Some monitor commands may take a very long time to complete. It is not desirable to block other incoming API calls forever. With this change, if an existing API call is holding the job lock, additional API calls will not wait forever. They will time out after a short period of time, allowing application to retry later. * include/libvirt/virterror.h, src/util/virterror.c: Add new VIR_ERR_OPERATION_TIMEOUT error code * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Change to a timed condition variable wait for acquiring the monitor job lock
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
