This patch introduces a new event type for the QMP event
DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED, which occurs when the tray of a removable
disk is moved (i.e opened or closed):
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_TRAY_CHANGE
The event's data includes the device alias and the reason
for tray status' changing, which indicates why the tray
status was changed. Thus the callback definition for the event
is:
enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_TRAY_CHANGE_OPEN = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_TRAY_CHANGE_CLOSE,
\#ifdef VIR_ENUM_SENTINELS
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_TRAY_CHANGE_LAST
\#endif
} virDomainEventTrayChangeReason;
typedef void
(*virConnectDomainEventTrayChangeCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
const char *devAlias,
int reason,
void *opaque);

The API definition accepts "flags" argument, however, the
implementation ignores it, though "flags" is unused currently,
we should expose it instead of hard coding, the API
implementation inside hypervisor driver is responsible to check
if the passed "flags" is valid.
As we already link with libvirt.la which contains libvirt_utils.la.
Double linking causes global symbols to be presented twice and
thus confusion. This partially reverts c700613b8d
Unlike .cvsignore under CVS, git allows for ignoring nested

This patch starts the process of elevating the python binding code

Although this is a public API break, it only affects users that
were compiling against *_LAST values, and can be trivially
worked around without impacting compilation against older
headers, by the user defining VIR_ENUM_SENTINELS before using
libvirt.h. It is not an ABI break, since enum values do not
appear as .so entry points. Meanwhile, it prevents users from
using non-stable enum values without explicitly acknowledging
the risk of doing so.

If a disk source gets dropped because it is not accessible,
mgmt application might want to be informed about this. Therefore
we need to emit an event. The event presented in this patch
is however a bit superset of what written above. The reason is simple:
an intention to be easily expanded, e.g. on 'user ejected disk
in guest' events. Therefore, callback gets source string and disk alias
(which should be unique among a domain) and reason (an integer);
The previous API addition allowed traversal up the hierarchy;
this one makes it easier to traverse down the hierarchy.

Gettext annoyingly modifies CPPFLAGS in-place, putting
-I/usr/local/include into the search patch if libintl headers
must be used from that location. But since we must support
automake 1.9.6 which lacks AM_CPPFLAGS, and since CPPFLAGS is used
prior to INCLUDES, this means that the build picks up the _old_
installed libvirt.h in priority to the in-tree version, leading
to all sorts of weird build failures on FreeBSD.
Fix this by teaching configure to undo gettext's actions, but
to keep any changes required by gettext at the end of INCLUDES
after all in-tree locations are used first. Also requires
adding a wrapper Makefile.am and making gnulib-tool create
just gnulib.mk files during the bootstrap process.

Commit cd48c3f4e9 added a Py_ssize_t typedef for Python < 2.7.

Turns out I was right in removing this the first time :) This is

These functions aren't intended to be called directly by users, so mark
them as private.
While we're at it, remove unneeded exception handling, and break some
long lines.
If registering our own event loop implementation written in python,
any handles or timeouts callbacks registered by libvirt C code must
be wrapped in a python function. There is some argument trickery that
makes this all work, by wrapping the user passed opaque value in
a tuple, along with the callback function.
Problem is, the current setup requires the user's event loop to know
about this trickery, rather than just treating the opaque value
as truly opaque.
Fix this in a backwards compatible manner, and adjust the example
python event loop to do things the proper way.
Since we virEventRegisterDefaultImpl is now a public API, callers need
a way to invoke the default registered Handle and Timeout functions. We
already have general functions for these internally, so promote
them to the public API.
v2:
Actually add APIs to libvirt.h
Pure python implementation. The handler callbacks have been altered
a bit compared to the C API: RecvAll doesn't pass length of the data read
since that can be trivially obtained from python string objects, and SendAll
requires the handler to return the string data to send rather than
store the data in a string pointer.
The return values for the python version are different that the C version
of virStreamSend: on success we return a string, an error raises an exception,
and if the stream would block we return int(-2). We need to do this
since strings aren't passed by reference in python.
When an operation started by virDomainBlockPullAll completes (either with
success or with failure), raise an event to indicate the final status. This
allows an API user to avoid polling on virDomainBlockPullInfo if they would
prefer to use the event mechanism.

Detected by Coverity. cpumap was allocated with a value of
(unsigned short)*(int), which is an int computation, and then
promotes to size_t. On a 64-bit platform, this fails if bit
32 of the product is set (because of sign extension giving
a HUGE value to malloc), even though a naive programmer would
assume that since the first value is unsigned, the product
is also unsigned and at most 4GB would be allocated.
Won't bite in practice (the product should never be that large),
but worth using the right types to begin with, so that we are
now computing (unsigned short)*(size_t).
* python/libvirt-override.c (libvirt_virDomainGetVcpus): Use

This introduces a new domain
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_CONTROL_ERROR
Which uses the existing generic callback
typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
void *opaque);
This event is intended to be emitted when there is a failure in
some part of the domain virtualization system. Whether the domain
continues to run/exist after the failure is an implementation
detail specific to the hypervisor.
The idea is that with some types of failure, hypervisors may
prefer to leave the domain running in a "degraded" mode of
operation. For example, if something goes wrong with the QEMU
monitor, it is possible to leave the guest OS running quite
happily. The mgmt app will simply loose the ability todo various
tasks. The mgmt app can then choose how/when to deal with the
failure that occured.

Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange.
py_str() function call PyString_AsString(). As written in documentation,
the caller must not free the returned value, because it points to some
internal structures.
The new type is identical to the three old types that it replaces,
and by creating a common type, this allows future patches to share
common code that manipulates typed parameters.
This change is backwards-compatible in API (recompilation works
without any edits) and ABI (an older client that has not been
