The current virStorageFileGet{LVM,SCSI}Key methods return the key as the return value. Unfortunately it is desirable for "NULL" to be a valid return value, as well as an error indicator. Thus the returned key must instead be provided as an out-parameter. When we invoke lvs or scsi_id to extract ID for block devices, we don't want virCommandWait logging errors messages. Thus we must explicitly check 'status != 0', rather than letting virCommandWait do it. Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.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.

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
