No thanks to 64-bit windows, with 64-bit pid_t, we have to avoid constructs like 'int pid'. Our API in libvirt-qemu cannot be changed without breaking ABI; but then again, libvirt-qemu can only be used on systems that support UNIX sockets, which rules out Windows (even if qemu could be compiled there) - so for all points on the call chain that interact with this API decision, we require a different variable name to make it clear that we audited the use for safety. Adding a syntax-check rule only solves half the battle; anywhere that uses printf on a pid_t still needs to be converted, but that will be a separate patch. * cfg.mk (sc_correct_id_types): New syntax check. * src/libvirt-qemu.c (virDomainQemuAttach): Document why we didn't use pid_t for pid, and validate for overflow. * include/libvirt/libvirt-qemu.h (virDomainQemuAttach): Tweak name for syntax check. * src/vmware/vmware_conf.c (vmwareExtractPid): Likewise. * src/driver.h (virDrvDomainQemuAttach): Likewise. * tools/virsh.c (cmdQemuAttach): Likewise. * src/remote/qemu_protocol.x (qemu_domain_attach_args): Likewise. * src/qemu_protocol-structs (qemu_domain_attach_args): Likewise. * src/util/cgroup.c (virCgroupPidCode, virCgroupKillInternal): Likewise. * src/qemu/qemu_command.c(qemuParseProcFileStrings): Likewise.

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.

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.
