glibc 2.13.90 has obsoleted its rpc implementation in favour of the one provided by the TI-RPC library: > * The RPC implementation in libc is obsoleted. Old programs keep working > but new programs cannot be linked with the routines in libc anymore. > Programs in need of RPC functionality must be linked against TI-RPC. > The TI-RPC implemtation is IPv6 enabled and there are other benefits. > > Visible changes of this change include (obviously) the inability to > link > programs using RPC functions without referencing the TI-RPC library, > the > removal of the RPC headers from the glibc headers, and the lack of > symbols defined in <rpc/netdb.h> when <netdb.h> is installed. > Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. (from glibc NEWS) Thus with recent glibc, we need to try linking with -ltirpc when looking for the XDR functions. The daemon also needs to use XDR_CFLAGS to be able to find the XDR headers stored in /usr/include/tirpc. When using TI-RPC, there are some warnings about redundant declarations, but the fix probably belongs in other modules: /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/rpcent.h:68:13: warning: redundant redeclaration of 'setrpcent' [-Wredundant-decls] /usr/include/rpc/netdb.h:53:13: note: previous declaration of 'setrpcent' was here /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/rpcent.h:69:13: warning: redundant redeclaration of 'endrpcent' [-Wredundant-decls] /usr/include/rpc/netdb.h:54:13: note: previous declaration of 'endrpcent' was here /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/rpc.h:84:12: warning: redundant redeclaration of 'bindresvport' [-Wredundant-decls] /usr/include/netinet/in.h:440:12: note: previous declaration of 'bindresvport' was here
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.
