API 概要

このセクションは libguestfs API の簡単な概要を示します。 一緒に呼ばれるグループ API を試みます。これは、このマニュアルのメインセクションにおいて個々の呼び出しに関して読む必要が無くなります。

ハンドル

libguestfs 呼び出しを使用する前に、ハンドルを作成する必要があります。そして、少なくとも 1 つのディスクイメージをハンドルを追加する必要があります。続けて、ハンドルを開始して、好きな操作を実行します。最後に、ハンドルを閉じます。利便性のため、ハンドル変数の名前を 1 文字の "g" を使用します。もちろん、好きな名前を使うことができます。

libguestfs を使用しているすべてのプログラムの一般的な構造はこのようなものです:

 guestfs_h *g = guestfs_create ();
 
 /* 複数のディスクイメージがあれば、その回数だけ
  * guestfs_add_drive を呼び出します。
  */
 guestfs_add_drive (g, "guest.img");
 
 /* 大抵の操作呼び出しはハンドル 'g' を開始するまでうまく
  * 機能しません。ドライブを追加した「後」、他のコマンド
  * を実行する「前」にこれを行う必要があります。
  */
 guestfs_launch (g);
 
 /* Either: examine what partitions, LVs etc are available: */
 char **partitions = guestfs_list_partitions (g);
 char **logvols = guestfs_lvs (g);
 
 /* Or: ask libguestfs to find filesystems for you: */
 char **filesystems = guestfs_list_filesystems (g);
 
 /* Or: use inspection (see INSPECTION section below). */
 
 /* To access a filesystem in the image, you must mount it. */
 guestfs_mount (g, "/dev/sda1", "/");
 
 /* これで、仮想マシンのイメージにおいて、ファイルシステムの
  * アクションを実行できます。
  */
 guestfs_touch (g, "/hello");
 
 /* ディスクを同期します。これは guestfs_launch の反対です。 */
 guestfs_shutdown (g);
 
 /* ハンドル 'g' を閉じて開放します。 */
 guestfs_close (g);

The code above doesn't include any error checking. In real code you should check return values carefully for errors. In general all functions that return integers return "-1" on error, and all functions that return pointers return "NULL" on error. See section "ERROR HANDLING" below for how to handle errors, and consult the documentation for each function call below to see precisely how they return error indications.

The code above does not free(3) the strings and arrays returned from functions. Consult the documentation for each function to find out how to free the return value.

See guestfs-examples(3) for fully worked examples.

ディスクイメージ

イメージファイル名 (上の例では "guest.img") は、仮想マシンのディスクイメージ、物理ハードディスクの dd(1) コピー、実際のブロックデバイス、単に posix_fallocate(3) から作成した 0 の空ファイルがありえます。libguestfs はこれらすべてに役に立つことをさせます。

近代的なコードにおいてドライブを追加するために使用する呼び出しは "guestfs_add_drive_opts" です。書き込み許可、raw 形式指定にて、ディスクイメージを追加するには、次を実行します:

 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         -1);

以下を使用して、読み込み専用のディスクを追加できます:

 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_READONLY, 1,
                         -1);

or by calling the older function "guestfs_add_drive_ro". If you use the readonly flag, libguestfs won't modify the file. (See also "DISK IMAGE FORMATS" below).

ディスクイメージが使用中ならば、たとえば仮想マシンにより使用されているならば、特に注意してください。読み書き可能で追加することにより、ほぼ確実にディスク破損を引き起こします。一方、読み込み専用で追加することは安全です。

You should usually add at least one disk image, and you may add multiple disk images. If adding multiple disk images, they usually have to be "related", ie. from the same guest. In the API, the disk images are usually referred to as /dev/sda (for the first one you added), /dev/sdb (for the second one you added), etc.

一度 "guestfs_launch" が呼び出されると、これ以上イメージを追加することはできません。それらを追加するためには、デバイス名の一覧を取得するために "guestfs_list_devices" を呼び出せます。以下の "ブロックデバイス命名法" を参照してください。

There are slightly different rules when hotplugging disks (in libguestfs ≥ 1.20). See "HOTPLUGGING" below.

マウント

Before you can read or write files, create directories and so on in a disk image that contains filesystems, you have to mount those filesystems using "guestfs_mount" or "guestfs_mount_ro". If you already know that a disk image contains (for example) one partition with a filesystem on that partition, then you can mount it directly:

 guestfs_mount (g, "/dev/sda1", "/");

where /dev/sda1 means literally the first partition (1) of the first disk image that we added (/dev/sda). If the disk contains Linux LVM2 logical volumes you could refer to those instead (eg. /dev/VG/LV). Note that these are libguestfs virtual devices, and are nothing to do with host devices.

If you are given a disk image and you don’t know what it contains then you have to find out. Libguestfs can do that too: use "guestfs_list_partitions" and "guestfs_lvs" to list possible partitions and LVs, and either try mounting each to see what is mountable, or else examine them with "guestfs_vfs_type" or "guestfs_file". To list just filesystems, use "guestfs_list_filesystems".

Libguestfs also has a set of APIs for inspection of unknown disk images (see "INSPECTION" below). You might also want to look at higher level programs built on top of libguestfs, in particular virt-inspector(1).

ファイルシステムを読み込み専用でマウントするには "guestfs_mount_ro" を使用します。いくつかの他の変種 "guestfs_mount_*" 呼び出しがあります。

ファイルシステムのアクセスおよび変更

libguestfs API の大半は、マウントされたファイルシステムにあるファイル、ディレクトリー、シンボリックリンクなどを参照および変更するためのかなり低レベルな関数呼び出しから構成されます。このマニュアルページにおいて以下に詳細に一覧化されている、そのような呼び出しは 100 以上あります。この概要においてすべてを取り扱うことは考えていません。

"/" から始まり、マウントポイントを含む完全パスとしてファイル名を指定します。

たとえば、"/" にファイルシステムをマウントして、"etc/passwd" というファイルを読み込みたければ、次のようにできます:

 char *data = guestfs_cat (g, "/etc/passwd");

これは、ファイルの完全な内容を含む(いくつかの条件とともに: 以下の "ダウンロード" 参照)新しく割り当てられたバッファーとして "data" を返します。もしくは、エラーがあれば "NULL" を返します。

もう 1 つの例として、ファイルシステムに "var" という名前の最上位ディレクトリーを作成するには、次のようにします:

 guestfs_mkdir (g, "/var");

シンボリックリンクを作成するには次のようにできます:

 guestfs_ln_s (g, "/etc/init.d/portmap",
               "/etc/rc3.d/S30portmap");

libguestfs は相対パスの使用を拒否します。現在の作業ディレクトリーという概念がありません。

libguestfs は多くの状況においてエラーを返します。たとえば、ファイルシステムが書き込みできない場合です。または、要求したファイルやディレクトリーが存在しない場合です。 C API (ここにドキュメント化されています) を使用しているならば、各呼び出しの後でそれらのエラー条件を確認する必要があります。(他の言語バインドは、これらのエラーを例外の中に含めてください。)

ファイルの書き込みはハンドルごとの umask により影響されます。"guestfs_umask" を呼び出すことにより設定され、初期値は 022 です。 "UMASK" 参照。

Since libguestfs 1.18, it is possible to mount the libguestfs filesystem on a local directory, subject to some restrictions. See "MOUNT LOCAL" below.

パーティション

libguestfs はディスクイメージにあるパーティションテーブルを読み込み、作成、変更するための API 呼び出しがあります。

ディスク全体に単一のパーティションを作成したいという一般的な場合、 "guestfs_part_disk" 呼び出しを使用できます:

 const char *parttype = "mbr";
 if (disk_is_larger_than_2TB)
   parttype = "gpt";
 guestfs_part_disk (g, "/dev/sda", parttype);

以前ディスクイメージにあったものを明示的にすべて効果的に完全消去します。

LVM2

libguestfs は "guestfs_lvcreate" および "guestfs_vgremove" のような、大部分の LVM2 API にアクセスできます。物理ボリューム、ボリュームグループ、論理ボリュームの概念になじみがなければ、役に立たないかもしれません。

この著者はオンラインで http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ にある LVM HOWTO を読むことを強く推奨します。

ダウンロード

Use "guestfs_cat" to download small, text only files. This call cannot handle files containing any ASCII NUL ("\0") characters. However the API is very simple to use.

"guestfs_read_file" can be used to read files which contain arbitrary 8 bit data, since it returns a (pointer, size) pair.

"guestfs_download" can be used to download any file, with no limits on content or size.

複数のファイルをダウンロードするには "guestfs_tar_out" および "guestfs_tgz_out" を参照してください。

アップロード方法

固定的な内容を持つ小さなファイルを書き込むには、"guestfs_write" を使用します。すべて 0 のファイルを作成するには、"guestfs_truncate_size" (スパース) または "guestfs_fallocate64" (すべてのブロックを割り当て済み) を使用します。テストファイルを作成するためのさまざまな他の関数があります。たとえば、 "guestfs_fill" や "guestfs_fill_pattern" があります。

To upload a single file, use "guestfs_upload". This call has no limits on file content or size.

複数のファイルをアップロードするには、"guestfs_tar_in" および "guestfs_tgz_in" を参照してください。

However the fastest way to upload large numbers of arbitrary files is to turn them into a squashfs or CD ISO (see mksquashfs(8) and mkisofs(8)), then attach this using "guestfs_add_drive_ro". If you add the drive in a predictable way (eg. adding it last after all other drives) then you can get the device name from "guestfs_list_devices" and mount it directly using "guestfs_mount_ro". Note that squashfs images are sometimes non-portable between kernel versions, and they don't support labels or UUIDs. If you want to pre-build an image or you need to mount it using a label or UUID, use an ISO image instead.

コピー方法

ファイルとデバイスの間でコピーして、仮想マシンのファイルシステムと入出力するための、さまざまなコマンドがあります。以下の表はその概要です。

ファイルからファイル
単一のファイルをコピーするには "guestfs_cp" を使用します、またはディレクトリーを再帰的にコピーするには "guestfs_cp_a" を使用します。

To copy part of a file (offset and size) use "guestfs_copy_file_to_file".

ファイルからデバイス
デバイスからファイル
デバイスからデバイス
"guestfs_copy_file_to_device", "guestfs_copy_device_to_file", または "guestfs_copy_device_to_device" を使用してください。

例: 論理ボリュームの内容の複製:

 guestfs_copy_device_to_device (g,
         "/dev/VG/Original", "/dev/VG/Copy",
         /* -1 marks the end of the list of optional parameters */
         -1);
    

The destination (/dev/VG/Copy) must be at least as large as the source (/dev/VG/Original). To copy less than the whole source device, use the optional "size" parameter:

 guestfs_copy_device_to_device (g,
         "/dev/VG/Original", "/dev/VG/Copy",
         GUESTFS_COPY_DEVICE_TO_DEVICE_SIZE, 10000,
         -1);
    
ホストのファイルからファイルまたはデバイス
"guestfs_upload" を使用します。上の "アップロード方法" 参照。
ファイルまたはデバイスからホストのファイル
"guestfs_download" を使用します。上の "ダウンロード方法" 参照。

UPLOADING AND DOWNLOADING TO PIPES AND FILE DESCRIPTORS

Calls like "guestfs_upload", "guestfs_download", "guestfs_tar_in", "guestfs_tar_out" etc appear to only take filenames as arguments, so it appears you can only upload and download to files. However many Un*x-like hosts let you use the special device files /dev/stdin, /dev/stdout, /dev/stderr and /dev/fd/N to read and write from stdin, stdout, stderr, and arbitrary file descriptor N.

たとえば、virt-cat(1) は次のようにすることにより、出力を標準出力に書き込みます:

 guestfs_download (g, filename, "/dev/stdout");

and you can write tar output to a file descriptor "fd" by doing:

 char devfd[64];
 snprintf (devfd, sizeof devfd, "/dev/fd/%d", fd);
 guestfs_tar_out (g, "/", devfd);

ファイルの一覧表示方法

"guestfs_ll" は人間が読みやすいよう設計されています(おもに guestfish(1) の同等なコマンド "ll" を使用するとき)。

"guestfs_ls" は文字列の平らな一覧のように、ディレクトリーにあるファイルの一覧をプログラムから取得する素早い方法です。

"guestfs_readdir" はディレクトリーにあるファイルの一覧、さらにそれぞれに関する追加の情報を取得するためのプログラム的な方法です。ローカルシステムにおける readdir(3) 呼び出しを使用することとほぼ同様です。

"guestfs_find" と "guestfs_find0" は再帰的にファイルを一覧表示するために使用できます。

コマンドの実行法

libguestfs はおもに仮想マシンの中にあるファイルを操作するための API です。さらに、仮想マシンの中にあるコマンドを実行するために、限定された機能がいくつかあります。

これには多くの制限があります:

  • コマンドを実行するカーネルのバージョンは、期待するものにより異なります。
  • コマンドがデーモンと通信する必要があれば、ほとんど動作しないでしょう。
  • コマンドは制限されたメモリーにおいて実行されます。
  • ネットワークは有効にしなければ利用できません("guestfs_set_network" 参照)。
  • Linux ゲストのみがサポートされます(Windows, BSD など)。
  • Architecture limitations (eg. won’t work for a PPC guest on an X86 host).
  • For SELinux guests, you may need to relabel the guest after creating new files. See "SELINUX" below.
  • Security: It is not safe to run commands from untrusted, possibly malicious guests. These commands may attempt to exploit your program by sending unexpected output. They could also try to exploit the Linux kernel or qemu provided by the libguestfs appliance. They could use the network provided by the libguestfs appliance to bypass ordinary network partitions and firewalls. They could use the elevated privileges or different SELinux context of your program to their advantage.

    A secure alternative is to use libguestfs to install a "firstboot" script (a script which runs when the guest next boots normally), and to have this script run the commands you want in the normal context of the running guest, network security and so on. For information about other security issues, see guestfs-security(1).

The two main API calls to run commands are "guestfs_command" and "guestfs_sh" (there are also variations).

The difference is that "guestfs_sh" runs commands using the shell, so any shell globs, redirections, etc will work.

設定ファイル

To read and write configuration files in Linux guest filesystems, we strongly recommend using Augeas. For example, Augeas understands how to read and write, say, a Linux shadow password file or X.org configuration file, and so avoids you having to write that code.

The main Augeas calls are bound through the "guestfs_aug_*" APIs. We don't document Augeas itself here because there is excellent documentation on the http://augeas.net/ website.

If you don’t want to use Augeas (you fool!) then try calling "guestfs_read_lines" to get the file as a list of lines which you can iterate over.

SYSTEMD JOURNAL FILES

To read the systemd journal from a Linux guest, use the "guestfs_journal_*" APIs starting with "guestfs_journal_open".

Consult the journal documentation here: sd-journal(3), sd_journal_open(3).

SELinux

We support SELinux guests. However it is not possible to load the SELinux policy of the guest into the appliance kernel. Therefore the strategy for dealing with SELinux guests is to relabel them after making changes.

In libguestfs ≥ 1.34 there is a new API, "guestfs_setfiles", which can be used for this. To properly use this API you have to parse the guest SELinux configuration. See the virt-customize(1) module customize/SELinux_relabel.ml for how to do this.

A simpler but slower alternative is to touch /.autorelabel in the guest, which means that the guest will relabel itself at next boot.

Libguestfs ≤ 1.32 had APIs "guestfs_set_selinux", "guestfs_get_selinux", "guestfs_setcon" and "guestfs_getcon". These did not work properly, are deprecated, and should not be used in new code.

umask

Certain calls are affected by the current file mode creation mask (the "umask"). In particular ones which create files or directories, such as "guestfs_touch", "guestfs_mknod" or "guestfs_mkdir". This affects either the default mode that the file is created with or modifies the mode that you supply.

umask の初期値は 022 です、そのためファイルは 0644 のようなモードで作成され、ディレクトリーは 0755 です。

umask による影響を避けるには 2 つの方法があります。1 つは umask を 0 に設定することです(開始後の早いうちに "guestfs_umask (g, 0)" を呼び出します)。もう 1 つは各ファイルまたはディレクトリーを作成した後に "guestfs_chmod" を呼び出すことです。

umask に関する詳細は umask(2) を参照してください。

LABELS AND UUIDS

Many filesystems, devices and logical volumes support either labels (short strings like "BOOT" which might not be unique) and/or UUIDs (globally unique IDs).

For filesystems, use "guestfs_vfs_label" or "guestfs_vfs_uuid" to read the label or UUID. Some filesystems let you call "guestfs_set_label" or "guestfs_set_uuid" to change the label or UUID.

You can locate a filesystem by its label or UUID using "guestfs_findfs_label" or "guestfs_findfs_uuid".

For LVM2 (which supports only UUIDs), there is a rich set of APIs for fetching UUIDs, fetching UUIDs of the contained objects, and changing UUIDs. See: "guestfs_lvuuid", "guestfs_vguuid", "guestfs_pvuuid", "guestfs_vglvuuids", "guestfs_vgpvuuids", "guestfs_vgchange_uuid", "guestfs_vgchange_uuid_all", "guestfs_pvchange_uuid", "guestfs_pvchange_uuid_all".

Note when cloning a filesystem, device or whole guest, it is a good idea to set new randomly generated UUIDs on the copy.

暗号化ディスク

Libguestfs allows you to access Linux guests which have been encrypted using whole disk encryption that conforms to the Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS) standard. This includes nearly all whole disk encryption systems used by modern Linux guests.

LUKS 暗号化ブロックデバイス(それは文字列 "crypto_LUKS" を返します)を識別するには "guestfs_vfs_type" を使用します。

そして "guestfs_luks_open" を呼び出すことにより、これらのデバイスを開きます。明示的にパスフレーズが必要です。

Opening a LUKS device creates a new device mapper device called /dev/mapper/mapname (where "mapname" is the string you supply to "guestfs_luks_open"). Reads and writes to this mapper device are decrypted from and encrypted to the underlying block device respectively.

LVM volume groups on the device can be made visible by calling "guestfs_vgscan" followed by "guestfs_vg_activate_all". The logical volume(s) can now be mounted in the usual way.

