POSIX allows implementations where PATH_MAX is undefined, leading
to compilation error. Not to mention that even if it is defined,
it is often wasteful in relation to the amount of data being stored.
All clients of vol->key were audited, and found not to care about
whether key is static or dynamic, except for these offenders:
* src/datatypes.h (struct _virStorageVol): Manage key dynamically.
* src/datatypes.c (virReleaseStorageVol): Free key.
(virGetStorageVol): Copy key.
The virConnectPtr struct will cache instances of all other
objects. APIs like virDomainLookupByUUID will return a
cached object, so if you do virDomainLookupByUUID twice in
a row, you'll get the same exact virDomainPtr instance.
This does not have any performance benefit, since the actual
logic in virDomainLookupByUUID (and other APIs returning
virDomainPtr, etc instances) is not short-circuited. All
it does is to ensure there is only one single virDomainPtr
in existance for any given UUID.
The caching has a number of downsides though, all relating
to stale data. If APIs aren't careful to always overwrite
the 'id' field in virDomainPtr it may become out of data.
Likewise for the name field, if a guest is renamed, or if
a guest is deleted, and then a new one created with the
same UUID but different name.
This has been an ongoing, endless source of bugs for all
applications using libvirt from languages with garbage
collection, causing them to get virDomainPtr instances
from long ago with stale data.
The caching is also a waste of memory resources, since
both applications, and language bindings often maintain
their own hashtable caches of object instances.
This patch removes all the hash table caching, so all
APIs return brand new virDomainPtr (etc) object instances.
* src/datatypes.h: Delete all hash tables.
* src/datatypes.c: Remove all object caching code
The public object is called NWFilter but the corresponding private
object is called NWFilterPool. I don't see compelling reasons for this
Pool suffix. One might argue that an NWFilter is a "pool" of rules, etc.
Remove the Pool suffix from NWFilterPool. No functional change included.
This patch adds the implementation of the public API for the network
filtering (ACL) extensions to libvirt.c .
