[PATCH v2] launch: add support for autodetection of appliance image format
by Pavel Butsykin
This feature allows you to use different image formats for the fixed
appliance. The raw format is used by default.

[PATCH] builder: use the template arch when caching all templates
by Pino Toscano
When caching all the templates, use the architecture of each template,
instead of the architecture passed as --arch (or the host architecture,
as default). This way, the right destination filename will be used.
Fixes commit b1cf6246f3c80762cf27dbdb24168589a34daf00.
Thanks to: Erik Skultety.

virt-customize kernel question
by ANDRES POZO MUNOZ
Hi,
I’m facing some problem trying to install some software in an image with virt-customize.
The package I’m trying to install uses some script to check dependencies and verifies the linux-headers-4.xxxxx are installed in the guest system.
The problem is that it uses the ‘uname –r’ command to obtain the kernel version, and that command seems to be replying with the host kernel version instead the guest one.
Could that be the scenario? When the image is booted, the default kernel used is the host’s?
Is there any option (via config or something like that) to boot the image kernel so ‘uname –r’ can provide the right info? (both host and guest are the same architecture).
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Andrés

virt-customize networking question
by ANDRES POZO MUNOZ
Hi,
A quick question about a problem I’m facing.
I want to customize some image running a customization script with virt-customize.
Everything works fine, except the fact that I don’t have a DHCP server in the network (virt-customize relies on DHCP to assign the IP when it boots the image, right?) and all the commands accessing the network are failing.
Is there any option (via config or something like that) to configure an static IP in the image?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Andrés

[PATCH 0/1] RFC: switch from YAJL to Jansson
by Pino Toscano
Hi,
recently, there was a discussion in the development list of libvirt on
switching to a different JSON library than YAJL [1]. Since we use YAJL,
and the points there IMHO apply to libguestfs as well, I decided to give
a try in switching to Jansson [2].
The result IMHO is nice, with the additional APIs of Jansson that
simplify some of our code. Unlike with YAJL, I did not set a minimum
required version, as I did not use any feature in newer versions (simply
because there was no need for them), so even older versions should work.
Of course the test suite works for me, although it does not cover the
LDM APIs.
What do you think?

RFE: ctime byte-for-byte reproducible qcow2 ext2/3/4 FS
by Marc Pawlowsky
Problem: Want to be able to produce a qcow2 file with multiple ext4
File Systems.
Days later want to reproduce the production of the qcow2 and have the
exact same byte-for-byte file, to prove my build is reproducible.
Currently the ctime attributes of the inodes will differ and thus the
qcow2 files will differ. Since the file times are subsecond the trick
of setting the system time and chmoding the files will not work.
In
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47440618/changing-qcow2-st-ctime
I mention how debugfs can be used to change the ctimes.
Two possible usages come to mind:
1. A global flag that would indicate the ctime that should be used
for all file operations, e.g. a fake system clock.
2. A new command to specifically change the ctime, like debugfs's
set_inode_field.
Thanks

QEMU does not accept options unrecognized by the block driver

[nbdkit PATCH] file: Diagnose a missing file earlier
by Eric Blake
If a user typos the filename for the file plugin, they do not
find out about it until later when the first client gets an
abrupt hangup, when file_open() fails to open things. Better
is to avoid starting a server at all if the file doesn't exist
yet.
While at it, avoid a memory leak if the caller passes a file=
argument more than once.