Use the reverse process to close a LUKS device. Unmount any logical volumes on it, deactivate the volume groups by calling "guestfs_vg_activate (g, 0, ["/dev/VG"])". Then close the mapper device by calling "guestfs_luks_close" on the /dev/mapper/mapname device (not the underlying encrypted block device).

MOUNT LOCAL

In libguestfs ≥ 1.18, it is possible to mount the libguestfs filesystem on a local directory and access it using ordinary POSIX calls and programs.

Availability of this is subject to a number of restrictions: it requires FUSE (the Filesystem in USErspace), and libfuse must also have been available when libguestfs was compiled. FUSE may require that a kernel module is loaded, and it may be necessary to add the current user to a special "fuse" group. See the documentation for your distribution and http://fuse.sf.net for further information.

The call to mount the libguestfs filesystem on a local directory is "guestfs_mount_local" (q.v.) followed by "guestfs_mount_local_run". The latter does not return until you unmount the filesystem. The reason is that the call enters the FUSE main loop and processes kernel requests, turning them into libguestfs calls. An alternative design would have been to create a background thread to do this, but libguestfs doesn't require pthreads. This way is also more flexible: for example the user can create another thread for "guestfs_mount_local_run".

"guestfs_mount_local" needs a certain amount of time to set up the mountpoint. The mountpoint is not ready to use until the call returns. At this point, accesses to the filesystem will block until the main loop is entered (ie. "guestfs_mount_local_run"). So if you need to start another process to access the filesystem, put the fork between "guestfs_mount_local" and "guestfs_mount_local_run".

MOUNT LOCAL COMPATIBILITY

Since local mounting was only added in libguestfs 1.18, and may not be available even in these builds, you should consider writing code so that it doesn't depend on this feature, and can fall back to using libguestfs file system calls.

If libguestfs was compiled without support for "guestfs_mount_local" then calling it will return an error with errno set to "ENOTSUP" (see "guestfs_last_errno").

MOUNT LOCAL PERFORMANCE

Libguestfs on top of FUSE performs quite poorly. For best performance do not use it. Use ordinary libguestfs filesystem calls, upload, download etc. instead.

HOTPLUGGING

In libguestfs ≥ 1.20, you may add drives and remove after calling "guestfs_launch". There are some restrictions, see below. This is called hotplugging.

Only a subset of the backends support hotplugging (currently only the libvirt backend has support). It also requires that you use libvirt ≥ 0.10.3 and qemu ≥ 1.2.

To hot-add a disk, simply call "guestfs_add_drive_opts" after "guestfs_launch". It is mandatory to specify the "label" parameter so that the newly added disk has a predictable name. For example:

 if (guestfs_launch (g) == -1)
   error ("launch failed");
 
 if (guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename,
                             GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_LABEL, "newdisk",
                             -1) == -1)
   error ("hot-add of disk failed");
 
 if (guestfs_part_disk ("/dev/disk/guestfs/newdisk", "mbr") == -1)
   error ("partitioning of hot-added disk failed");

To hot-remove a disk, call "guestfs_remove_drive". You can call this before or after "guestfs_launch". You can only remove disks that were previously added with a label.

Backends that support hotplugging do not require that you add ≥ 1 disk before calling launch. When hotplugging is supported you don't need to add any disks.

REMOTE STORAGE

CEPH

Libguestfs can access Ceph (librbd/RBD) disks.

To do this, set the optional "protocol" and "server" parameters of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" like this:

 char **servers = { "ceph1.example.org:3000", /* ... */, NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "pool/image",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "rbd",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, servers,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_USERNAME, "rbduser",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SECRET, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA==",
                         -1);

"servers" (the "server" parameter) is a list of one or more Ceph servers. The server string is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts". The "username" and "secret" parameters are also optional, and if not given, then no authentication will be used.

FTP, HTTP AND TFTP

Libguestfs can access remote disks over FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS or TFTP protocols.

To do this, set the optional "protocol" and "server" parameters of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" like this:

 char **servers = { "www.example.org", NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "/disk.img",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "http",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, servers,
                         -1);

The "protocol" can be one of "ftp", "ftps", "http", "https" or "tftp".

"servers" (the "server" parameter) is a list which must have a single element. The single element is a string defining the web, FTP or TFTP server. The format of this string is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts".

GLUSTER

Libguestfs can access Gluster disks.

To do this, set the optional "protocol" and "server" parameters of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" like this:

 char **servers = { "gluster.example.org:24007", NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "volname/image",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "gluster",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, servers,
                         -1);

"servers" (the "server" parameter) is a list which must have a single element. The single element is a string defining the Gluster server. The format of this string is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts".

Note that gluster usually requires the client process (ie. libguestfs) to run as root and will give unfathomable errors if it is not (eg. "No data available").

ISCSI

Libguestfs can access iSCSI disks remotely.

To do this, set the optional "protocol" and "server" parameters like this:

 char **server = { "iscsi.example.org:3000", NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "target-iqn-name/lun",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "iscsi",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, server,
                         -1);

The "server" parameter is a list which must have a single element. The single element is a string defining the iSCSI server. The format of this string is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts".

NETWORK BLOCK DEVICE

Libguestfs can access Network Block Device (NBD) disks remotely.

To do this, set the optional "protocol" and "server" parameters of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" like this:

 char **server = { "nbd.example.org:3000", NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "" /* export name - see below */,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "nbd",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, server,
                         -1);

注:

  • "server" is in fact a list of servers. For NBD you must always supply a list with a single element. (Other remote protocols require zero or more than one server, hence the requirement for this parameter to be a list).
  • The "server" string is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts". To connect to a local qemu-nbd instance over a Unix domain socket, use "unix:/path/to/socket".
  • The "filename" parameter is the NBD export name. Use an empty string to mean the default export. Many NBD servers, including qemu-nbd, do not support export names.
  • If using qemu-nbd as your server, you should always specify the "-t" option. The reason is that libguestfs may open several connections to the server.
  • The libvirt backend requires that you set the "format" parameter of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" accurately when you use writable NBD disks.
  • The libvirt backend has a bug that stops Unix domain socket connections from working: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=922888
  • The direct backend does not support readonly connections because of a bug in qemu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1155677

SHEEPDOG

Libguestfs can access Sheepdog disks.

To do this, set the optional "protocol" and "server" parameters of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" like this:

 char **servers = { /* optional servers ... */ NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "volume",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "sheepdog",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, servers,
                         -1);

The optional list of "servers" may be zero or more server addresses ("hostname:port"). The format of the server strings is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts".

SSH

Libguestfs can access disks over a Secure Shell (SSH) connection.

To do this, set the "protocol" and "server" and (optionally) "username" parameters of "guestfs_add_drive_opts" like this:

 char **server = { "remote.example.com", NULL };
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, "/path/to/disk.img",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_PROTOCOL, "ssh",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_SERVER, server,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_USERNAME, "remoteuser",
                         -1);

The format of the server string is documented in "guestfs_add_drive_opts".

INSPECTION

Libguestfs has APIs for inspecting an unknown disk image to find out if it contains operating systems, an install CD or a live CD.

Add all disks belonging to the unknown virtual machine and call "guestfs_launch" in the usual way.

Then call "guestfs_inspect_os". This function uses other libguestfs calls and certain heuristics, and returns a list of operating systems that were found. An empty list means none were found. A single element is the root filesystem of the operating system. For dual- or multi-boot guests, multiple roots can be returned, each one corresponding to a separate operating system. (Multi-boot virtual machines are extremely rare in the world of virtualization, but since this scenario can happen, we have built libguestfs to deal with it.)

For each root, you can then call various "guestfs_inspect_get_*" functions to get additional details about that operating system. For example, call "guestfs_inspect_get_type" to return the string "windows" or "linux" for Windows and Linux-based operating systems respectively.

Un*x-like and Linux-based operating systems usually consist of several filesystems which are mounted at boot time (for example, a separate boot partition mounted on /boot). The inspection rules are able to detect how filesystems correspond to mount points. Call "guestfs_inspect_get_mountpoints" to get this mapping. It might return a hash table like this example:

 /boot => /dev/sda1
 /     => /dev/vg_guest/lv_root
 /usr  => /dev/vg_guest/lv_usr

The caller can then make calls to "guestfs_mount" to mount the filesystems as suggested.

Be careful to mount filesystems in the right order (eg. / before /usr). Sorting the keys of the hash by length, shortest first, should work.

Inspection currently only works for some common operating systems. Contributors are welcome to send patches for other operating systems that we currently cannot detect.

暗号化ディスクは検査の前に開く必要があります。詳細は"暗号化ディスク"を参照してください。"guestfs_inspect_os" 関数はすべての暗号化デバイスを単に無視します。

A note on the implementation: The call "guestfs_inspect_os" performs inspection and caches the results in the guest handle. Subsequent calls to "guestfs_inspect_get_*" return this cached information, but do not re-read the disks. If you change the content of the guest disks, you can redo inspection by calling "guestfs_inspect_os" again. ("guestfs_inspect_list_applications2" works a little differently from the other calls and does read the disks. See documentation for that function for details).

インストールディスクの検査方法

libguestfs (1.9.4以降) は、いくつかのインストールディスク、インストール CD、live CD などを検知できます。

Further information is available about the operating system that can be installed using the regular inspection APIs like "guestfs_inspect_get_product_name", "guestfs_inspect_get_major_version" etc.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR WINDOWS GUESTS

libguestfs は NTFS パーティションをマウントできます。そのためには http://www.ntfs-3g.org/ ドライバーを使用します。

ドライブレターとパス

DOS and Windows still use drive letters, and the filesystems are always treated as case insensitive by Windows itself, and therefore you might find a Windows configuration file referring to a path like "c:\windows\system32". When the filesystem is mounted in libguestfs, that directory might be referred to as /WINDOWS/System32.

Drive letter mappings can be found using inspection (see "INSPECTION" and "guestfs_inspect_get_drive_mappings")

Dealing with separator characters (backslash vs forward slash) is outside the scope of libguestfs, but usually a simple character replacement will work.

To resolve the case insensitivity of paths, call "guestfs_case_sensitive_path".

LONG FILENAMES ON NTFS

NTFS supports filenames up to 255 characters long. "Character" means a 2 byte UTF-16 codepoint which can encode the most common Unicode codepoints.

Most Linux filesystems support filenames up to 255 bytes. This means you may get an error:

 File name too long

when you copy a file from NTFS to a Linux filesystem if the name, when reencoded as UTF-8, would exceed 255 bytes in length.

This will most often happen when using non-ASCII names that are longer than ~127 characters (eg. Greek, Cyrillic) or longer than ~85 characters (Asian languages).

A workaround is not to try to store such long filenames on Linux native filesystems. Since the tar(1) format can store unlimited length filenames, keep the files in a tarball.

Windows レジストリのアクセス方法

Libguestfs also provides some help for decoding Windows Registry "hive" files, through a separate C library called hivex(3).

Before libguestfs 1.19.35 you had to download the hive file, operate on it locally using hivex, and upload it again. Since this version, we have included the major hivex APIs directly in the libguestfs API (see "guestfs_hivex_open"). This means that if you have opened a Windows guest, you can read and write the registry directly.

NTFS-3G ファイルシステムにおけるシンボリックリンク

Ntfs-3g tries to rewrite "Junction Points" and NTFS "symbolic links" to provide something which looks like a Linux symlink. The way it tries to do the rewriting is described here:

http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/junction-points-and-symbolic-links/

The essential problem is that ntfs-3g simply does not have enough information to do a correct job. NTFS links can contain drive letters and references to external device GUIDs that ntfs-3g has no way of resolving. It is almost certainly the case that libguestfs callers should ignore what ntfs-3g does (ie. don't use "guestfs_readlink" on NTFS volumes).

Instead if you encounter a symbolic link on an ntfs-3g filesystem, use "guestfs_lgetxattr" to read the "system.ntfs_reparse_data" extended attribute, and read the raw reparse data from that (you can find the format documented in various places around the web).

EXTENDED ATTRIBUTES ON NTFS-3G FILESYSTEMS

There are other useful extended attributes that can be read from ntfs-3g filesystems (using "guestfs_getxattr"). See:

http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/extended-attributes/

WINDOWS HIBERNATION AND WINDOWS 8 FAST STARTUP

Windows guests which have been hibernated (instead of fully shut down) cannot be mounted. This is a limitation of ntfs-3g. You will see an error like this:

 The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
 Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
 Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Operation not permitted
 The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume
 and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation or fast
 restarting), or mount the volume read-only with the
 'ro' mount option.

Windows 8 では、シャットダウンボタンを押しても仮想マシンがシャットダウンしません。代わりに、仮想マシンが休止状態になります。これは "高速スタートアップ" として知られています。

いくつかの推奨される回避策があります:

  • 読み込み専用でマウントします (例: "guestfs_mount_ro")。
  • On Windows 8, turn off fast startup. It is in the Control Panel → Power Options → Choose what the power buttons do → Change settings that are currently unavailable → Turn on fast startup.
  • On Windows 7 and earlier, shut the guest off properly instead of hibernating it.

RESIZE2FS ERRORS

The "guestfs_resize2fs", "guestfs_resize2fs_size" and "guestfs_resize2fs_M" calls are used to resize ext2/3/4 filesystems.

The underlying program (resize2fs(8)) requires that the filesystem is clean and recently fsck'd before you can resize it. Also, if the resize operation fails for some reason, then you had to call fsck the filesystem again to fix it.

In libguestfs "lt" 1.17.14, you usually had to call "guestfs_e2fsck_f" before the resize. However, in "ge" 1.17.14, e2fsck(8) is called automatically before the resize, so you no longer need to do this.

The resize2fs(8) program can still fail, in which case it prints an error message similar to:

 容量変更の操作を中断した後、ファイルシステムを
 修復するために 'e2fsck -fy <device>' を実行してください。

You can do this by calling "guestfs_e2fsck" with the "forceall" option. However in the context of disk images, it is usually better to avoid this situation, eg. by rolling back to an earlier snapshot, or by copying and resizing and on failure going back to the original.

USING LIBGUESTFS WITH OTHER PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES

Although we don’t want to discourage you from using the C API, we will mention here that the same API is also available in other languages.

The API is broadly identical in all supported languages. This means that the C call "guestfs_add_drive_ro(g,file)" is "$g->add_drive_ro($file)" in Perl, "g.add_drive_ro(file)" in Python, and "g#add_drive_ro file" in OCaml. In other words, a straightforward, predictable isomorphism between each language.

Error messages are automatically transformed into exceptions if the language supports it.

We don’t try to "object orientify" parts of the API in OO languages, although contributors are welcome to write higher level APIs above what we provide in their favourite languages if they wish.

  • Events are not bound.
  • Functions with the following return types are not bound:
  • Any function returning a struct.
  • Any function returning a list of structs.
  • A few functions that return fixed length buffers (specifically ones declared "RBufferOut" in the generator).
  • A tiny number of obscure functions that return constant strings (specifically ones declared "RConstOptString" in the generator).

LIBGUESTFS GOTCHAS

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotcha_(programming): "A feature of a system [...] that works in the way it is documented but is counterintuitive and almost invites mistakes."

Since we developed libguestfs and the associated tools, there are several things we would have designed differently, but are now stuck with for backwards compatibility or other reasons. If there is ever a libguestfs 2.0 release, you can expect these to change. Beware of them.

初期値は読み込み専用です。
guestfish(3) では、 --ro が初期値です。イメージを変更したいならば --rw を指定する必要があります。

これにより、動作中の仮想マシンのイメージを破壊する可能性を減らします。

Note that many filesystems change the disk when you just mount and unmount, even if you didn't perform any writes. You need to use "guestfs_add_drive_ro" to guarantee that the disk is not changed.

guestfish disk.img doesn't do what people expect (open disk.img for examination). It tries to run a guestfish command disk.img which doesn't exist, so it fails. In earlier versions of guestfish the error message was also unintuitive, but we have corrected this since. Like the Bourne shell, we should have used "guestfish -c command" to run commands.
In recent guestfish you can use "1M" to mean 1 megabyte (and similarly for other modifiers). What guestfish actually does is to multiply the number part by the modifier part and pass the result to the C API. However this doesn't work for a few APIs which aren't expecting bytes, but are already expecting some other unit (eg. megabytes).

最も一般的な "guestfs_lvcreate" です。 guestfish コマンド:

 lvcreate LV VG 100M
    

does not do what you might expect. Instead because "guestfs_lvcreate" is already expecting megabytes, this tries to create a 100 terabyte (100 megabytes * megabytes) logical volume. The error message you get from this is also a little obscure.

This could be fixed in the generator by specially marking parameters and return values which take bytes or other units.

There is a subtle ambiguity in the API between a device name (eg. /dev/sdb2) and a similar pathname. A file might just happen to be called "sdb2" in the directory /dev (consider some non-Unix VM image).

In the current API we usually resolve this ambiguity by having two separate calls, for example "guestfs_checksum" and "guestfs_checksum_device". Some API calls are ambiguous and (incorrectly) resolve the problem by detecting if the path supplied begins with /dev/.

To avoid both the ambiguity and the need to duplicate some calls, we could make paths/devices into structured names. One way to do this would be to use a notation like grub ("hd(0,0)"), although nobody really likes this aspect of grub. Another way would be to use a structured type, equivalent to this OCaml type:

 type path = Path of string | Device of int | Partition of int * int
    

which would allow you to pass arguments like:

 Path "/foo/bar"
 Device 1            (* /dev/sdb, または場合によると /dev/sda *)
 Partition (1, 2)    (* /dev/sdb2 (または /dev/sda2 や /dev/sdb3?) *)
 Path "/dev/sdb2"    (* デバイスではありません *)
    

As you can see there are still problems to resolve even with this representation. Also consider how it might work in guestfish.

キーとパスフレーズ

特定の libguestfs 呼び出しは、C 文字列のように渡される、秘密を扱うキーの材料を含むパラメーターをとります。

In the future we would hope to change the libguestfs implementation so that keys are mlock(2)-ed into physical RAM, and thus can never end up in swap. However this is not done at the moment, because of the complexity of such an implementation.

