src/guestfs-internal-frontend.h has a #define to replace use

src/guestfs-internal-frontend.h has a #define to replace use
of 'program_name' with something that is defined, so this
should not be required unless the header includes are not
right somewhere.
It is required, because gnulib itself explicitly defines an extern
char *program_name. See gnulib/lib/error.c:118

It is required, because gnulib itself explicitly defines an extern
char *program_name. See gnulib/lib/error.c:118
What actually happens in gnulib's error.c is:
#ifdef _LIBC
/* In the GNU C library, there is a predefined variable for this. */
# define program_name program_invocation_name
#endif
which on glibc causes all uses of `program_name' in the error.c source
to refer to refer to a string that glibc defines called
`program_invocation_name':
extern char *program_invocation_name; /* defined in glibc, same as argv[0]*/
On non-glibc, error.c says:
/* The calling program should define program_name and set it to the
name of the executing program. */
extern char *program_name;
This indicates to me that we shouldn't define `program_name' as a symbol
in libguestfs. Instead every libguestfs-using program should define
it. For example, virt-df (df/main.c) would have:
#if /* this is Mac OS X */
char *program_name = "virt-df";
#endif
That sucks a lot.
I think the alternative is that you find a similar symbol defined by
Mac OS X that gives you the value of argv[0], and then send a patch to
gnulib which does:
#if /* this is Mac OS X */
#define program_name whatever_mac_os_x_defines_as_program_name
#endif
My reading is that something like this might work, untested of course:
#if /* this is Mac OS X */
#define program_name (((char **)*_NSGetArgv())[0])
#endif

That was my first approach, but adding a Darwin-specific ifdef to
every executable shipped with libguestfs seemed much more intrusive
than sneaking it in as a symbol in the library. I do see your point,
though.
Proposing a patch to gnulib, even should they accept it, does not fix
the underlying issue, which is, essentially, that gnulib requires that
symbol and libguestfs binaries don't supply it. There might be another
OS that trips over this, after all.
So, ugly as it is, I think I will attempt to add the program_name
definition where necessary, in the form of:
#if !_LIBC /* feels right to use the same condition as gnulib does */
char *program_name = name-of-the-binary
#endif
Unless of course the ugliness of the solution is not acceptable to you
as the owner.
(I do wish that you haven't gone away from using the progname module
in 2013; the problem would be nonexistent.)
I think the alternative is that you find a similar symbol defined by
Mac OS X that gives you the value of argv[0], and then send a patch to
gnulib which does:
#if /* this is Mac OS X */
#define program_name whatever_mac_os_x_defines_as_program_name

My reading is that something like this might work, untested of course:
#if /* this is Mac OS X */
#define program_name (((char **)*_NSGetArgv())[0])
#endif
Unfortunately I lack the knowledge to verify whether this is
applicable, so I'd rather use the blunt-but-guaranteed approach.
Unless there is someone else more capable and willing to fix it in a
prettier way, of course!

But it would fix it for Mac OS X, which is better than nothing.
As a test, can you see if adding some variation of:
#if /* this is Mac OS X */
#define program_name (((char **)*_NSGetArgv())[0])
#endif
to libguestfs's gnulib/lib/error.h fixes the problem?
It'll save you a lot of time if it does work.

It compiles and libguestfs-test-tool doesn't bomb afterwards, if that
is a sufficient definition of "working".

Sounds pretty good to me.
Please send a final patch to gnulib/lib/error.h and I'll forward it to
the gnulib people for you (or you can send it yourself if you want).
[In any case, the gnulib error() function is only used in a very few
places in the libguestfs virt-* tools. I count just 14 uses, ignoring
tests. The main reason we need all this seems to be because the
gnulib error module is used by other gnulib modules that we actually
care about.]

In any case, we cannot accept this patch, since it patches a file

As Pino says it's probably better to fix these. However I accepted
this patch and have pushed it upstream.
Thanks,
Rich.

This is vulnerable to shell meta characters in the user supplied
"mountpoint" string. I dont know if it is a security exploit in
the context of libguestfs alone, but it could cause problems when
considered apps using libguestfs. Any use of shell should really
be avoided when dealing with user supplied input.
Regards,
Daniel

This should rather be a configure check, instead of hardcoding how a
libc behaves.
Also, what does the third parameter represent?

This should rather be a configure check, instead of hardcoding how a
libc behaves.
Actually you can just unconditionally pass the 3rd parameter on all
platforms. See this commit in libvirt for rationale:
commit 9fa3a8ab6fd82ad2f5a14b490696085061418718
Author: Doug Goldstein <cardoe(a)cardoe.com>
Date: Wed Oct 30 11:22:58 2013 -0500
MacOS: Handle changes to xdrproc_t definition
With Mac OS X 10.9, xdrproc_t is no longer defined as:
typedef bool_t (*xdrproc_t)(XDR *, ...);
but instead as:
typdef bool_t (*xdrproc_t)(XDR *, void *, unsigned int);
For reference, Linux systems typically define it as:
typedef bool_t (*xdrproc_t)(XDR *, void *, ...);
The rationale explained in the header is that using a vararg is
incorrect and has a potential to change the ABI slightly do to compiler
optimizations taken and the undefined behavior. They decided
to specify the exact number of parameters and for compatibility with old
code decided to make the signature require 3 arguments. The third
argument is ignored for cases that its not used and its recommended to
supply a 0.
Regards,
Daniel
