The virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD did two jobs in one. First it probed for storage type, then it extracted metadata for the type. It is desirable to be able to separate these jobs, allowing probing without querying metadata, and querying metadata without probing. To prepare for this, split out probing code into a new pair of methods virStorageFileProbeFormatFromFD virStorageFileProbeFormat * src/util/storage_file.c, src/util/storage_file.h, src/libvirt_private.syms: Introduce virStorageFileProbeFormat and virStorageFileProbeFormatFromFD
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.