Therefore you should be aware that any key parameter you pass to libguestfs might end up being written out to the swap partition. If this is a concern, scrub the swap partition or don't use libguestfs on encrypted devices.

MULTIPLE HANDLES AND MULTIPLE THREADS

All high-level libguestfs actions are synchronous. If you want to use libguestfs asynchronously then you must create a thread.

Threads in libguestfs ≥ 1.38

In libguestfs ≥ 1.38, each handle ("guestfs_h") contains a lock which is acquired automatically when you call a libguestfs function. The practical effect of this is you can call libguestfs functions with the same handle from multiple threads without needing to do any locking.

Also in libguestfs ≥ 1.38, the last error on the handle ("guestfs_last_error", "guestfs_last_errno") is stored in thread-local storage, so it is safe to write code like:

 if (guestfs_add_drive_ro (g, drive) == -1)
   fprintf (stderr, "error was: %s\n", guestfs_last_error (g));

even when other threads may be concurrently using the same handle "g".

Threads in libguestfs < 1.38

In libguestfs < 1.38, you must use the handle only from a single thread. Either use the handle exclusively from one thread, or provide your own mutex so that two threads cannot issue calls on the same handle at the same time. Even apparently innocent functions like "guestfs_get_trace" are not safe to be called from multiple threads without a mutex in libguestfs < 1.38.

Use "guestfs_set_identifier" to make it simpler to identify threads in trace output.

パス

Libguestfs needs a supermin appliance, which it finds by looking along an internal path.

By default it looks for these in the directory "$libdir/guestfs" (eg. /usr/local/lib/guestfs or /usr/lib64/guestfs).

Use "guestfs_set_path" or set the environment variable "LIBGUESTFS_PATH" to change the directories that libguestfs will search in. The value is a colon-separated list of paths. The current directory is not searched unless the path contains an empty element or ".". For example "LIBGUESTFS_PATH=:/usr/lib/guestfs" would search the current directory and then /usr/lib/guestfs.

QEMU ラッパー

自身の QEMU をコンパイルしたい、非標準の場所から QEMU を実行したい、または追加の引数を QEMU に渡したいならば、QEMU のシェルスクリプト・ラッパーを書けます。

There is one important rule to remember: you must "exec qemu" as the last command in the shell script (so that qemu replaces the shell and becomes the direct child of the libguestfs-using program). If you don't do this, then the qemu process won't be cleaned up correctly.

Here is an example of a wrapper, where I have built my own copy of qemu from source:

 #!/bin/sh -
 qemudir=/home/rjones/d/qemu
 exec $qemudir/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -L $qemudir/pc-bios "$@"

Save this script as /tmp/qemu.wrapper (or wherever), "chmod +x", and then use it by setting the LIBGUESTFS_HV environment variable. For example:

 LIBGUESTFS_HV=/tmp/qemu.wrapper guestfish

Note that libguestfs also calls qemu with the -help and -version options in order to determine features.

Wrappers can also be used to edit the options passed to qemu. In the following example, the "-machine ..." option ("-machine" and the following argument) are removed from the command line and replaced with "-machine pc,accel=tcg". The while loop iterates over the options until it finds the right one to remove, putting the remaining options into the "args" array.

 #!/bin/bash -
 
 i=0
 while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
     case "$1" in
     -machine)
         shift 2;;
     *)
         args[i]="$1"
         (( i++ ))
         shift ;;
     esac
 done
 
 exec qemu-kvm -machine pc,accel=tcg "${args[@]}"

BACKEND

The backend (previously known as the "attach method") controls how libguestfs creates and/or connects to the backend daemon, eg. by starting qemu directly, or using libvirt to manage an appliance, running User-Mode Linux, or connecting to an already running daemon.

You can set the backend by calling "guestfs_set_backend", or by setting the environment variable "LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND".

Possible backends are described below:

"direct"
"appliance"
Run qemu directly to launch an appliance.

"direct" and "appliance" are synonyms.

This is the ordinary method and normally the default, but see the note below.

"libvirt"
"libvirt:null"
"libvirt:URI"
Use libvirt to launch and manage the appliance.

"libvirt" causes libguestfs to choose a suitable URI for creating session guests. If using the libvirt backend, you almost always should use this.

"libvirt:null" causes libguestfs to use the "NULL" connection URI, which causes libvirt to try to guess what the user meant. You probably don't want to use this.

"libvirt:URI" uses URI as the libvirt connection URI (see http://libvirt.org/uri.html). The typical libvirt backend with a URI would be "libvirt:qemu:///session"

The libvirt backend supports more features, including hotplugging (see "HOTPLUGGING") and sVirt.

"uml"
Run the User-Mode Linux kernel. The location of the kernel is set using $LIBGUESTFS_HV or using the "guestfs_set_qemu" API (note that qemu is not involved, we just reuse the same variable in the handle for convenience).

User-Mode Linux can be much faster, simpler and more lightweight than using a full-blown virtual machine, but it also has some shortcomings. See "USER-MODE LINUX BACKEND" below.

"unix:path"
Unix ドメイン・ソケット path に接続します。

This method lets you connect to an existing daemon or (using virtio-serial) to a live guest. For more information, see "ATTACHING TO RUNNING DAEMONS".

"direct" is usually the default backend. However since libguestfs ≥ 1.19.24, libguestfs can be built with a different default by doing:

 ./configure --with-default-backend=...

To find out if libguestfs was compiled with a different default backend, do:

 unset LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND
 guestfish get-backend

BACKEND SETTINGS

Each backend can be configured by passing a list of strings. You can either call "guestfs_set_backend_settings" with a list of strings, or set the "LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND_SETTINGS" environment variable to a colon-separated list of strings (before creating the handle).

force_tcg

Using:

 export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND_SETTINGS=force_tcg

will force the direct and libvirt backends to use TCG (software emulation) instead of KVM (hardware accelerated virtualization).

gdb

The direct backend supports:

 export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND_SETTINGS=gdb

When this is set, qemu will not start running the appliance immediately. It will wait for you to connect to it using gdb:

 $ gdb
 (gdb) symbol-file /path/to/vmlinux
 (gdb) target remote tcp::1234
 (gdb) cont

You can then debug the appliance kernel, which is useful to debug boot failures (especially ones where there are no debug messages printed - tip: look in the kernel "log_buf").

On Fedora, install "kernel-debuginfo" for the "vmlinux" file (containing symbols). Make sure the symbols precisely match the kernel being used.

ATTACHING TO RUNNING DAEMONS

Note (1): This is highly experimental and has a tendency to eat babies. Use with caution.

Note (2): This section explains how to attach to a running daemon from a low level perspective. For most users, simply using virt tools such as guestfish(1) with the --live option will "just work".

Using guestfs_set_backend

By calling "guestfs_set_backend" you can change how the library connects to the "guestfsd" daemon in "guestfs_launch" (read "ARCHITECTURE" in guestfs-internals(1) for some background).

The normal backend is "direct", where a small appliance is created containing the daemon, and then the library connects to this. "libvirt" or "libvirt:URI" are alternatives that use libvirt to start the appliance.

Setting the backend to "unix:path" (where path is the path of a Unix domain socket) causes "guestfs_launch" to connect to an existing daemon over the Unix domain socket.

The normal use for this is to connect to a running virtual machine that contains a "guestfsd" daemon, and send commands so you can read and write files inside the live virtual machine.

live フラグを用いた guestfs_add_domain の使用方法

"guestfs_add_domain" provides some help for getting the correct backend. If you pass the "live" option to this function, then (if the virtual machine is running) it will examine the libvirt XML looking for a virtio-serial channel to connect to:

 <domain>
   ...
   <devices>
     ...
     <channel type='unix'>
       <source mode='bind' path='/path/to/socket'/>
       <target type='virtio' name='org.libguestfs.channel.0'/>
     </channel>
     ...
   </devices>
 </domain>

"guestfs_add_domain" extracts /path/to/socket and sets the backend to "unix:/path/to/socket".

Some of the libguestfs tools (including guestfish) support a --live option which is passed through to "guestfs_add_domain" thus allowing you to attach to and modify live virtual machines.

The virtual machine needs to have been set up beforehand so that it has the virtio-serial channel and so that guestfsd is running inside it.

USER-MODE LINUX BACKEND

Setting the following environment variables (or the equivalent in the API) selects the User-Mode Linux backend:

 export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=uml
 export LIBGUESTFS_HV=/path/to/vmlinux

"vmlinux" (or it may be called "linux") is the Linux binary, compiled to run as a userspace process. Note that we reuse the qemu variable in the handle for convenience; qemu is not involved.

User-Mode Linux can be faster and more lightweight than running a full-blown virtual machine as the backend (especially if you are already running libguestfs in a virtual machine or cloud instance), but it also has some shortcomings compared to the usual qemu/KVM-based backend.

BUILDING USER-MODE LINUX FROM SOURCE

Your Linux distro may provide UML in which case you can ignore this section.

These instructions are adapted from: http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/source.html

1. Check out Linux sources
Clone the Linux git repository or download the Linux source tarball.
2. Configure the kernel
Note: All ‘make’ commands must have "ARCH=um" added.

 make menuconfig ARCH=um
    

Make sure any filesystem drivers that you need are compiled into the kernel.

Currently, it needs a large amount of extra work to get modules working. It’s recommended that you disable module support in the kernel configuration, which will cause everything to be compiled into the image.

3. Build the kernel
 make ARCH=um
    

This will leave a file called "linux" or "vmlinux" in the top-level directory. This is the UML kernel. You should set "LIBGUESTFS_HV" to point to this file.

USER-MODE LINUX DIFFERENCES FROM KVM

Only plain raw-format images will work. No qcow2, no backing files.
No NBD, etc.
In particular, support for UML in libguestfs depends on support for UML in the upstream kernel. If UML was ever removed from the upstream Linux kernel, then we might remove it from libguestfs too.

ABI 保証

We guarantee the libguestfs ABI (binary interface), for public, high-level actions as outlined in this section. Although we will deprecate some actions, for example if they get replaced by newer calls, we will keep the old actions forever. This allows you the developer to program in confidence against the libguestfs API.

ブロックデバイスの命名法

Libguestfs defines /dev/sd* as the standard naming scheme for devices passed to API calls. So /dev/sda means "the first device added by "guestfs_add_drive_opts"", and /dev/sdb3 means "the third partition on the second device".

Internally device names are sometimes translated, but this should not be visible at the API level.

ディスクラベル

In libguestfs ≥ 1.20, you can give a label to a disk when you add it, using the optional "label" parameter to "guestfs_add_drive_opts". (Note that disk labels are different from and not related to filesystem labels).

Not all versions of libguestfs support setting a disk label, and when it is supported, it is limited to 20 ASCII characters "[a-zA-Z]".

When you add a disk with a label, it can either be addressed using /dev/sd*, or using /dev/disk/guestfs/label. Partitions on the disk can be addressed using /dev/disk/guestfs/labelpartnum.

Listing devices ("guestfs_list_devices") and partitions ("guestfs_list_partitions") returns the block device names. However you can use "guestfs_list_disk_labels" to map disk labels to block device and partition names.

NULL DISKS

When adding a disk using, eg., "guestfs_add_drive", you can set the filename to "/dev/null". This string is treated specially by libguestfs, causing it to add a "null disk".

A null disk has the following properties:

  • A null disk will appear as a normal device, eg. in calls to "guestfs_list_devices".
  • You may add "/dev/null" multiple times.
  • You should not try to access a null disk in any way. For example, you shouldn't try to read it or mount it.

Null disks are used for three main purposes:

1.
Performance testing of libguestfs (see guestfs-performance(1)).
2.
The internal test suite.
3.
If you want to use libguestfs APIs that don’t refer to disks, since libguestfs requires that at least one disk is added, you should add a null disk.

たとえば、機能が利用可能であるかを確認するために、このようなコードを使用します:

 guestfs_h *g;
 char **groups = [ "btrfs", NULL ];
 
 g = guestfs_create ();
 guestfs_add_drive (g, "/dev/null");
 guestfs_launch (g);
 if (guestfs_available (g, groups) == 0) {
   // group(s) are available
 } else {
   // group(s) are not available
 }
 guestfs_close (g);
    

DISK IMAGE FORMATS

Virtual disks come in a variety of formats. Some common formats are listed below.

Note that libguestfs itself is not responsible for handling the disk format: this is done using qemu(1). If support for a particular format is missing or broken, this has to be fixed in qemu.

COMMON VIRTUAL DISK IMAGE FORMATS

Raw format is simply a dump of the sequential bytes of the virtual hard disk. There is no header, container, compression or processing of any sort.

Since raw format requires no translation to read or write, it is both fast and very well supported by qemu and all other hypervisors. You can consider it to be a universal format that any hypervisor can access.

Raw format files are not compressed and so take up the full space of the original disk image even when they are empty. A variation (on Linux/Unix at least) is to not store ranges of all-zero bytes by storing the file as a sparse file. This "variant format" is sometimes called raw sparse. Many utilities, including virt-sparsify(1), can make raw disk images sparse.

Qcow2 is the native disk image format used by qemu. Internally it uses a two-level directory structure so that only blocks containing data are stored in the file. It also has many other features such as compression, snapshots and backing files.

There are at least two distinct variants of this format, although qemu (and hence libguestfs) handles both transparently to the user.

VMDK is VMware’s native disk image format. There are many variations. Modern qemu (hence libguestfs) supports most variations, but you should be aware that older versions of qemu had some very bad data-corrupting bugs in this area.

Note that VMware ESX exposes files with the name guest-flat.vmdk. These are not VMDK. They are raw format files which happen to have a ".vmdk" extension.

VDI is VirtualBox’s native disk image format. Qemu (hence libguestfs) has generally good support for this.
VPC (旧) と VHD (新) は Microsoft (および、以前の Connectix) Virtual PC および Hyper-V のネイティブなディスクイメージ形式です。
推奨されない形式
The following formats are obsolete and should not be used: qcow (aka qcow1), cow, bochs.

DETECTING THE FORMAT OF A DISK IMAGE

Firstly note there is a security issue with auto-detecting the format of a disk image. It may or may not apply in your use case. Read "CVE-2010-3851" below.

Libguestfs offers an API to get the format of a disk image ("guestfs_disk_format"), and it is safest to use this.

Don’t be tempted to try parsing the text / human-readable output of "qemu-img" since it cannot be parsed reliably and securely. Also do not use the "file" command since the output of that changes over time.

CONNECTION MANAGEMENT

guestfs_h *

"guestfs_h" is the opaque type representing a connection handle. Create a handle by calling "guestfs_create" or "guestfs_create_flags". Call "guestfs_close" to free the handle and release all resources used.

For information on using multiple handles and threads, see the section "MULTIPLE HANDLES AND MULTIPLE THREADS" above.

guestfs_create

 guestfs_h *guestfs_create (void);

接続ハンドルを作成します。

On success this returns a non-NULL pointer to a handle. On error it returns NULL.

You have to "configure" the handle after creating it. This includes calling "guestfs_add_drive_opts" (or one of the equivalent calls) on the handle at least once.

ハンドルを設定後、 "guestfs_launch" を呼び出す必要があります。

You may also want to configure error handling for the handle. See the "ERROR HANDLING" section below.

guestfs_create_flags

 guestfs_h *guestfs_create_flags (unsigned flags [, ...]);

Create a connection handle, supplying extra flags and extra arguments to control how the handle is created.

On success this returns a non-NULL pointer to a handle. On error it returns NULL.

"guestfs_create" is equivalent to calling guestfs_create_flags(0).

The following flags may be logically ORed together. (Currently no extra arguments are used).

"GUESTFS_CREATE_NO_ENVIRONMENT"
Don’t parse any environment variables (such as "LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG" etc).

You can call "guestfs_parse_environment" or "guestfs_parse_environment_list" afterwards to parse environment variables. Alternately, don't call these functions if you want the handle to be unaffected by environment variables. See the example below.

The default (if this flag is not given) is to implicitly call "guestfs_parse_environment".

"GUESTFS_CREATE_NO_CLOSE_ON_EXIT"
Don’t try to close the handle in an atexit(3) handler if the program exits without explicitly closing the handle.

The default (if this flag is not given) is to install such an atexit handler.

"GUESTFS_CREATE_NO_ENVIRONMENT" の使用法

You might use "GUESTFS_CREATE_NO_ENVIRONMENT" and an explicit call to "guestfs_parse_environment" like this:

 guestfs_h *g;
 int r;
 
 g = guestfs_create_flags (GUESTFS_CREATE_NO_ENVIRONMENT);
 if (!g) {
   perror ("guestfs_create_flags");
   exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
 }
 r = guestfs_parse_environment (g);
 if (r == -1)
   exit (EXIT_FAILURE);

Or to create a handle which is unaffected by environment variables, omit the call to "guestfs_parse_environment" from the above code.

The above code has another advantage which is that any errors from parsing the environment are passed through the error handler, whereas "guestfs_create" prints errors on stderr and ignores them.

guestfs_close

 void guestfs_close (guestfs_h *g);

This closes the connection handle and frees up all resources used. If a close callback was set on the handle, then it is called.

ハンドルを閉じる正しい方法は次のとおりです:

 if (guestfs_shutdown (g) == -1) {
   /* ここで書き込みエラーを処理する */
 }
 guestfs_close (g);

"guestfs_shutdown" は以下の すべて が成り立つ場合のみ必要です:

1.
一つ以上のディスクを読み書きモードで追加した、かつ
2.
guestfs_launch が呼び出された、かつ
3.
何か変更を実施した、かつ
4.
you have a way to handle write errors (eg. by exiting with an error code or reporting something to the user).

エラー処理

API 関数はエラーを返します。たとえば、ほとんどすべての "int" を返す関数はエラーを意味するために "-1" を返します。

エラーに関する追加の情報が利用可能です: 失敗したものがシステムコールならば、エラーメッセージ文字列およびオプションのエラー番号(errno)です。

You can get at the additional information about the last error on the handle by calling "guestfs_last_error", "guestfs_last_errno", and/or by setting up an error handler with "guestfs_set_error_handler".

