The current API for domain events has a number of problems
- Only allows for domain lifecycle change events
- Does not allow the same callback to be registered multiple times
- Does not allow filtering of events to a specific domain
This introduces a new more general purpose domain events API
typedef enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE = 0, /* virConnectDomainEventCallback */
...more events later..
}
int virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom, /* Optional, to filter */
int eventID,
virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback cb,
void *opaque,
virFreeCallback freecb);
int virConnectDomainEventDeregisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
int callbackID);
Since different event types can received different data in the callback,
the API is defined with a generic callback. Specific events will each
have a custom signature for their callback. Thus when registering an
event it is neccessary to cast the callback to the generic signature
eg
int myDomainEventCallback(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int event,
int detail,
void *opaque)
{
...
}
virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(conn, NULL,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK(myDomainEventCallback)
NULL, NULL);
The VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK() macro simply does a "bad" cast
to the generic signature

If esxVI_String_DeepCopyValue or esxVI_SelectionSpec_AppendToList fail
then selectionSpec would leak. Add a free call in the failure path to
fix the leak.
This is actually a consequence of the reworked required parameter
checking: Unify the required parameter check into a Validate function
instead of doing it separately im the (de)serialization part.
The required parameter checking for the mapped methods parameter was
done in the (de)serialize functions before. Now it's explicitly done
in the mapped method itself.
Another warning caught by coverity. Continue to perform best-effort
closing and resource release, but warn the caller about the failure.

Currently only the faultcode and faultstring are deserialized, the
detail part is ignored. The implementation of many new SOAP types
would be necessary to deserialize the detail part correctly. As an
intermediate solution the raw response is dumped to the debug log.
The MAC addresses with 00:50:56 prefix are split into several ranges:
00:50:56:00:00:00 - 00:50:56:3f:ff:ff 'static' range (manually assigned)
00:50:56:80:00:00 - 00:50:56:bf:ff:ff 'vpx' range (assigned by a VI Client)
Erroneously the 'vpx' range was assumed to be larger and to occupy the
remaining addresses of the 00:50:56 prefix that are not part of the 'static'
range.
00:50:56 was used as prefix for generated MAC addresses, this is not possible
anymore, because there are gaps in the allowed ranges. Therefore, change the
prefix to 00:0c:29 which is the prefix for auto generated MAC addresses anyway.
Allow arbitrary MAC addresses to be used and set the checkMACAddress VMX option
to false in case the MAC address doesn't fall into any predefined range.
* docs/drvesx.html.in: update website accordingly
* src/esx/esx_driver.c: set the auto generation prefix to 00:0c:29
* src/esx/esx_vmx.c: fix MAC address range handling and allow arbitrary MAC
addresses
* tests/vmx2xml*, tests/xml2vmx*: add some basic MAC address range tests
The data passed to the callback is not guaranteed to be zero terminated,
take care of that by coping the data and adding a zero terminator.
Also dump the data for other types than CURLINFO_TEXT.
Set CURLOPT_VERBOSE to 1 so the debug callback is called when enabled.
A domain with virtualHW version 4 is allowed on an ESX 4.0 server.
If a domain is migrated from an ESX 3.5 server to an ESX 4.0 server
then the virtualHW version stays the same. So a ESX 4.0 server can
host domains with virtualHW version 4.
Set up the types for the domainMemoryStats function and insert it into the
virDriver structure definition. Because of static initializers, update
every driver and set the new field to NULL.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: new API
* src/driver.h src/*/*_driver.c src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: add the new
entry to the driver structure
* python/generator.py: fix compiler errors, the actual python binding is
implemented later
If a virtual machine is destroyed on a ESX server then immediately
undefining this virtual machine on a vCenter may fail, because the
vCenter has not been informed about the status change yet. Therefore,
destroy a virtual machine on a vCenter if available, so the vCenter
is up-to-date when the virtual machine should be undefined.
Undefining a virtual machine on an ESX server leaves a orphan on the
vCenter behind. So undefine a virtual machine on a vCenter if available
to fix this problem.
If an ESX host is managed by a vCenter, it knows the IP address of the
vCenter. Setting the vCenter query parameter to * allows to connect to the
vCenter known to an ESX host without the need to specify its IP address
or hostname explicitly.
esxDomainLookupByUUID() and esxDomainIsActive() lookup a domain by asking
ESX for all known domains and searching manually for the one with the
matching UUID. This is inefficient. The VI API allows to lookup by UUID
directly: FindByUuid().
* src/esx/esx_driver.c: change esxDomainLookupByUUID() and esxDomainIsActive()
to use esxVI_LookupVirtualMachineByUuid(), also reorder some functions to
keep them in sync with the driver struct
Questions can block tasks, to handle them automatically the driver can answers
them with the default answer. The auto_answer query parameter allows to enable
this automatic question handling.

inputs, fail right away. Do not "goto failure" where a NULL
input pointer would be dereferenced.
