qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive() is called from two places in qemu_driver.c, and qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() is called from the end of qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive(), which is now in qemu_hotplug.c This patch replaces the single call to qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() with two calls to it immediately after return from qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive(). This is only done if the return from that function is exactly 0, in order to exactly preserve previous behavior. Removing that one call from qemuDomainDetachDeviceList() will permit us to call it from the test driver hotplug test, replacing the separate calls to qemuDomainDetachDeviceDiskLive(), qemuDomainDetachChrDevice(), qemuDomainDetachShmemDevice() and qemuDomainDetachWatchdog(). We want to do this so that part of the common functionality of those three functions (and the rest of the device-specific Detach functions) can be pulled up into qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive() without breaking the test. (This is done in the next patch). NB: Almost certainly this is "not the best place" to call qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() (actually, it is provably the *wrong* place), since it's purpose is to retrieve an "up to date" list of aliases for all devices from qemu, and if the guest OS hasn't yet processed the detach request, the now-being-removed device may still be on that list. It would arguably be better to instead call qemuDomainUpdateDevicesList() later during the response to the DEVICE_DELETED event for the device. But removing the call from the current point in the detach could have some unforeseen ill effect due to changed timing, so the change to move it into qemuDomainRemove*Device() will be done in a separate patch (in order to make it easily revertible in case it causes a regression).

Libvirt API for virtualization
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.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
Further information about the libvirt project can be found on the website:
License
The libvirt C API is distributed under the terms of GNU Lesser General
Public License, version 2.1 (or later). Some parts of the code that are
not part of the C library may have the more restrictive GNU General
Public License, version 2.1 (or later). See the files COPYING.LESSER
and COPYING for full license terms & conditions.
Installation
Libvirt uses the GNU Autotools build system, so in general can be built and installed with the usual commands. For example, to build in a manner that is suitable for installing as root, use:
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
$ make
$ sudo make install
While to build & install as an unprivileged user
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr
$ make
$ make install
The libvirt code relies on a large number of 3rd party libraries. These will
be detected during execution of the configure script and a summary printed
which lists any missing (optional) dependencies.
Contributing
The libvirt project welcomes contributions in many ways. For most components the best way to contribute is to send patches to the primary development mailing list. Further guidance on this can be found on the website:
https://libvirt.org/contribute.html
Contact
The libvirt project has two primary mailing lists:
- libvirt-users@redhat.com (for user discussions)
- libvir-list@redhat.com (for development only)