When the handle is created, a default error handler is installed which prints the error message string to "stderr". For small short-running command line programs it is sufficient to do:

 if (guestfs_launch (g) == -1)
   exit (EXIT_FAILURE);

since the default error handler will ensure that an error message has been printed to "stderr" before the program exits.

For other programs the caller will almost certainly want to install an alternate error handler or do error handling in-line as in the example below. The non-C language bindings all install NULL error handlers and turn errors into exceptions using code similar to this:

 const char *msg;
 int errnum;
 
 /* これは標準エラーにエラーを表示するときの
    デフォルトの動作を無効化します。 */
 guestfs_set_error_handler (g, NULL, NULL);
 
 if (guestfs_launch (g) == -1) {
   /* エラーメッセージを検査する、表示する、例外を投げるなど */
   msg = guestfs_last_error (g);
   errnum = guestfs_last_errno (g);
 
   fprintf (stderr, "%s", msg);
   if (errnum != 0)
     fprintf (stderr, ": %s", strerror (errnum));
   fprintf (stderr, "\n");
 
   /* ... */
 }

"guestfs_create" returns "NULL" if the handle cannot be created, and because there is no handle if this happens there is no way to get additional error information. Since libguestfs ≥ 1.20, you can use "guestfs_create_flags" to properly deal with errors during handle creation, although the vast majority of programs can continue to use "guestfs_create" and not worry about this situation.

Out of memory errors are handled differently. The default action is to call abort(3). If this is undesirable, then you can set a handler using "guestfs_set_out_of_memory_handler".

guestfs_last_error

 const char *guestfs_last_error (guestfs_h *g);

This returns the last error message that happened on "g". If there has not been an error since the handle was created, then this returns "NULL".

Note the returned string does not have a newline character at the end. Most error messages are single lines. Some are split over multiple lines and contain "\n" characters within the string but not at the end.

The lifetime of the returned string is until the next error occurs on the same handle, or "guestfs_close" is called. If you need to keep it longer, copy it.

guestfs_last_errno

 int guestfs_last_errno (guestfs_h *g);

これは "g" において発生した最後のエラー番号(errno)を返します。

もし成功すると、0 以外のエラー番号の整数が返されます。

In many cases the special errno "ENOTSUP" is returned if you tried to call a function or use a feature which is not supported.

If no error number is available, this returns 0. This call can return 0 in three situations:

1.
ハンドルにおいて何もエラーがありませんでした。
2.
エラーがありましたが、エラー番号に意味がありませんでした。エラーがシステムコールの失敗により発生しましたが、何か他の理由による場合に対応します。
3.
エラーがシステムコールの失敗により発生しましたが、エラー番号が何らかの理由により捕捉されず返されました。これは通常 libguestfs のバグを意味します。

Libguestfs tries to convert the errno from inside the appliance into a corresponding errno for the caller (not entirely trivial: the appliance might be running a completely different operating system from the library and error numbers are not standardized across Un*xen). If this could not be done, then the error is translated to "EINVAL". In practice this should only happen in very rare circumstances.

guestfs_set_error_handler

 typedef void (*guestfs_error_handler_cb) (guestfs_h *g,
                                           void *opaque,
                                           const char *msg);
 void guestfs_set_error_handler (guestfs_h *g,
                                 guestfs_error_handler_cb cb,
                                 void *opaque);

The callback "cb" will be called if there is an error. The parameters passed to the callback are an opaque data pointer and the error message string.

"errno" is not passed to the callback. To get that the callback must call "guestfs_last_errno".

Note that the message string "msg" is freed as soon as the callback function returns, so if you want to stash it somewhere you must make your own copy.

標準のハンドラーは "stderr" にメッセージを表示します。

"cb""NULL" に設定すると、 no ハンドラーが呼び出されます。

guestfs_get_error_handler

 guestfs_error_handler_cb guestfs_get_error_handler (guestfs_h *g,
                                                     void **opaque_rtn);

現在のエラーハンドラのコールバックを返します。

guestfs_push_error_handler

 void guestfs_push_error_handler (guestfs_h *g,
                                  guestfs_error_handler_cb cb,
                                  void *opaque);

This is the same as "guestfs_set_error_handler", except that the old error handler is stashed away in a stack inside the handle. You can restore the previous error handler by calling "guestfs_pop_error_handler".

Use the following code to temporarily disable errors around a function:

 guestfs_push_error_handler (g, NULL, NULL);
 guestfs_mkdir (g, "/foo"); /* We don't care if this fails. */
 guestfs_pop_error_handler (g);

guestfs_pop_error_handler

 void guestfs_pop_error_handler (guestfs_h *g);

Restore the previous error handler (see "guestfs_push_error_handler").

If you pop the stack too many times, then the default error handler is restored.

guestfs_set_out_of_memory_handler

 typedef void (*guestfs_abort_cb) (void);
 void guestfs_set_out_of_memory_handler (guestfs_h *g,
                                         guestfs_abort_cb);

メモリー不足になると、コールバック "cb" が呼び出されます。 このコールバックは戻ってこない可能性があることに注意してください

デフォルトでは abort(3) を呼び出します。

You cannot set "cb" to "NULL". You can’t ignore out of memory situations.

guestfs_get_out_of_memory_handler

 guestfs_abort_fn guestfs_get_out_of_memory_handler (guestfs_h *g);

アウトオブメモリーハンドラーを返します。

guestfs_acl_delete_def_file

 int
 guestfs_acl_delete_def_file (guestfs_h *g,
                              const char *dir);

この関数はディレクトリー "dir" に設定されている標準の POSIX アクセス制御リスト (ACL: Access Control List) を削除します。

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

This function depends on the feature "acl". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

(Added in 1.19.63)

guestfs_acl_get_file

 char *
 guestfs_acl_get_file (guestfs_h *g,
                       const char *path,
                       const char *acltype);

This function returns the POSIX Access Control List (ACL) attached to "path". The ACL is returned in "long text form" (see acl(5)).

The "acltype" parameter may be:

"access"
Return the ordinary (access) ACL for any file, directory or other filesystem object.
"default"
Return the default ACL. Normally this only makes sense if "path" is a directory.

この関数は文字列を返します。エラー時は NULL です。 呼び出し元は使用後に返された文字列を開放する必要があります

This function depends on the feature "acl". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

(Added in 1.19.63)

guestfs_acl_set_file

 int
 guestfs_acl_set_file (guestfs_h *g,
                       const char *path,
                       const char *acltype,
                       const char *acl);

This function sets the POSIX Access Control List (ACL) attached to "path".

The "acltype" parameter may be:

"access"
Set the ordinary (access) ACL for any file, directory or other filesystem object.
"default"
Set the default ACL. Normally this only makes sense if "path" is a directory.

The "acl" parameter is the new ACL in either "long text form" or "short text form" (see acl(5)). The new ACL completely replaces any previous ACL on the file. The ACL must contain the full Unix permissions (eg. "u::rwx,g::rx,o::rx").

If you are specifying individual users or groups, then the mask field is also required (eg. "m::rwx"), followed by the "u:ID:..." and/or "g:ID:..." field(s). A full ACL string might therefore look like this:

 u::rwx,g::rwx,o::rwx,m::rwx,u:500:rwx,g:500:rwx
 \ Unix permissions / \mask/ \      ACL        /

You should use numeric UIDs and GIDs. To map usernames and groupnames to the correct numeric ID in the context of the guest, use the Augeas functions (see "guestfs_aug_init").

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

This function depends on the feature "acl". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

guestfs_add_cdrom

 int
 guestfs_add_cdrom (guestfs_h *g,
                    const char *filename);

This function is deprecated. In new code, use the "guestfs_add_drive_ro" call instead.

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

この関数は仮想 CD-ROM ディスクイメージを仮想マシンに追加します。

The image is added as read-only drive, so this function is equivalent of "guestfs_add_drive_ro".

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

guestfs_add_domain

 int
 guestfs_add_domain (guestfs_h *g,
                     const char *dom,
                     ...);

You may supply a list of optional arguments to this call. Use zero or more of the following pairs of parameters, and terminate the list with "-1" on its own. See "CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS".

 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_LIBVIRTURI, const char *libvirturi,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_READONLY, int readonly,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_IFACE, const char *iface,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_LIVE, int live,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_ALLOWUUID, int allowuuid,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_READONLYDISK, const char *readonlydisk,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_CACHEMODE, const char *cachemode,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_DISCARD, const char *discard,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_COPYONREAD, int copyonread,

This function adds the disk(s) attached to the named libvirt domain "dom". It works by connecting to libvirt, requesting the domain and domain XML from libvirt, parsing it for disks, and calling "guestfs_add_drive_opts" on each one.

The number of disks added is returned. This operation is atomic: if an error is returned, then no disks are added.

This function does some minimal checks to make sure the libvirt domain is not running (unless "readonly" is true). In a future version we will try to acquire the libvirt lock on each disk.

Disks must be accessible locally. This often means that adding disks from a remote libvirt connection (see http://libvirt.org/remote.html) will fail unless those disks are accessible via the same device path locally too.

The optional "libvirturi" parameter sets the libvirt URI (see http://libvirt.org/uri.html). If this is not set then we connect to the default libvirt URI (or one set through an environment variable, see the libvirt documentation for full details).

The optional "live" flag controls whether this call will try to connect to a running virtual machine "guestfsd" process if it sees a suitable <channel> element in the libvirt XML definition. The default (if the flag is omitted) is never to try. See "ATTACHING TO RUNNING DAEMONS" for more information.

If the "allowuuid" flag is true (default is false) then a UUID may be passed instead of the domain name. The "dom" string is treated as a UUID first and looked up, and if that lookup fails then we treat "dom" as a name as usual.

The optional "readonlydisk" parameter controls what we do for disks which are marked <readonly/> in the libvirt XML. Possible values are:

"readonly" が偽ならば:

The whole call is aborted with an error if any disk with the <readonly/> flag is found.

"readonly" が真ならば:

<readonly/> フラグを持つディスクは読み込み専用で追加されます。

"readonly" が偽ならば:

<readonly/> フラグを持つディスクは読み込み専用で追加されます。他のディスクは読み書き用で追加されます。

"readonly" が真ならば:

<readonly/> フラグを持つディスクは読み込み専用で追加されます。

"readonly" が偽ならば:

<readonly/> フラグを持つディスクは読み書き用で追加されます。

"readonly" が真ならば:

<readonly/> フラグを持つディスクは読み込み専用で追加されます。

"readonly" が真または偽ならば:

<readonly/> フラグのあるディスクはスキップされます

他のオプションパラメーターは "guestfs_add_drive_opts" にそのまま渡されます。

この関数はエラーのとき -1 を返します。

 int
 guestfs_add_drive (guestfs_h *g,

guestfs_add_drive_opts

 int
 guestfs_add_drive_opts (guestfs_h *g,
                         const char *filename,
                         ...);

You may supply a list of optional arguments to this call. Use zero or more of the following pairs of parameters, and terminate the list with "-1" on its own. See "CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS".

 GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_READONLY, int readonly,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, const char *format,

 GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_CACHEMODE, const char *cachemode,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_DISCARD, const char *discard,
 GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_COPYONREAD, int copyonread,

This function adds a disk image called filename to the handle. filename may be a regular host file or a host device.

When this function is called before "guestfs_launch" (the usual case) then the first time you call this function, the disk appears in the API as /dev/sda, the second time as /dev/sdb, and so on.

In libguestfs ≥ 1.20 you can also call this function after launch (with some restrictions). This is called "hotplugging". When hotplugging, you must specify a "label" so that the new disk gets a predictable name. For more information see "HOTPLUGGING".

You don't necessarily need to be root when using libguestfs. However you obviously do need sufficient permissions to access the filename for whatever operations you want to perform (ie. read access if you just want to read the image or write access if you want to modify the image).

This call checks that filename exists.

filename may be the special string "/dev/null". See "NULL DISKS".

オプション引数は次のとおりです:

"readonly"
If true then the image is treated as read-only. Writes are still allowed, but they are stored in a temporary snapshot overlay which is discarded at the end. The disk that you add is not modified.
"format"
This forces the image format. If you omit this (or use "guestfs_add_drive" or "guestfs_add_drive_ro") then the format is automatically detected. Possible formats include "raw" and "qcow2".

Automatic detection of the format opens you up to a potential security hole when dealing with untrusted raw-format images. See CVE-2010-3851 and RHBZ#642934. Specifying the format closes this security hole.

"iface"
This rarely-used option lets you emulate the behaviour of the deprecated "guestfs_add_drive_with_if" call (q.v.)
"name"
The name the drive had in the original guest, e.g. /dev/sdb. This is used as a hint to the guest inspection process if it is available.
"label"
Give the disk a label. The label should be a unique, short string using only ASCII characters "[a-zA-Z]". As well as its usual name in the API (such as /dev/sda), the drive will also be named /dev/disk/guestfs/label.

"ディスクラベル"を参照してください。

"protocol"
The optional protocol argument can be used to select an alternate source protocol.

See also: "REMOTE STORAGE".

"protocol = "file""
filename is interpreted as a local file or device. This is the default if the optional protocol parameter is omitted.
"protocol = "ftp"|"ftps"|"http"|"https"|"tftp""
Connect to a remote FTP, HTTP or TFTP server. The "server" parameter must also be supplied - see below.

See also: "FTP, HTTP AND TFTP"

"protocol = "gluster""
Connect to the GlusterFS server. The "server" parameter must also be supplied - see below.

See also: "GLUSTER"

"protocol = "iscsi""
Connect to the iSCSI server. The "server" parameter must also be supplied - see below. The "username" parameter may be supplied. See below. The "secret" parameter may be supplied. See below.

See also: "ISCSI".

"protocol = "nbd""
Connect to the Network Block Device server. The "server" parameter must also be supplied - see below.

See also: "NETWORK BLOCK DEVICE".

"protocol = "rbd""
Connect to the Ceph (librbd/RBD) server. The "server" parameter must also be supplied - see below. The "username" parameter may be supplied. See below. The "secret" parameter may be supplied. See below.

See also: "CEPH".

"protocol = "sheepdog""
Connect to the Sheepdog server. The "server" parameter may also be supplied - see below.

See also: "SHEEPDOG".

"protocol = "ssh""
Connect to the Secure Shell (ssh) server.

The "server" parameter must be supplied. The "username" parameter may be supplied. See below.

See also: "SSH".

"server"
For protocols which require access to a remote server, this is a list of server(s).

 Protocol       Number of servers required
 --------       --------------------------
 file           List must be empty or param not used at all
 ftp|ftps|http|https|tftp  Exactly one
 gluster        Exactly one
 iscsi          Exactly one
 nbd            Exactly one
 rbd            Zero or more
 sheepdog       Zero or more
 ssh            Exactly one
    

Each list element is a string specifying a server. The string must be in one of the following formats:

 hostname
 hostname:port
 tcp:hostname
 tcp:hostname:port
 unix:/path/to/socket
    

If the port number is omitted, then the standard port number for the protocol is used (see /etc/services).

"username"
For the "ftp", "ftps", "http", "https", "iscsi", "rbd", "ssh" and "tftp" protocols, this specifies the remote username.

If not given, then the local username is used for "ssh", and no authentication is attempted for ceph. But note this sometimes may give unexpected results, for example if using the libvirt backend and if the libvirt backend is configured to start the qemu appliance as a special user such as "qemu.qemu". If in doubt, specify the remote username you want.

"secret"
For the "rbd" protocol only, this specifies the ‘secret’ to use when connecting to the remote device. It must be base64 encoded.

If not given, then a secret matching the given username will be looked up in the default keychain locations, or if no username is given, then no authentication will be used.

"cachemode"
Choose whether or not libguestfs will obey sync operations (safe but slow) or not (unsafe but fast). The possible values for this string are:
"cachemode = "writeback""
これがデフォルトです。

Write operations in the API do not return until a write(2) call has completed in the host [but note this does not imply that anything gets written to disk].

Sync operations in the API, including implicit syncs caused by filesystem journalling, will not return until an fdatasync(2) call has completed in the host, indicating that data has been committed to disk.

"cachemode = "unsafe""
In this mode, there are no guarantees. Libguestfs may cache anything and ignore sync requests. This is suitable only for scratch or temporary disks.
"discard"
Enable or disable discard (a.k.a. trim or unmap) support on this drive. If enabled, operations such as "guestfs_fstrim" will be able to discard / make thin / punch holes in the underlying host file or device.

Possible discard settings are:

"discard = "disable""
Disable discard support. This is the default.
"discard = "enable""
Enable discard support. Fail if discard is not possible.
"discard = "besteffort""
Enable discard support if possible, but don't fail if it is not supported.

Since not all backends and not all underlying systems support discard, this is a good choice if you want to use discard if possible, but don't mind if it doesn't work.

"copyonread"
The boolean parameter "copyonread" enables copy-on-read support. This only affects disk formats which have backing files, and causes reads to be stored in the overlay layer, speeding up multiple reads of the same area of disk.

The default is false.

 GUESTFS_ADD_LIBVIRT_DOM_CACHEMODE, const char *cachemode,
 GUESTFS_ADD_LIBVIRT_DOM_DISCARD, const char *discard,
 GUESTFS_ADD_LIBVIRT_DOM_COPYONREAD, int copyonread,

This function adds the disk(s) attached to the libvirt domain "dom". It works by requesting the domain XML from libvirt, parsing it for disks, and calling "guestfs_add_drive_opts" on each one.

In the C API we declare "void *dom", but really it has type "virDomainPtr dom". This is so we don't need <libvirt.h>.

The number of disks added is returned. This operation is atomic: if an error is returned, then no disks are added.

This function does some minimal checks to make sure the libvirt domain is not running (unless "readonly" is true). In a future version we will try to acquire the libvirt lock on each disk.

Disks must be accessible locally. This often means that adding disks from a remote libvirt connection (see http://libvirt.org/remote.html) will fail unless those disks are accessible via the same device path locally too.

