When combining old gcc (4.2.1) and new gcrypt (1.5.2), such as when using the Ports repository on FreeBSD, the build fails with: CC libvirt_driver_la-libvirt.lo cc1: warnings being treated as errors In file included from libvirt.c:58: /usr/local/include/gcrypt.h:1336: warning: 'gcry_ac_io_mode_t' is deprecated [-Wdeprecated-declarations] Relevant part of gcrypt.h: 1333 typedef struct gcry_ac_io 1334 { 1335 /* This is an INTERNAL structure, do NOT use manually. */ 1336 gcry_ac_io_mode_t mode _GCRY_ATTR_INTERNAL; 1337 gcry_ac_io_type_t type _GCRY_ATTR_INTERNAL; 1338 union The sad part is that we aren't even using the deprecated symbols - their mere inclusion in the installed header is provoking the problems. It looks like newer gcc is a bit more tolerant (that is, this is a shortcoming of FreeBSD's use of an older compiler). Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
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.
