A future patch needs to look up pw_gid; but it is wasteful to crawl through getpwuid_r twice for two separate pieces of information, and annoying to copy that much boilerplate code for doing the crawl. The current internal-only virGetUserEnt is also a rather awkward interface; it's easier to just design it to let callers request multiple pieces of data as needed from one traversal. And while at it, I noticed that virGetXDGDirectory could deref NULL if the getpwuid_r lookup fails. * src/util/virutil.c (virGetUserEnt): Alter signature. (virGetUserDirectory, virGetXDGDirectory, virGetUserName): Adjust callers. 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.