The optional "live" flag controls whether this call will try to connect to a running virtual machine "guestfsd" process if it sees a suitable <channel> element in the libvirt XML definition. The default (if the flag is omitted) is never to try. See "ATTACHING TO RUNNING DAEMONS" for more information.

The optional "readonlydisk" parameter controls what we do for disks which are marked <readonly/> in the libvirt XML. See "guestfs_add_domain" for possible values.

guestfs_available

 int
 guestfs_available (guestfs_h *g,
                    char *const *groups);

This command is used to check the availability of some groups of functionality in the appliance, which not all builds of the libguestfs appliance will be able to provide.

The libguestfs groups, and the functions that those groups correspond to, are listed in "AVAILABILITY". You can also fetch this list at runtime by calling "guestfs_available_all_groups".

The argument "groups" is a list of group names, eg: "["inotify", "augeas"]" would check for the availability of the Linux inotify functions and Augeas (configuration file editing) functions.

The command returns no error if all requested groups are available.

It fails with an error if one or more of the requested groups is unavailable in the appliance.

If an unknown group name is included in the list of groups then an error is always returned.

注記:

  • "guestfs_feature_available" is the same as this call, but with a slightly simpler to use API: that call returns a boolean true/false instead of throwing an error.
  • この関数を呼び出す前に "guestfs_launch" を呼び出す必要があります。

    The reason is because we don't know what groups are supported by the appliance/daemon until it is running and can be queried.

  • If a group of functions is available, this does not necessarily mean that they will work. You still have to check for errors when calling individual API functions even if they are available.
  • It is usually the job of distro packagers to build complete functionality into the libguestfs appliance. Upstream libguestfs, if built from source with all requirements satisfied, will support everything.
  • This call was added in version 1.0.80. In previous versions of libguestfs all you could do would be to speculatively execute a command to find out if the daemon implemented it. See also "guestfs_version".

 char *
 guestfs_case_sensitive_path (guestfs_h *g,
                              const char *path);

This can be used to resolve case insensitive paths on a filesystem which is case sensitive. The use case is to resolve paths which you have read from Windows configuration files or the Windows Registry, to the true path.

The command handles a peculiarity of the Linux ntfs-3g filesystem driver (and probably others), which is that although the underlying filesystem is case-insensitive, the driver exports the filesystem to Linux as case-sensitive.

One consequence of this is that special directories such as C:\windows may appear as /WINDOWS or /windows (or other things) depending on the precise details of how they were created. In Windows itself this would not be a problem.

バグか機能か?次を見て決めてください: http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-faq/#posixfilenames1

"guestfs_case_sensitive_path" attempts to resolve the true case of each element in the path. It will return a resolved path if either the full path or its parent directory exists. If the parent directory exists but the full path does not, the case of the parent directory will be correctly resolved, and the remainder appended unmodified. For example, if the file "/Windows/System32/netkvm.sys" exists:

"guestfs_case_sensitive_path" ("/windows/system32/netkvm.sys")
"Windows/System32/netkvm.sys"
"guestfs_case_sensitive_path" ("/windows/system32/NoSuchFile")
"Windows/System32/NoSuchFile"
"guestfs_case_sensitive_path" ("/windows/system33/netkvm.sys")
ERROR

Note: Because of the above behaviour, "guestfs_case_sensitive_path" cannot be used to check for the existence of a file.

Note: This function does not handle drive names, backslashes etc.

This command computes the checksums of all regular files in directory and then emits a list of those checksums to the local output file "sumsfile".

This can be used for verifying the integrity of a virtual machine. However to be properly secure you should pay attention to the output of the checksum command (it uses the ones from GNU coreutils). In particular when the filename is not printable, coreutils uses a special backslash syntax. For more information, see the GNU coreutils info file.

This call runs a command from the guest filesystem. The filesystem must be mounted, and must contain a compatible operating system (ie. something Linux, with the same or compatible processor architecture).

The single parameter is an argv-style list of arguments. The first element is the name of the program to run. Subsequent elements are parameters. The list must be non-empty (ie. must contain a program name). Note that the command runs directly, and is not invoked via the shell (see "guestfs_sh").

The return value is anything printed to stdout by the command.

If the command returns a non-zero exit status, then this function returns an error message. The error message string is the content of stderr from the command.

The $PATH environment variable will contain at least /usr/bin and /bin. If you require a program from another location, you should provide the full path in the first parameter.

Shared libraries and data files required by the program must be available on filesystems which are mounted in the correct places. It is the caller’s responsibility to ensure all filesystems that are needed are mounted at the right locations.

The compression program used is controlled by the "ctype" parameter. Currently this includes: "compress", "gzip", "bzip2", "xz" or "lzop". Some compression types may not be supported by particular builds of libguestfs, in which case you will get an error containing the substring "not supported".

The optional "level" parameter controls compression level. The meaning and default for this parameter depends on the compression program being used.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

This can be used to add arbitrary hypervisor parameters of the form -param value. Actually it’s not quite arbitrary - we prevent you from setting some parameters which would interfere with parameters that we use.

The first character of "hvparam" string must be a "-" (dash).

"hvvalue" can be NULL.

 GUESTFS_COPY_ATTRIBUTES_ALL, int all,
 GUESTFS_COPY_ATTRIBUTES_MODE, int mode,
 GUESTFS_COPY_ATTRIBUTES_XATTRIBUTES, int xattributes,
 GUESTFS_COPY_ATTRIBUTES_OWNERSHIP, int ownership,

Copy the attributes of a path (which can be a file or a directory) to another path.

By default "no" attribute is copied, so make sure to specify any (or "all" to copy everything).

The optional arguments specify which attributes can be copied:

"mode"
Copy part of the file mode from "source" to "destination". Only the UNIX permissions and the sticky/setuid/setgid bits can be copied.
"xattributes"
Copy the Linux extended attributes (xattrs) from "source" to "destination". This flag does nothing if the linuxxattrs feature is not available (see "guestfs_feature_available").
"ownership"
Copy the owner uid and the group gid of "source" to "destination".
"all"
Copy all the attributes from "source" to "destination". Enabling it enables all the other flags, if they are not specified already.

4 つの呼び出し "guestfs_copy_device_to_device", "guestfs_copy_device_to_file", "guestfs_copy_file_to_device", および "guestfs_copy_file_to_file" は、ソース (デバイス|ファイル) から宛先 (デバイス|ファイル) にコピーできます。

Partial copies can be made since you can specify optionally the source offset, destination offset and size to copy. These values are all specified in bytes. If not given, the offsets both default to zero, and the size defaults to copying as much as possible until we hit the end of the source.

ソースと宛先は同じオブジェクトである可能性があります。しかしながら、重なり合う領域は正しくコピーされないかもしれません。

宛先がファイルならば、必要に応じて作成されます。宛先ファイルが十分に大きくなければ、拡張されます。

If the destination is a file and the "append" flag is not set, then the destination file is truncated. If the "append" flag is set, then the copy appends to the destination file. The "append" flag currently cannot be set for devices.

If the "sparse" flag is true then the call avoids writing blocks that contain only zeroes, which can help in some situations where the backing disk is thin-provisioned. Note that unless the target is already zeroed, using this option will result in incorrect copying.

 GUESTFS_DISK_CREATE_BACKINGFORMAT, const char *backingformat,
 GUESTFS_DISK_CREATE_PREALLOCATION, const char *preallocation,
 GUESTFS_DISK_CREATE_COMPAT, const char *compat,
 GUESTFS_DISK_CREATE_CLUSTERSIZE, int clustersize,

Create a blank disk image called filename (a host file) with format "format" (usually "raw" or "qcow2"). The size is "size" bytes.

If used with the optional "backingfile" parameter, then a snapshot is created on top of the backing file. In this case, "size" must be passed as "-1". The size of the snapshot is the same as the size of the backing file, which is discovered automatically. You are encouraged to also pass "backingformat" to describe the format of "backingfile".

If filename refers to a block device, then the device is formatted. The "size" is ignored since block devices have an intrinsic size.

The other optional parameters are:

"preallocation"
If format is "raw", then this can be either "off" (or "sparse") or "full" to create a sparse or fully allocated file respectively. The default is "off".

If format is "qcow2", then this can be "off" (or "sparse"), "metadata" or "full". Preallocating metadata can be faster when doing lots of writes, but uses more space. The default is "off".

"compat"
"qcow2" only: Pass the string 1.1 to use the advanced qcow2 format supported by qemu ≥ 1.1.

 GUESTFS_DOWNLOAD_BLOCKS_UNALLOCATED, int unallocated,

Download the data units from start address to stop from the disk partition (eg. /dev/sda1) and save them as filename on the local machine.

The use of this API on sparse disk image formats such as QCOW, may result in large zero-filled files downloaded on the host.

The size of a data unit varies across filesystem implementations. On NTFS filesystems data units are referred as clusters while on ExtX ones they are referred as fragments.

If the optional "unallocated" flag is true (default is false), only the unallocated blocks will be extracted. This is useful to detect hidden data or to retrieve deleted files which data units have not been overwritten yet.

Install the SYSLINUX bootloader on the device mounted at directory. Unlike "guestfs_syslinux" which requires a FAT filesystem, this can be used on an ext2/3/4 or btrfs filesystem.

The directory parameter can be either a mountpoint, or a directory within the mountpoint.

You also have to mark the partition as "active" ("guestfs_part_set_bootable") and a Master Boot Record must be installed (eg. using "guestfs_pwrite_device") on the first sector of the whole disk. The SYSLINUX package comes with some suitable Master Boot Records. See the extlinux(1) man page for further information.

Additional configuration can be supplied to SYSLINUX by placing a file called extlinux.conf on the filesystem under directory. For further information about the contents of this file, see extlinux(1).

This command preallocates a file (containing zero bytes) named "path" of size "len" bytes. If the file exists already, it is overwritten.

Note that this call allocates disk blocks for the file. To create a sparse file use "guestfs_truncate_size" instead.

The deprecated call "guestfs_fallocate" does the same, but owing to an oversight it only allowed 30 bit lengths to be specified, effectively limiting the maximum size of files created through that call to 1GB.

"tsk_type"
Basic file type information. See below for a detailed list of values.
"tsk_size"
File size in bytes. It might be "-1" if the node has been deleted.
"tsk_name"
The file path relative to its directory.
"tsk_flags"
Bitfield containing extra information regarding the entry. It contains the logical OR of the following values:
0x0001
If set to 1, the file is allocated and visible within the filesystem. Otherwise, the file has been deleted. Under certain circumstances, the function "download_inode" can be used to recover deleted files.
0x0002
Filesystem such as NTFS and Ext2 or greater, separate the file name from the metadata structure. The bit is set to 1 when the file name is in an unallocated state and the metadata structure is in an allocated one. This generally implies the metadata has been reallocated to a new file. Therefore, information such as file type, file size, timestamps, number of links and symlink target might not correspond with the ones of the original deleted entry.
0x0004
The bit is set to 1 when the file is compressed using filesystem native compression support (NTFS). The API is not able to detect application level compression.
"tsk_atime_sec"
"tsk_atime_nsec"
"tsk_mtime_sec"
"tsk_mtime_nsec"
"tsk_ctime_sec"
"tsk_ctime_nsec"
"tsk_crtime_sec"
"tsk_crtime_nsec"
Respectively, access, modification, last status change and creation time in Unix format in seconds and nanoseconds.
"tsk_nlink"
Number of file names pointing to this entry.
"tsk_link"
If the entry is a symbolic link, this field will contain the path to the target file.

The "tsk_type" field will contain one of the following characters:

'b'
ブロック特殊
'c'
キャラクター特殊
'd'
ディレクトリ
'f'
FIFO (名前付きパイプ)
'l'
シンボリックリンク

This function returns a "struct guestfs_tsk_dirent_list *", or NULL if there was an error. The caller must call "guestfs_free_tsk_dirent_list" after use.

This long-running command can generate progress notification messages so that the caller can display a progress bar or indicator. To receive these messages, the caller must register a progress event callback. See "GUESTFS_EVENT_PROGRESS".

This function depends on the feature "libtsk". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

guestfs_fill

 int
 guestfs_fill (guestfs_h *g,
               int c,
               int len,
               const char *path);

このコマンドは "path" という新しいファイルを作成します。初期の内容は "len" オクテットの "c" です。ここで "c""[0..255]" の範囲の数値である必要があります。

To fill a file with zero bytes (sparsely), it is much more efficient to use "guestfs_truncate_size". To create a file with a pattern of repeating bytes use "guestfs_fill_pattern".

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

 guestfs_fill_dir (guestfs_h *g,
                   const char *dir,
                   int nr);

This function, useful for testing filesystems, creates "nr" empty files in the directory "dir" with names 00000000 through "nr-1" (ie. each file name is 8 digits long padded with zeroes).

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

                       int len,
                       const char *path);

This function is like "guestfs_fill" except that it creates a new file of length "len" containing the repeating pattern of bytes in "pattern". The pattern is truncated if necessary to ensure the length of the file is exactly "len" bytes.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

guestfs_find

 char **
 guestfs_find (guestfs_h *g,
               const char *directory);

This command lists out all files and directories, recursively, starting at directory. It is essentially equivalent to running the shell command "find directory -print" but some post-processing happens on the output, described below.

This returns a list of strings without any prefix. Thus if the directory structure was:

 /tmp/a
 /tmp/b
 /tmp/c/d

then the returned list from "guestfs_find" /tmp would be 4 elements:

 a
 b
 c
 c/d

If directory is not a directory, then this command returns an error.

返された一覧は並び替えられています。

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings (like environ(3)), or NULL if there was an error. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

This command lists out all files and directories, recursively, starting at directory, placing the resulting list in the external file called files.

This command works the same way as "guestfs_find" with the following exceptions:

  • The resulting list is written to an external file.
  • Items (filenames) in the result are separated by "\0" characters. See find(1) option -print0.
  • 結果の一覧はソートされていません。

This runs the filesystem checker (fsck) on "device" which should have filesystem type "fstype".

返された整数は状態です。 "fsck" からの状態コードの一覧は fsck(8) を参照してください。

注:

  • 複数の状態コードが同時に合計されるかもしれません。
  • A non-zero return code can mean "success", for example if errors have been corrected on the filesystem.
  • Checking or repairing NTFS volumes is not supported (by linux-ntfs).

This command is entirely equivalent to running "fsck -a -t fstype device".

guestfs_fstrim

 int
 guestfs_fstrim (guestfs_h *g,
                 const char *mountpoint,
                 ...);

You may supply a list of optional arguments to this call. Use zero or more of the following pairs of parameters, and terminate the list with "-1" on its own. See "CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS".

 GUESTFS_FSTRIM_OFFSET, int64_t offset,
 GUESTFS_FSTRIM_LENGTH, int64_t length,
 GUESTFS_FSTRIM_MINIMUMFREEEXTENT, int64_t minimumfreeextent,

Trim the free space in the filesystem mounted on "mountpoint". The filesystem must be mounted read-write.

The filesystem contents are not affected, but any free space in the filesystem is "trimmed", that is, given back to the host device, thus making disk images more sparse, allowing unused space in qcow2 files to be reused, etc.

This operation requires support in libguestfs, the mounted filesystem, the host filesystem, qemu and the host kernel. If this support isn't present it may give an error or even appear to run but do nothing.

In the case where the kernel vfs driver does not support trimming, this call will fail with errno set to "ENOTSUP". Currently this happens when trying to trim FAT filesystems.

See also "guestfs_zero_free_space". That is a slightly different operation that turns free space in the filesystem into zeroes. It is valid to call "guestfs_fstrim" either instead of, or after calling "guestfs_zero_free_space".

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

guestfs_get_e2attrs

 char *
 guestfs_get_e2attrs (guestfs_h *g,
                      const char *file);

This returns the file attributes associated with file.

The attributes are a set of bits associated with each inode which affect the behaviour of the file. The attributes are returned as a string of letters (described below). The string may be empty, indicating that no file attributes are set for this file.

These attributes are only present when the file is located on an ext2/3/4 filesystem. Using this call on other filesystem types will result in an error.

The characters (file attributes) in the returned string are currently:

'A'

'a'
ファイルは追記専用です。
'c'
ファイルはディスクにおいて圧縮されます。
'D'

's'
ファイルが削除されるとき、そのブロックはすべてゼロが書き込みされます。
'S'
このファイルへの変更は同期的にディスクに書き込まれます。
'T'
(Directories only.) This is a hint to the block allocator that subdirectories contained in this directory should be spread across blocks. If not present, the block allocator will try to group subdirectories together.
't'
For a file, this disables tail-merging. (Not used by upstream implementations of ext2.)
'u'
When the file is deleted, its blocks will be saved, allowing the file to be undeleted.
'X'
圧縮ファイルの内容にアクセスできます。
'Z'
圧縮されたファイルがダーティーです。

More file attributes may be added to this list later. Not all file attributes may be set for all kinds of files. For detailed information, consult the chattr(1) man page.

                   const char *name,
                   size_t *size_r);

Get a single extended attribute from file "path" named "name". This call follows symlinks. If you want to lookup an extended attribute for the symlink itself, use "guestfs_lgetxattr".

Normally it is better to get all extended attributes from a file in one go by calling "guestfs_getxattrs". However some Linux filesystem implementations are buggy and do not provide a way to list out attributes. For these filesystems (notably ntfs-3g) you have to know the names of the extended attributes you want in advance and call this function.

Extended attribute values are blobs of binary data. If there is no extended attribute named "name", this returns an error.

関連項目: "guestfs_getxattrs", "guestfs_lgetxattr", attr(5)

This function returns a buffer, or NULL on error. The size of the returned buffer is written to *size_r. The caller must free the returned buffer after use.

                           ...);

You may supply a list of optional arguments to this call. Use zero or more of the following pairs of parameters, and terminate the list with "-1" on its own. See "CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS".

 GUESTFS_GLOB_EXPAND_OPTS_DIRECTORYSLASH, int directoryslash,

This command searches for all the pathnames matching "pattern" according to the wildcard expansion rules used by the shell.

If no paths match, then this returns an empty list (note: not an error).

