Commit 34e8f63a3 altered virfile.o to drag in additional symbols, which in turn led to pulling in other .o files and eventually causing a link failure when systemtap probes are enabled, such as: ./.libs/libvirt_util.a(libvirt_util_la-event_poll.o): In function `virEventPollRunOnce': /home/dummy/libvirt/src/util/event_poll.c:614: undefined reference to `libvirt_event_poll_run_semaphore' ./.libs/libvirt_util.a(libvirt_util_la-event_poll.o):(.note.stapsdt+0x24): undefined reference to `libvirt_event_poll_add_handle_semaphore' Even though libvirt_iohelper and libvirt_parthelper don't directly use the portion of virfile.o that drags in probing, it was easier to satisfy the linker and get the build back up, than to figure out whether it is even possible or worth trying to disentangle the mess. * src/Makefile.am (libvirt_iohelper_LDADD) (libvirt_parthelper_LDADD): Use libvirt_probes.lo when needed.
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.
