qemuDomainCreateDeviceRecursive: pass a structure instead of bare path
Currently, all we need to do in qemuDomainCreateDeviceRecursive() is to take given @device, get all kinds of info on it (major & minor numbers, owner, seclabels) and create its copy at a temporary location @path (usually /var/run/libvirt/qemu/$domName.dev), if @device live under /dev. This is, however, very loose condition, as it also means /dev/shm/* is created too. Therefor, we will need to pass more arguments into the function for better decision making (e.g. list of mount points under /dev). Instead of adding more arguments to all the functions (not easily reachable because some functions are callback with strictly defined type), lets just turn this one 'const char *' into a 'struct *'. New "arguments" can be then added at no cost. Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Cedric Bosdonnat <cbosdonnat@suse.com>
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.