It is just a wrapper around the C glob(3) function with flags "GLOB_MARK|GLOB_BRACE". See that manual page for more details.

"directoryslash" controls whether use the "GLOB_MARK" flag for glob(3), and it defaults to true. It can be explicitly set as off to return no trailing slashes in filenames of directories.

Notice that there is no equivalent command for expanding a device name (eg. /dev/sd*). Use "guestfs_list_devices", "guestfs_list_partitions" etc functions instead.

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings (like environ(3)), or NULL if there was an error. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

You may supply a list of optional arguments to this call. Use zero or more of the following pairs of parameters, and terminate the list with "-1" on its own. See "CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS".

 GUESTFS_GREP_OPTS_EXTENDED, int extended,
 GUESTFS_GREP_OPTS_FIXED, int fixed,
 GUESTFS_GREP_OPTS_INSENSITIVE, int insensitive,
 GUESTFS_GREP_OPTS_COMPRESSED, int compressed,

This calls the external "grep" program and returns the matching lines.

オプションのフラグは次のとおりです:

"extended"
Use extended regular expressions. This is the same as using the -E flag.
"fixed"
Match fixed (don't use regular expressions). This is the same as using the -F flag.
"insensitive"
Match case-insensitive. This is the same as using the -i flag.
"compressed"
Use "zgrep" instead of "grep". This allows the input to be compress- or gzip-compressed.

This command installs GRUB 1 (the Grand Unified Bootloader) on "device", with the root directory being "root".

注:

  • There is currently no way in the API to install grub2, which is used by most modern Linux guests. It is possible to run the grub2 command from the guest, although see the caveats in "RUNNING COMMANDS".
  • This uses "grub-install" from the host. Unfortunately grub is not always compatible with itself, so this only works in rather narrow circumstances. Careful testing with each guest version is advisable.
  • If grub-install reports the error "No suitable drive was found in the generated device map." it may be that you need to create a /boot/grub/device.map file first that contains the mapping between grub device names and Linux device names. It is usually sufficient to create a file containing:

     (hd0) /dev/vda
        

    replacing /dev/vda with the name of the installation device.

"mask" に一覧化されたイベントに対して "path" を監視します。

Note that if "path" is a directory then events within that directory are watched, but this does not happen recursively (in subdirectories).

Note for non-C or non-Linux callers: the inotify events are defined by the Linux kernel ABI and are listed in /usr/include/sys/inotify.h.

 char **
 guestfs_inotify_files (guestfs_h *g);

This function is a helpful wrapper around "guestfs_inotify_read" which just returns a list of pathnames of objects that were touched. The returned pathnames are sorted and deduplicated.

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings (like environ(3)), or NULL if there was an error. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

guestfs_inotify_init

 int
 guestfs_inotify_init (guestfs_h *g,
                       int maxevents);

This command creates a new inotify handle. The inotify subsystem can be used to notify events which happen to objects in the guest filesystem.

"maxevents" is the maximum number of events which will be queued up between calls to "guestfs_inotify_read" or "guestfs_inotify_files". If this is passed as 0, then the kernel (or previously set) default is used. For Linux 2.6.29 the default was 16384 events. Beyond this limit, the kernel throws away events, but records the fact that it threw them away by setting a flag "IN_Q_OVERFLOW" in the returned structure list (see "guestfs_inotify_read").

何らかのイベントを生成する前に、いくつかのウォッチと内部ウォッチリストに追加する必要があります。 参照: "guestfs_inotify_add_watch" および "guestfs_inotify_rm_watch"

Queued up events should be read periodically by calling "guestfs_inotify_read" (or "guestfs_inotify_files" which is just a helpful wrapper around "guestfs_inotify_read"). If you don't read the events out often enough then you risk the internal queue overflowing.

The handle should be closed after use by calling "guestfs_inotify_close". This also removes any watches automatically.

See also inotify(7) for an overview of the inotify interface as exposed by the Linux kernel, which is roughly what we expose via libguestfs. Note that there is one global inotify handle per libguestfs instance.

Return the complete queue of events that have happened since the previous read call.

何もイベントが起きないと、これは空の一覧を返します。

Note: In order to make sure that all events have been read, you must call this function repeatedly until it returns an empty list. The reason is that the call will read events up to the maximum appliance-to-host message size and leave remaining events in the queue.

This function returns a "struct guestfs_inotify_event_list *", or NULL if there was an error. The caller must call "guestfs_free_inotify_event_list" after use.

 guestfs_inspect_get_drive_mappings (guestfs_h *g,
                                     const char *root);

This call is useful for Windows which uses a primitive system of assigning drive letters (like C:\) to partitions. This inspection API examines the Windows Registry to find out how disks/partitions are mapped to drive letters, and returns a hash table as in the example below:

 C      =>     /dev/vda2
 E      =>     /dev/vdb1
 F      =>     /dev/vdc1

Note that keys are drive letters. For Windows, the key is case insensitive and just contains the drive letter, without the customary colon separator character.

In future we may support other operating systems that also used drive letters, but the keys for those might not be case insensitive and might be longer than 1 character. For example in OS-9, hard drives were named "h0", "h1" etc.

For Windows guests, currently only hard drive mappings are returned. Removable disks (eg. DVD-ROMs) are ignored.

For guests that do not use drive mappings, or if the drive mappings could not be determined, this returns an empty hash table.

詳細は "INSPECTION" を確認してください。合わせて "guestfs_inspect_get_mountpoints", "guestfs_inspect_get_filesystems" を参照してください。

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings, or NULL if there was an error. The array of strings will always have length "2n+1", where "n" keys and values alternate, followed by the trailing NULL entry. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

This function is deprecated. There is no replacement. Consult the API documentation in guestfs(3) for further information.

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

Before libguestfs 1.38, there was some unreliable support for detecting installer CDs. This API would return:

                           ...);

You may supply a list of optional arguments to this call. Use zero or more of the following pairs of parameters, and terminate the list with "-1" on its own. See "CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS".

 GUESTFS_INSPECT_GET_ICON_FAVICON, int favicon,
 GUESTFS_INSPECT_GET_ICON_HIGHQUALITY, int highquality,

This function returns an icon corresponding to the inspected operating system. The icon is returned as a buffer containing a PNG image (re-encoded to PNG if necessary).

If it was not possible to get an icon this function returns a zero-length (non-NULL) buffer. Callers must check for this case.

Libguestfs will start by looking for a file called /etc/favicon.png or C:\etc\favicon.png and if it has the correct format, the contents of this file will be returned. You can disable favicons by passing the optional "favicon" boolean as false (default is true).

If finding the favicon fails, then we look in other places in the guest for a suitable icon.

If the optional "highquality" boolean is true then only high quality icons are returned, which means only icons of high resolution with an alpha channel. The default (false) is to return any icon we can, even if it is of substandard quality.

注:

  • Unlike most other inspection API calls, the guest’s disks must be mounted up before you call this, since it needs to read information from the guest filesystem during the call.
  • Security: The icon data comes from the untrusted guest, and should be treated with caution. PNG files have been known to contain exploits. Ensure that libpng (or other relevant libraries) are fully up to date before trying to process or display the icon.
  • The PNG image returned can be any size. It might not be square. Libguestfs tries to return the largest, highest quality icon available. The application must scale the icon to the required size.
  • Extracting icons from Windows guests requires the external "wrestool" program from the "icoutils" package, and several programs ("bmptopnm", "pnmtopng", "pamcut") from the "netpbm" package. These must be installed separately.
  • Operating system icons are usually trademarks. Seek legal advice before using trademarks in applications.

This function returns a buffer, or NULL on error. The size of the returned buffer is written to *size_r. The caller must free the returned buffer after use.

 int
 guestfs_inspect_get_major_version (guestfs_h *g,

This returns the major version number of the inspected operating system.

Windows uses a consistent versioning scheme which is not reflected in the popular public names used by the operating system. Notably the operating system known as "Windows 7" is really version 6.1 (ie. major = 6, minor = 1). You can find out the real versions corresponding to releases of Windows by consulting Wikipedia or MSDN.

If the version could not be determined, then 0 is returned.

 char **
 guestfs_inspect_get_mountpoints (guestfs_h *g,
                                  const char *root);

This returns a hash of where we think the filesystems associated with this operating system should be mounted. Callers should note that this is at best an educated guess made by reading configuration files such as /etc/fstab. In particular note that this may return filesystems which are non-existent or not mountable and callers should be prepared to handle or ignore failures if they try to mount them.

Each element in the returned hashtable has a key which is the path of the mountpoint (eg. /boot) and a value which is the filesystem that would be mounted there (eg. /dev/sda1).

Non-mounted devices such as swap devices are not returned in this list.

For operating systems like Windows which still use drive letters, this call will only return an entry for the first drive "mounted on" /. For information about the mapping of drive letters to partitions, see "guestfs_inspect_get_drive_mappings".

This function and "guestfs_inspect_get_package_management" return the package format and package management tool used by the inspected operating system. For example for Fedora these functions would return "rpm" (package format), and "yum" or "dnf" (package management).

This returns the string "unknown" if we could not determine the package format or if the operating system does not have a real packaging system (eg. Windows).

Possible strings include: "rpm", "deb", "ebuild", "pisi", "pacman", "pkgsrc", "apk", "xbps". Future versions of libguestfs may return other strings.

This returns the product variant of the inspected operating system.

For Windows guests, this returns the contents of the Registry key "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" "InstallationType" which is usually a string such as "Client" or "Server" (other values are possible). This can be used to distinguish consumer and enterprise versions of Windows that have the same version number (for example, Windows 7 and Windows 2008 Server are both version 6.1, but the former is "Client" and the latter is "Server").

For enterprise Linux guests, in future we intend this to return the product variant such as "Desktop", "Server" and so on. But this is not implemented at present.

If the product variant could not be determined, then the string "unknown" is returned.

This function is deprecated. In new code, use the "guestfs_inspect_list_applications2" call instead.

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

Return the list of applications installed in the operating system.

Note: This call works differently from other parts of the inspection API. You have to call "guestfs_inspect_os", then "guestfs_inspect_get_mountpoints", then mount up the disks, before calling this. Listing applications is a significantly more difficult operation which requires access to the full filesystem. Also note that unlike the other "guestfs_inspect_get_*" calls which are just returning data cached in the libguestfs handle, this call actually reads parts of the mounted filesystems during the call.

This returns an empty list if the inspection code was not able to determine the list of applications.

The application structure contains the following fields:

"app_name"
アプリケーションの名前。 Red Hat 派生および Debian 派生の Linux 仮想マシンの場合、パッケージ名になります。
"app_display_name"
The display name of the application, sometimes localized to the install language of the guest operating system.

If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "". Callers needing to display something can use "app_name" instead.

"app_epoch"
For package managers which use epochs, this contains the epoch of the package (an integer). If unavailable, this is returned as 0.
"app_version"
The version string of the application or package. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_release"
The release string of the application or package, for package managers that use this. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_install_path"
The installation path of the application (on operating systems such as Windows which use installation paths). This path is in the format used by the guest operating system, it is not a libguestfs path.

If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".

"app_trans_path"
The install path translated into a libguestfs path. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_publisher"
The name of the publisher of the application, for package managers that use this. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_url"
The URL (eg. upstream URL) of the application. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_source_package"
For packaging systems which support this, the name of the source package. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_summary"
A short (usually one line) description of the application or package. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".
"app_description"
A longer description of the application or package. If unavailable this is returned as an empty string "".

guestfs_inspect_os

 char **
 guestfs_inspect_os (guestfs_h *g);

This function uses other libguestfs functions and certain heuristics to inspect the disk(s) (usually disks belonging to a virtual machine), looking for operating systems.

The list returned is empty if no operating systems were found.

If one operating system was found, then this returns a list with a single element, which is the name of the root filesystem of this operating system. It is also possible for this function to return a list containing more than one element, indicating a dual-boot or multi-boot virtual machine, with each element being the root filesystem of one of the operating systems.

You can pass the root string(s) returned to other "guestfs_inspect_get_*" functions in order to query further information about each operating system, such as the name and version.

This function uses other libguestfs features such as "guestfs_mount_ro" and "guestfs_umount_all" in order to mount and unmount filesystems and look at the contents. This should be called with no disks currently mounted. The function may also use Augeas, so any existing Augeas handle will be closed.

This function cannot decrypt encrypted disks. The caller must do that first (supplying the necessary keys) if the disk is encrypted.

Move to the next journal entry. You have to call this at least once after opening the handle before you are able to read data.

The returned boolean tells you if there are any more journal records to read. "true" means you can read the next record (eg. using "guestfs_journal_get"), and "false" means you have reached the end of the journal.

This function returns a C truth value on success or -1 on error.

This function depends on the feature "journal". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

guestfs_journal_open

 int
 guestfs_journal_open (guestfs_h *g,
                       const char *directory);

Open the systemd journal located in directory. Any previously opened journal handle is closed.

The contents of the journal can be read using "guestfs_journal_next" and "guestfs_journal_get".

After you have finished using the journal, you should close the handle by calling "guestfs_journal_close".

guestfs_launch

 int
 guestfs_launch (guestfs_h *g);

You should call this after configuring the handle (eg. adding drives) but before performing any actions.

Do not call "guestfs_launch" twice on the same handle. Although it will not give an error (for historical reasons), the precise behaviour when you do this is not well defined. Handles are very cheap to create, so create a new one for each launch.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

This long-running command can generate progress notification messages so that the caller can display a progress bar or indicator. To receive these messages, the caller must register a progress event callback. See "GUESTFS_EVENT_PROGRESS".

                 const char *path);

Change the file owner to "owner" and group to "group". This is like "guestfs_chown" but if "path" is a symlink then the link itself is changed, not the target.

Only numeric uid and gid are supported. If you want to use names, you will need to locate and parse the password file yourself (Augeas support makes this relatively easy).

guestfs_ldmtool_create_all

 int
 guestfs_ldmtool_create_all (guestfs_h *g);

This function scans all block devices looking for Windows dynamic disk volumes and partitions, and creates devices for any that were found.

Call "guestfs_list_ldm_volumes" and "guestfs_list_ldm_partitions" to return all devices.

Note that you don't normally need to call this explicitly, since it is done automatically at "guestfs_launch" time. However you might want to call this function if you have hotplugged disks or have just created a Windows dynamic disk.

                    const char *name,
                    size_t *size_r);

Get a single extended attribute from file "path" named "name". If "path" is a symlink, then this call returns an extended attribute from the symlink.

Normally it is better to get all extended attributes from a file in one go by calling "guestfs_getxattrs". However some Linux filesystem implementations are buggy and do not provide a way to list out attributes. For these filesystems (notably ntfs-3g) you have to know the names of the extended attributes you want in advance and call this function.

Extended attribute values are blobs of binary data. If there is no extended attribute named "name", this returns an error.

関連項目: "guestfs_lgetxattrs", "guestfs_getxattr", attr(5)

This function returns a buffer, or NULL on error. The size of the returned buffer is written to *size_r. The caller must free the returned buffer after use.

guestfs_list_disk_labels

 char **
 guestfs_list_disk_labels (guestfs_h *g);

If you add drives using the optional "label" parameter of "guestfs_add_drive_opts", you can use this call to map between disk labels, and raw block device and partition names (like /dev/sda and /dev/sda1).

This returns a hashtable, where keys are the disk labels (without the /dev/disk/guestfs prefix), and the values are the full raw block device and partition names (eg. /dev/sda and /dev/sda1).

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings, or NULL if there was an error. The array of strings will always have length "2n+1", where "n" keys and values alternate, followed by the trailing NULL entry. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

(1.11.15 において追加)

guestfs_list_filesystems

 char **
 guestfs_list_filesystems (guestfs_h *g);

This inspection command looks for filesystems on partitions, block devices and logical volumes, returning a list of "mountables" containing filesystems and their type.

The return value is a hash, where the keys are the devices containing filesystems, and the values are the filesystem types. For example:

 "/dev/sda1" => "ntfs"
 "/dev/sda2" => "ext2"
 "/dev/vg_guest/lv_root" => "ext4"
 "/dev/vg_guest/lv_swap" => "swap"

The key is not necessarily a block device. It may also be an opaque ‘mountable’ string which can be passed to "guestfs_mount".

The value can have the special value "unknown", meaning the content of the device is undetermined or empty. "swap" means a Linux swap partition.

In libguestfs ≤ 1.36 this command ran other libguestfs commands, which might have included "guestfs_mount" and "guestfs_umount", and therefore you had to use this soon after launch and only when nothing else was mounted. This restriction is removed in libguestfs ≥ 1.38.

Not all of the filesystems returned will be mountable. In particular, swap partitions are returned in the list. Also this command does not check that each filesystem found is valid and mountable, and some filesystems might be mountable but require special options. Filesystems may not all belong to a single logical operating system (use "guestfs_inspect_os" to look for OSes).

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings, or NULL if there was an error. The array of strings will always have length "2n+1", where "n" keys and values alternate, followed by the trailing NULL entry. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

This command opens a block device which has been encrypted according to the Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS) standard.

"device" is the encrypted block device or partition.

The caller must supply one of the keys associated with the LUKS block device, in the "key" parameter.

This creates a new block device called /dev/mapper/mapname. Reads and writes to this block device are decrypted from and encrypted to the underlying "device" respectively.

If this block device contains LVM volume groups, then calling "guestfs_lvm_scan" with the "activate" parameter "true" will make them visible.

This scans all block devices and rebuilds the list of LVM physical volumes, volume groups and logical volumes.

If the "activate" parameter is "true" then newly found volume groups and logical volumes are activated, meaning the LV /dev/VG/LV devices become visible.

When a libguestfs handle is launched it scans for existing devices, so you do not normally need to use this API. However it is useful when you have added a new device or deleted an existing device (such as when the "guestfs_luks_open" API is used).

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

guestfs_lvm_set_filter

 int
 guestfs_lvm_set_filter (guestfs_h *g,
                         char *const *devices);

This sets the LVM device filter so that LVM will only be able to "see" the block devices in the list "devices", and will ignore all other attached block devices.

