name-or-uuid> <vol-name-or-path>
This patch adds two new parameters to the vol-create-as command:
--backing-vol <volume-name-or-key-or-path>
--backing-vol-format <format-of-backing-vol>
virsh # vol-create-as guest_images_lvm snapvol1 5G --backing-vol \
rhel6vm1lun1
Vol snapvol1 created
virsh # vol-create-as image_dir qcow2snap2 5G --format qcow2 \
--backing-vol imagevol1.qcow2 \
--backing-vol-format qcow2
Vol qcow2snap2 created
Additionally, the virsh man page update fixes incorrect snapshot
parameters that were included in my prior bulk volume command patch.
This patch adds a new "vol-pool" command to virsh, to round out the
identifier conversion functions for volumes in virsh. Now it is
possible to work with volumes when starting from just a volume key
or volume path.
When creating pools from dedicated disks, the existing pool-define-as
and pool-create-as commands are a bit non-optimal.
Ideally, a person would be able to specify all of the required options
directly on the command line instead of having to edit the XML.
At the moment, there is no way to specify the format type (ie gpt) so it
gets included in the XML the pool is constructed with.
Please find attached a simple (tested) patch to add an optional
"--source-format 'type'" to virsh. This is patched against current git
master and will apply cleanly.
Also created a Red Hat BZ ticket for this (#597790) for tracking.
This is just a trivial patch to virsh.pod (from git master). It adds the
following pieces to the virsh man page:
+ Shows the --inactive and --all optional parameters for the list
command.
Closes Bugzilla #575512, reported by Renich Bon Ciric
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=575512
+ Corrects the existing description of the list command, to now say
that only running domains are listed if no domains are specified.
The man page up until this point has said all domains are listed if
no domains are specified, which is incorrect.
+ Adds the "shut off" state to the list of states for the list
command.
+ Adds a missing =back around line 755, that pod2man was complaining
was missing.
