The virDomainDefParse* and virDomainDefFormat* methods both accept the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags defined in the public API, along with a set of other VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags defined in domain_conf.c. This is seriously confusing & error prone for a number of reasons: - VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE and VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU are only relevant for the formatting operation - Some of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags only apply to parse or to format, but not both. This patch cleanly separates out the flags. There are two distint VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_* and VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_* flags that are used by the corresponding methods. The VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags received via public API calls must be converted to the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_* flags where needed. The various calls to virDomainDefParse which hardcoded the use of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE flag change to use the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_INACTIVE flag.
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.