Where disk image(s) contain duplicate PVs or VGs, this command is useful to get LVM to ignore the duplicates, otherwise LVM can get confused. Note also there are two types of duplication possible: either cloned PVs/VGs which have identical UUIDs; or VGs that are not cloned but just happen to have the same name. In normal operation you cannot create this situation, but you can do it outside LVM, eg. by cloning disk images or by bit twiddling inside the LVM metadata.

This command also clears the LVM cache and performs a volume group scan.

You can filter whole block devices or individual partitions.

You cannot use this if any VG is currently in use (eg. contains a mounted filesystem), even if you are not filtering out that VG.

This call allows you to get the extended attributes of multiple files, where all files are in the directory "path". "names" is the list of files from this directory.

On return you get a flat list of xattr structs which must be interpreted sequentially. The first xattr struct always has a zero-length "attrname". "attrval" in this struct is zero-length to indicate there was an error doing "lgetxattr" for this file, or is a C string which is a decimal number (the number of following attributes for this file, which could be "0"). Then after the first xattr struct are the zero or more attributes for the first named file. This repeats for the second and subsequent files.

This call is intended for programs that want to efficiently list a directory contents without making many round-trips. See also "guestfs_lstatlist" for a similarly efficient call for getting standard stats.

"mke2fs" is used to create an ext2, ext3, or ext4 filesystem on "device".

The optional "blockscount" is the size of the filesystem in blocks. If omitted it defaults to the size of "device". Note if the filesystem is too small to contain a journal, "mke2fs" will silently create an ext2 filesystem instead.

"guestfs_mkmountpoint" および "guestfs_rmmountpoint" は、最初のファイルシステムをマウントする前に追加のマウントポイントを作成するために使用できる、特別な呼び出しです。

These calls are only necessary in some very limited circumstances, mainly the case where you want to mount a mix of unrelated and/or read-only filesystems together.

For example, live CDs often contain a "Russian doll" nest of filesystems, an ISO outer layer, with a squashfs image inside, with an ext2/3 image inside that. You can unpack this as follows in guestfish:

 add-ro Fedora-11-i686-Live.iso
 run
 mkmountpoint /cd
 mkmountpoint /sqsh
 mkmountpoint /ext3fs
 mount /dev/sda /cd
 mount-loop /cd/LiveOS/squashfs.img /sqsh
 mount-loop /sqsh/LiveOS/ext3fs.img /ext3fs

The inner filesystem is now unpacked under the /ext3fs mountpoint.

"guestfs_mkmountpoint" is not compatible with "guestfs_umount_all". You may get unexpected errors if you try to mix these calls. It is safest to manually unmount filesystems and remove mountpoints after use.

"guestfs_umount_all" unmounts filesystems by sorting the paths longest first, so for this to work for manual mountpoints, you must ensure that the innermost mountpoints have the longest pathnames, as in the example code above.

詳細は https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=599503 を参照してください

Autosync [see "guestfs_set_autosync", this is set by default on handles] can cause "guestfs_umount_all" to be called when the handle is closed which can also trigger these issues.

                const char *path);

This call creates block or character special devices, or named pipes (FIFOs).

The "mode" parameter should be the mode, using the standard constants. "devmajor" and "devminor" are the device major and minor numbers, only used when creating block and character special devices.

Note that, just like mknod(2), the mode must be bitwise OR'd with S_IFBLK, S_IFCHR, S_IFIFO or S_IFSOCK (otherwise this call just creates a regular file). These constants are available in the standard Linux header files, or you can use "guestfs_mknod_b", "guestfs_mknod_c" or "guestfs_mkfifo" which are wrappers around this command which bitwise OR in the appropriate constant for you.

 GUESTFS_MKSQUASHFS_EXCLUDES, char *const *excludes,

Create a squashfs filesystem for the specified "path".

The optional "compress" flag controls compression. If not given, then the output compressed using "gzip". Otherwise one of the following strings may be given to select the compression type of the squashfs: "gzip", "lzma", "lzo", "lz4", "xz".

The other optional arguments are:

 int
 guestfs_mount (guestfs_h *g,
                const char *mountable,
                const char *mountpoint);

Mount a guest disk at a position in the filesystem. Block devices are named /dev/sda, /dev/sdb and so on, as they were added to the guest. If those block devices contain partitions, they will have the usual names (eg. /dev/sda1). Also LVM /dev/VG/LV-style names can be used, or ‘mountable’ strings returned by "guestfs_list_filesystems" or "guestfs_inspect_get_mountpoints".

The rules are the same as for mount(2): A filesystem must first be mounted on / before others can be mounted. Other filesystems can only be mounted on directories which already exist.

The mounted filesystem is writable, if we have sufficient permissions on the underlying device.

Before libguestfs 1.13.16, this call implicitly added the options "sync" and "noatime". The "sync" option greatly slowed writes and caused many problems for users. If your program might need to work with older versions of libguestfs, use "guestfs_mount_options" instead (using an empty string for the first parameter if you don't want any options).

 GUESTFS_MOUNT_LOCAL_READONLY, int readonly,
 GUESTFS_MOUNT_LOCAL_OPTIONS, const char *options,
 GUESTFS_MOUNT_LOCAL_CACHETIMEOUT, int cachetimeout,
 GUESTFS_MOUNT_LOCAL_DEBUGCALLS, int debugcalls,

This call exports the libguestfs-accessible filesystem to a local mountpoint (directory) called "localmountpoint". Ordinary reads and writes to files and directories under "localmountpoint" are redirected through libguestfs.

If the optional "readonly" flag is set to true, then writes to the filesystem return error "EROFS".

"options" is a comma-separated list of mount options. See guestmount(1) for some useful options.

"cachetimeout" sets the timeout (in seconds) for cached directory entries. The default is 60 seconds. See guestmount(1) for further information.

If "debugcalls" is set to true, then additional debugging information is generated for every FUSE call.

When "guestfs_mount_local" returns, the filesystem is ready, but is not processing requests (access to it will block). You have to call "guestfs_mount_local_run" to run the main loop.

This command runs the ntfs-3g.probe(8) command which probes an NTFS "device" for mountability. (Not all NTFS volumes can be mounted read-write, and some cannot be mounted at all).

"rw" is a boolean flag. Set it to true if you want to test if the volume can be mounted read-write. Set it to false if you want to test if the volume can be mounted read-only.

The return value is an integer which 0 if the operation would succeed, or some non-zero value documented in the ntfs-3g.probe(8) manual page.

If this option is true, then force the resize of the filesystem even if the filesystem is marked as requiring a consistency check.

After the resize operation, the filesystem is always marked as requiring a consistency check (for safety). You have to boot into Windows to perform this check and clear this condition.

This command adds a partition to "device". If there is no partition table on the device, call "guestfs_part_init" first.

The "prlogex" parameter is the type of partition. Normally you should pass "p" or "primary" here, but MBR partition tables also support "l" (or "logical") and "e" (or "extended") partition types.

"startsect" and "endsect" are the start and end of the partition in sectors. "endsect" may be negative, which means it counts backwards from the end of the disk ("-1" is the last sector).

                    const char *device,
                    const char *parttype);

This creates an empty partition table on "device" of one of the partition types listed below. Usually "parttype" should be either "msdos" or "gpt" (for large disks).

Initially there are no partitions. Following this, you should call "guestfs_part_add" for each partition required.

Possible values for "parttype" are:

Intel EFI / GPT パーティションテーブル。

This is recommended for >= 2 TB partitions that will be accessed from Linux and Intel-based Mac OS X. It also has limited backwards compatibility with the "mbr" format.

The standard PC "Master Boot Record" (MBR) format used by MS-DOS and Windows. This partition type will only work for device sizes up to 2 TB. For large disks we recommend using "gpt".

Other partition table types that may work but are not supported include:

AIX ディスクラベル。
Amiga "Rigid Disk Block" 形式。
BSD ディスクラベル.
DASD, IBM メインフレームにおいて使用.
MIPS/SGI ボリューム.
古い Mac パーティション形式。最近の Mac は "gpt" を使用します。

                      int64_t endsect);

This command resizes the partition numbered "partnum" on "device" by moving the end position.

Note that this does not modify any filesystem present in the partition. If you wish to do this, you will need to use filesystem resizing commands like "guestfs_resize2fs".

When growing a partition you will want to grow the filesystem afterwards, but when shrinking, you need to shrink the filesystem before the partition.

                       const char *path,
                       char *const *names);

This call allows you to do a "readlink" operation on multiple files, where all files are in the directory "path". "names" is the list of files from this directory.

On return you get a list of strings, with a one-to-one correspondence to the "names" list. Each string is the value of the symbolic link.

If the readlink(2) operation fails on any name, then the corresponding result string is the empty string "". However the whole operation is completed even if there were readlink(2) errors, and so you can call this function with names where you don't know if they are symbolic links already (albeit slightly less efficient).

This call is intended for programs that want to efficiently list a directory contents without making many round-trips.

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings (like environ(3)), or NULL if there was an error. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

 GUESTFS_REMOUNT_RW, int rw,

This call allows you to change the "rw" (readonly/read-write) flag on an already mounted filesystem at "mountpoint", converting a readonly filesystem to be read-write, or vice-versa.

Note that at the moment you must supply the "optional" "rw" parameter. In future we may allow other flags to be adjusted.

guestfs_remove_drive

 int
 guestfs_remove_drive (guestfs_h *g,

This function is conceptually the opposite of "guestfs_add_drive_opts". It removes the drive that was previously added with label "label".

Note that in order to remove drives, you have to add them with labels (see the optional "label" argument to "guestfs_add_drive_opts"). If you didn't use a label, then they cannot be removed.

You can call this function before or after launching the handle. If called after launch, if the backend supports it, we try to hot unplug the drive: see "HOTPLUGGING". The disk must not be in use (eg. mounted) when you do this. We try to detect if the disk is in use and stop you from doing this.

The "specfile" parameter controls the policy spec file used. You have to parse "/etc/selinux/config" to find the correct SELinux policy and then pass the spec file, usually: "/etc/selinux/" + selinuxtype + "/contexts/files/file_contexts".

The required "path" parameter is the top level directory where relabelling starts. Normally you should pass "path" as "/" to relabel the whole guest filesystem.

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

If the direct appliance mode flag is enabled, then stdin and stdout are passed directly through to the appliance once it is launched.

One consequence of this is that log messages aren't caught by the library and handled by "guestfs_set_log_message_callback", but go straight to stdout.

This function is deprecated. In new code, use the "guestfs_set_uuid" call instead.

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

This sets the ext2/3/4 filesystem UUID of the filesystem on "device" to "uuid". The format of the UUID and alternatives such as "clear", "random" and "time" are described in the tune2fs(8) manpage.

guestfs_set_hv

 int
 guestfs_set_hv (guestfs_h *g,
                 const char *hv);

Set the hypervisor binary that we will use. The hypervisor depends on the backend, but is usually the location of the qemu/KVM hypervisor. For the uml backend, it is the location of the "linux" or "vmlinux" binary.

The default is chosen when the library was compiled by the configure script.

You can also override this by setting the "LIBGUESTFS_HV" environment variable.

Note that you should call this function as early as possible after creating the handle. This is because some pre-launch operations depend on testing qemu features (by running "qemu -help"). If the qemu binary changes, we don't retest features, and so you might see inconsistent results. Using the environment variable "LIBGUESTFS_HV" is safest of all since that picks the qemu binary at the same time as the handle is created.

guestfs_set_identifier

 int
 guestfs_set_identifier (guestfs_h *g,

This is an informative string which the caller may optionally set in the handle. It is printed in various places, allowing the current handle to be identified in debugging output.

One important place is when tracing is enabled. If the identifier string is not an empty string, then trace messages change from this:

 libguestfs: trace: get_tmpdir
 libguestfs: trace: get_tmpdir = "/tmp"

to this:

 libguestfs: trace: ID: get_tmpdir
 libguestfs: trace: ID: get_tmpdir = "/tmp"

where "ID" is the identifier string set by this call.

The identifier must only contain alphanumeric ASCII characters, underscore and minus sign. The default is the empty string.

Labels are limited to 16 bytes.
Labels are limited to 128 unicode characters.

The practical upshot of this is that signals like "SIGINT" (from users pressing "^C") won't be received by the child process.

The default for this flag is false, because usually you want "^C" to kill the subprocess. Guestfish sets this flag to true when used interactively, so that "^C" can cancel long-running commands gracefully (see "guestfs_user_cancel").

guestfs_set_qemu

This function is deprecated. In new code, use the "guestfs_set_hv" call instead.

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

Set the hypervisor binary (usually qemu) that we will use.

The default is chosen when the library was compiled by the configure script.

You can also override this by setting the "LIBGUESTFS_HV" environment variable.

Setting "hv" to "NULL" restores the default qemu binary.

Note that you should call this function as early as possible after creating the handle. This is because some pre-launch operations depend on testing qemu features (by running "qemu -help"). If the qemu binary changes, we don't retest features, and so you might see inconsistent results.

If this is called with the parameter "false" then "guestfs_launch" does not create a recovery process. The purpose of the recovery process is to stop runaway hypervisor processes in the case where the main program aborts abruptly.

This only has any effect if called before "guestfs_launch", and the default is true.

About the only time when you would want to disable this is if the main process will fork itself into the background ("daemonize" itself). In this case the recovery process thinks that the main program has disappeared and so kills the hypervisor, which is not very helpful.

この関数は推奨されません。 新しいコードでは、代わりに "guestfs_part_add" を使用してください。

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

This is a direct interface to the sfdisk(8) program for creating partitions on block devices.

"device" should be a block device, for example /dev/sda.

"cyls", "heads" and "sectors" are the number of cylinders, heads and sectors on the device, which are passed directly to sfdisk as the -C, -H and -S parameters. If you pass 0 for any of these, then the corresponding parameter is omitted. Usually for ‘large’ disks, you can just pass 0 for these, but for small (floppy-sized) disks, sfdisk (or rather, the kernel) cannot work out the right geometry and you will need to tell it.

"lines" is a list of lines that we feed to "sfdisk". For more information refer to the sfdisk(8) manpage.

To create a single partition occupying the whole disk, you would pass "lines" as a single element list, when the single element being the string "," (comma).

The "strings" command has, in the past, had problems with parsing untrusted files. These are mitigated in the current version of libguestfs, but see "CVE-2014-8484".

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings (like environ(3)), or NULL if there was an error. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

Because of the message protocol, there is a transfer limit of somewhere between 2MB and 4MB. See "PROTOCOL LIMITS".

This is like the "guestfs_strings" command, but allows you to specify the encoding of strings that are looked for in the source file "path".

許可されるエンコードは次のとおりです:

ASCII および ISO-8859-X の ASCII (これは "guestfs_strings" が使用するものです) のような単一の 7 ビットのバイト文字。
単一の 8 ビットのバイト文字。
UTF-16BE や UCS-2BE でエンコードされたもののように 16 ビットのビッグエンディアン文字列。

This command enables the libguestfs appliance to use the swap device or partition named "device". The increased memory is made available for all commands, for example those run using "guestfs_command" or "guestfs_sh".

Note that you should not swap to existing guest swap partitions unless you know what you are doing. They may contain hibernation information, or other information that the guest doesn't want you to trash. You also risk leaking information about the host to the guest this way. Instead, attach a new host device to the guest and swap on that.

 GUESTFS_SYSLINUX_DIRECTORY, const char *directory,

Install the SYSLINUX bootloader on "device".

The device parameter must be either a whole disk formatted as a FAT filesystem, or a partition formatted as a FAT filesystem. In the latter case, the partition should be marked as "active" ("guestfs_part_set_bootable") and a Master Boot Record must be installed (eg. using "guestfs_pwrite_device") on the first sector of the whole disk. The SYSLINUX package comes with some suitable Master Boot Records. See the syslinux(1) man page for further information.

オプション引数は次のとおりです:

Install SYSLINUX in the named subdirectory, instead of in the root directory of the FAT filesystem.

Additional configuration can be supplied to SYSLINUX by placing a file called syslinux.cfg on the FAT filesystem, either in the root directory, or under directory if that optional argument is being used. For further information about the contents of this file, see syslinux(1).

This call allows you to adjust various filesystem parameters of an ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem called "device".

オプションのパラメーターは次のとおりです:

"force"
Force tune2fs to complete the operation even in the face of errors. This is the same as the tune2fs "-f" option.
"maxmountcount"
Set the number of mounts after which the filesystem is checked by e2fsck(8). If this is 0 then the number of mounts is disregarded. This is the same as the tune2fs "-c" option.
"mountcount"
Set the number of times the filesystem has been mounted. This is the same as the tune2fs "-C" option.
"errorbehavior"
Change the behavior of the kernel code when errors are detected. Possible values currently are: "continue", "remount-ro", "panic". In practice these options don't really make any difference, particularly for write errors.

これは tune2fs "-e" オプションと同じです。

"group"
Set the group which can use reserved filesystem blocks. This is the same as the tune2fs "-g" option except that it can only be specified as a number.
"intervalbetweenchecks"
Adjust the maximal time between two filesystem checks (in seconds). If the option is passed as 0 then time-dependent checking is disabled.

これは tune2fs "-i" オプションと同じです。

"reservedblockspercentage"
Set the percentage of the filesystem which may only be allocated by privileged processes. This is the same as the tune2fs "-m" option.
"lastmounteddirectory"
最後にマウントされたディレクトリーを設定します。これは tune2fs "-M" オプションと同じです。
"reservedblockscount" Set the number of reserved filesystem blocks. This is the same as the tune2fs "-r" option.
"user"
Set the user who can use the reserved filesystem blocks. This is the same as the tune2fs "-u" option except that it can only be specified as a number.

To get the current values of filesystem parameters, see "guestfs_tune2fs_l". For precise details of how tune2fs works, see the tune2fs(8) man page.

It is the same as running "tune2fs -l device". See tune2fs(8) manpage for more details. The list of fields returned isn't clearly defined, and depends on both the version of "tune2fs" that libguestfs was built against, and the filesystem itself.

