Currently, the deserializer is hardcoded into remote_driver which makes it impossible for admin to use it. One way to achieve a shared implementation (besides moving the code to another module) would be pass @ret_params_val as a void pointer as opposed to the remote_typed_param pointer and add a new extra argument specifying which of those two protocols is being used and typecast the pointer at the function entry. An example from remote_protocol: struct remote_typed_param_value { int type; union { int i; u_int ui; int64_t l; uint64_t ul; double d; int b; remote_nonnull_string s; } remote_typed_param_value_u; }; typedef struct remote_typed_param_value remote_typed_param_value; struct remote_typed_param { remote_nonnull_string field; remote_typed_param_value value; }; That would leave us with a bunch of if-then-elses that needed to be used across the method. This patch takes the other approach using the new datatype introduced in one of earlier commits.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