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings, or NULL if there was an error. The array of strings will always have length "2n+1", where "n" keys and values alternate, followed by the trailing NULL entry. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

Typical umask values would be 022 which creates new files with permissions like "-rw-r--r--" or "-rwxr-xr-x", and 002 which creates new files with permissions like "-rw-rw-r--" or "-rwxrwxr-x".

The default umask is 022. This is important because it means that directories and device nodes will be created with 0644 or 0755 mode even if you specify 0777.

                        int64_t offset);

Upload local file filename to remotefilename on the filesystem.

remotefilename is overwritten starting at the byte "offset" specified. The intention is to overwrite parts of existing files or devices, although if a non-existent file is specified then it is created with a "hole" before "offset". The size of the data written is implicit in the size of the source filename.

Note that there is no limit on the amount of data that can be uploaded with this call, unlike with "guestfs_pwrite", and this call always writes the full amount unless an error occurs.

guestfs_user_cancel

 int
 guestfs_user_cancel (guestfs_h *g);

This function cancels the current upload or download operation.

Unlike most other libguestfs calls, this function is signal safe and thread safe. You can call it from a signal handler or from another thread, without needing to do any locking.

The transfer that was in progress (if there is one) will stop shortly afterwards, and will return an error. The errno (see "guestfs_last_errno") is set to "EINTR", so you can test for this to find out if the operation was cancelled or failed because of another error.

No cleanup is performed: for example, if a file was being uploaded then after cancellation there may be a partially uploaded file. It is the caller’s responsibility to clean up if necessary.

There are two common places that you might call "guestfs_user_cancel":

In an interactive text-based program, you might call it from a "SIGINT" signal handler so that pressing "^C" cancels the current operation. (You also need to call "guestfs_set_pgroup" so that child processes don't receive the "^C" signal).

In a graphical program, when the main thread is displaying a progress bar with a cancel button, wire up the cancel button to call this function.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

                  int64_t mtsecs,
                  int64_t mtnsecs);

このコマンドはファイルのタイムスタンプをナノ秒単位で設定します。

"atsecs, atnsecs" are the last access time (atime) in secs and nanoseconds from the epoch.

"mtsecs, mtnsecs" are the last modification time (mtime) in secs and nanoseconds from the epoch.

If the *nsecs field contains the special value "-1" then the corresponding timestamp is set to the current time. (The *secs field is ignored in this case).

If the *nsecs field contains the special value "-2" then the corresponding timestamp is left unchanged. (The *secs field is ignored in this case).

guestfs_version

 struct guestfs_version *
 guestfs_version (guestfs_h *g);

プログラムがリンクしている libguestfs バージョン番号を返します。

Note that because of dynamic linking this is not necessarily the version of libguestfs that you compiled against. You can compile the program, and then at runtime dynamically link against a completely different libguestfs.so library.

This call was added in version 1.0.58. In previous versions of libguestfs there was no way to get the version number. From C code you can use dynamic linker functions to find out if this symbol exists (if it doesn't, then it’s an earlier version).

The call returns a structure with four elements. The first three ("major", "minor" and "release") are numbers and correspond to the usual version triplet. The fourth element ("extra") is a string and is normally empty, but may be used for distro-specific information.

To construct the original version string: "$major.$minor.$release$extra"

関連項目: "LIBGUESTFS VERSION NUMBERS"

Note: Don't use this call to test for availability of features. In enterprise distributions we backport features from later versions into earlier versions, making this an unreliable way to test for features. Use "guestfs_available" or "guestfs_feature_available" instead.

This function returns a "struct guestfs_version *", or NULL if there was an error. The caller must call "guestfs_free_version" after use.

破損または破壊された "device" の XFS ファイルシステムを修復します。

The filesystem is specified using the "device" argument which should be the device name of the disk partition or volume containing the filesystem. If given the name of a block device, "xfs_repair" will attempt to find the raw device associated with the specified block device and will use the raw device instead.

Regardless, the filesystem to be repaired must be unmounted, otherwise, the resulting filesystem may be inconsistent or corrupt.

The returned status indicates whether filesystem corruption was detected (returns 1) or was not detected (returns 0).

この関数はエラーのとき -1 を返します。

This function depends on the feature "xfs". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

guestfs_yara_destroy

 int
 guestfs_yara_destroy (guestfs_h *g);

Destroy previously loaded Yara rules in order to free libguestfs resources.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

This function depends on the feature "libyara". See also "guestfs_feature_available".

(Added in 1.37.13)

guestfs_yara_load

 int
 guestfs_yara_load (guestfs_h *g,
                    const char *filename);

Upload a set of Yara rules from local file filename.

Yara rules allow to categorize files based on textual or binary patterns within their content. See "guestfs_yara_scan" to see how to scan files with the loaded rules.

Rules can be in binary format, as when compiled with yarac command, or in source code format. In the latter case, the rules will be first compiled and then loaded.

Rules in source code format cannot include external files. In such cases, it is recommended to compile them first.

Previously loaded rules will be destroyed.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

This long-running command can generate progress notification messages so that the caller can display a progress bar or indicator. To receive these messages, the caller must register a progress event callback. See "GUESTFS_EVENT_PROGRESS".

guestfs_yara_scan

 struct guestfs_yara_detection_list *
 guestfs_yara_scan (guestfs_h *g,
                    const char *path);

Scan a file with the previously loaded Yara rules.

For each matching rule, a "yara_detection" structure is returned.

The "yara_detection" structure contains the following fields.

"yara_name"
Path of the file matching a Yara rule.
"yara_rule"
Identifier of the Yara rule which matched against the given file.

This function returns a "struct guestfs_yara_detection_list *", or NULL if there was an error. The caller must call "guestfs_free_yara_detection_list" after use.

This long-running command can generate progress notification messages so that the caller can display a progress bar or indicator. To receive these messages, the caller must register a progress event callback. See "GUESTFS_EVENT_PROGRESS".

この関数は推奨されません。 新しいコードでは、代わりに "guestfs_grep" を使用してください。

Deprecated functions will not be removed from the API, but the fact that they are deprecated indicates that there are problems with correct use of these functions.

これは外部の "zegrep" プログラムを呼び出し、一致する行を返します。

This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings (like environ(3)), or NULL if there was an error. The caller must free the strings and the array after use.

Because of the message protocol, there is a transfer limit of somewhere between 2MB and 4MB. See "PROTOCOL LIMITS".

guestfs_zero

 int
 guestfs_zero (guestfs_h *g,
               const char *device);

This command writes zeroes over the first few blocks of "device".

How many blocks are zeroed isn't specified (but it’s not enough to securely wipe the device). It should be sufficient to remove any partition tables, filesystem superblocks and so on.

ブロックデバイスがすでに 0 ならば、このコマンドは 0 を書き込みません。これは、下にあるブロックデバイスが不必要に非スパース化されたり大きくなったりすることを避けるためです。

関連項目: "guestfs_zero_device", "guestfs_scrub_device", "guestfs_is_zero_device"

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

guestfs_zero_device

 int
 guestfs_zero_device (guestfs_h *g,
                      const char *device);

This command writes zeroes over the entire "device". Compare with "guestfs_zero" which just zeroes the first few blocks of a device.

ブロックデバイスがすでに 0 ならば、このコマンドは 0 を書き込みません。これは、下にあるブロックデバイスが不必要に非スパース化されたり大きくなったりすることを避けるためです。

Zero the free space in the filesystem mounted on directory. The filesystem must be mounted read-write.

ファイルシステムの内容は影響を受けません。しかし、ファイルシステムにある空き領域はすべて開放されます。

Free space is not "trimmed". You may want to call "guestfs_fstrim" either as an alternative to this, or after calling this, depending on your requirements.

この関数は、成功のとき 0 を、エラーのとき -1 を返します。

guestfs_zerofree

 int
 guestfs_zerofree (guestfs_h *g,
                   const char *device);

This runs the zerofree program on "device". This program claims to zero unused inodes and disk blocks on an ext2/3 filesystem, thus making it possible to compress the filesystem more effectively.

You should not run this program if the filesystem is mounted.

It is possible that using this program can damage the filesystem or data on the filesystem.

利用可能なファイルシステム

The "guestfs_filesystem_available" call tests whether a filesystem type is supported by the appliance kernel.

This is mainly useful as a negative test. If this returns true, it doesn't mean that a particular filesystem can be mounted, since filesystems can fail for other reasons such as it being a later version of the filesystem, or having incompatible features.

guestfish がサポートするコマンド

In guestfish(3) there is a handy interactive command "supported" which prints out the available groups and whether they are supported by this build of libguestfs. Note however that you have to do "run" first.

SINGLE CALLS AT COMPILE TIME

バージョン 1.5.8 から "<guestfs.h>" に定義されたシンボルの C API 関数があります。次のようなものがあります:

 #define GUESTFS_HAVE_DD 1

"guestfs_dd" が利用可能な場合。

Before version 1.5.8, if you needed to test whether a single libguestfs function is available at compile time, we recommended using build tools such as autoconf or cmake. For example in autotools you could use:

 AC_CHECK_LIB([guestfs],[guestfs_create])
 AC_CHECK_FUNCS([guestfs_dd])

which would result in "HAVE_GUESTFS_DD" being either defined or not defined in your program.

SINGLE CALLS AT RUN TIME

この関数は推奨されません。 新しいコードでは、代わりに "part_list" を使用してください。

この関数は推奨されません。 新しいコードでは、代わりに "write" を使用してください。

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <stdlib.h>
 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <dlfcn.h>
 #include <guestfs.h>
 
 main ()
 {
 #ifdef GUESTFS_HAVE_DD
   void *dl;
   int has_function;
 
   /* guestfs_dd 関数が本当に利用可能かを確認します。 */
   dl = dlopen (NULL, RTLD_LAZY);
   if (!dl) {
     fprintf (stderr, "dlopen: %s\n", dlerror ());
     exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
   }
   has_function = dlsym (dl, "guestfs_dd") != NULL;
   dlclose (dl);
 
   if (!has_function)
     printf ("この libguestfs.so は guestfs_dd 関数がありません\n");
   else {
     printf ("この libguestfs.so は guestfs_dd 関数があります\n");
     /* Now it's safe to call
     guestfs_dd (g, "foo", "bar");
     */
   }
 #else
   printf ("guestfs_dd 関数がコンパイル時に見つかりませんでした\n");
 #endif
  }

You may think the above is an awful lot of hassle, and it is. There are other ways outside of the C linking system to ensure that this kind of incompatibility never arises, such as using package versioning:

 Requires: libguestfs >= 1.0.80

CALLS WITH OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS

A recent feature of the API is the introduction of calls which take optional arguments. In C these are declared 3 ways. The main way is as a call which takes variable arguments (ie. "..."), as in this example:

 int guestfs_add_drive_opts (guestfs_h *g, const char *filename, ...);

Call this with a list of optional arguments, terminated by "-1". So to call with no optional arguments specified:

 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename, -1);

単一の引数の場合:

 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "qcow2",
                         -1);

2つの引数の場合:

 guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename,
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "qcow2",
                         GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_READONLY, 1,
                         -1);

and so forth. Don’t forget the terminating "-1" otherwise Bad Things will happen!

USING va_list FOR OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS

この関数は推奨されません。 新しいコードでは、代わりに "guestfs_add_drive_opts" を使用してください。

 int guestfs_add_drive_opts_va (guestfs_h *g, const char *filename,
                                va_list args);

オプション引数の構築

The third variant is useful where you need to construct these calls. You pass in a structure where you fill in the optional fields. The structure has a bitmask as the first element which you must set to indicate which fields you have filled in. For our example function the structure and call are declared:

 struct guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv {
   uint64_t bitmask;
   int readonly;
   const char *format;
   /* ... */
 };
 int guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv (guestfs_h *g, const char *filename,
              const struct guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv *optargs);

次のように呼び出すことができます。

 struct guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv optargs = {
   .bitmask = GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_READONLY_BITMASK |
              GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT_BITMASK,
   .readonly = 1,
   .format = "qcow2"
 };
 
 guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv (g, filename, &optargs);

注:

  • The "_BITMASK" suffix on each option name when specifying the bitmask.
  • You do not need to fill in all fields of the structure.
  • There must be a one-to-one correspondence between fields of the structure that are filled in, and bits set in the bitmask.

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS IN OTHER LANGUAGES

In other languages, optional arguments are expressed in the way that is natural for that language. We refer you to the language-specific documentation for more details on that.

イベント

SETTING CALLBACKS TO HANDLE EVENTS

Note: This section documents the generic event mechanism introduced in libguestfs 1.10, which you should use in new code if possible. The old functions "guestfs_set_log_message_callback", "guestfs_set_subprocess_quit_callback", "guestfs_set_launch_done_callback", "guestfs_set_close_callback" and "guestfs_set_progress_callback" are no longer documented in this manual page. Because of the ABI guarantee, the old functions continue to work.

Handles generate events when certain things happen, such as log messages being generated, progress messages during long-running operations, or the handle being closed. The API calls described below let you register a callback to be called when events happen. You can register multiple callbacks (for the same, different or overlapping sets of events), and individually remove callbacks. If callbacks are not removed, then they remain in force until the handle is closed.

In the current implementation, events are only generated synchronously: that means that events (and hence callbacks) can only happen while you are in the middle of making another libguestfs call. The callback is called in the same thread.

Events may contain a payload, usually nothing (void), an array of 64 bit unsigned integers, or a message buffer. Payloads are discussed later on.

イベントのクラス

The callback function will be called while the handle is being closed (synchronously from "guestfs_close").

この関数は推奨されません。 新しいコードでは、代わりに "guestfs_fallocate64" を使用してください。

If no callback is registered: the handle is closed without any callback being invoked.

The callback function will be called when the child process quits, either asynchronously or if killed by "guestfs_kill_subprocess". (This corresponds to a transition from any state to the CONFIG state).

If no callback is registered: the event is ignored.

The callback function will be called when the child process becomes ready first time after it has been launched. (This corresponds to a transition from LAUNCHING to the READY state).

If no callback is registered: the event is ignored.

Some long-running operations can generate progress messages. If this callback is registered, then it will be called each time a progress message is generated (usually two seconds after the operation started, and three times per second thereafter until it completes, although the frequency may change in future versions).

The callback receives in the payload four unsigned 64 bit numbers which are (in order): "proc_nr", "serial", "position", "total".

The units of "total" are not defined, although for some operations "total" may relate in some way to the amount of data to be transferred (eg. in bytes or megabytes), and "position" may be the portion which has been transferred.

The only defined and stable parts of the API are:

  • The callback can display to the user some type of progress bar or indicator which shows the ratio of "position":"total".
  • 0 <= "position" <= "total"
  • If any progress notification is sent during a call, then a final progress notification is always sent when "position" = "total" (unless the call fails with an error).

    This is to simplify caller code, so callers can easily set the progress indicator to "100%" at the end of the operation, without requiring special code to detect this case.

  • For some calls we are unable to estimate the progress of the call, but we can still generate progress messages to indicate activity. This is known as "pulse mode", and is directly supported by certain progress bar implementations (eg. GtkProgressBar).

    For these calls, zero or more progress messages are generated with "position = 0" and "total = 1", followed by a final message with "position = total = 1".

    As noted above, if the call fails with an error then the final message may not be generated.

The callback also receives the procedure number ("proc_nr") and serial number ("serial") of the call. These are only useful for debugging protocol issues, and the callback can normally ignore them. The callback may want to print these numbers in error messages or debugging messages.

If no callback is registered: progress messages are discarded.

The callback function is called whenever a log message is generated by qemu, the appliance kernel, guestfsd (daemon), or utility programs.

If the verbose flag ("guestfs_set_verbose") is set before launch ("guestfs_launch") then additional debug messages are generated.

If no callback is registered: the messages are discarded unless the verbose flag is set in which case they are sent to stderr. You can override the printing of verbose messages to stderr by setting up a callback.

The callback function is called whenever a log message is generated by the library part of libguestfs.

If the verbose flag ("guestfs_set_verbose") is set then additional debug messages are generated.

If no callback is registered: the messages are discarded unless the verbose flag is set in which case they are sent to stderr. You can override the printing of verbose messages to stderr by setting up a callback.

The callback function is called whenever a warning message is generated by the library part of libguestfs.

If no callback is registered: the messages are printed to stderr. You can override the printing of warning messages to stderr by setting up a callback.

The callback function is called whenever a trace message is generated. This only applies if the trace flag ("guestfs_set_trace") is set.

If no callback is registered: the messages are sent to stderr. You can override the printing of trace messages to stderr by setting up a callback.

The callback function is called whenever a libguestfs function is entered.

The payload is a string which contains the name of the function that we are entering (not including "guestfs_" prefix).

Note that libguestfs functions can call themselves, so you may see many events from a single call. A few libguestfs functions do not generate this event.

If no callback is registered: the event is ignored.

For any API function that opens a libvirt connection, this event may be generated to indicate that libvirt demands authentication information. See "LIBVIRT AUTHENTICATION" below.

If no callback is registered: "virConnectAuthPtrDefault" is used (suitable for command-line programs only).

イベント API

guestfs_set_event_callback

 int guestfs_set_event_callback (guestfs_h *g,
                                 guestfs_event_callback cb,
                                 uint64_t event_bitmask,
                                 int flags,
                                 void *opaque);

This function registers a callback ("cb") for all event classes in the "event_bitmask".

For example, to register for all log message events, you could call this function with the bitmask "GUESTFS_EVENT_APPLIANCE|GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBRARY|GUESTFS_EVENT_WARNING". To register a single callback for all possible classes of events, use "GUESTFS_EVENT_ALL".

"flags" should always be passed as 0.

"opaque" is an opaque pointer which is passed to the callback. You can use it for any purpose.

The return value is the event handle (an integer) which you can use to delete the callback (see below).

If there is an error, this function returns "-1", and sets the error in the handle in the usual way (see "guestfs_last_error" etc.)

Callbacks remain in effect until they are deleted, or until the handle is closed.

In the case where multiple callbacks are registered for a particular event class, all of the callbacks are called. The order in which multiple callbacks are called is not defined.

guestfs_delete_event_callback

 void guestfs_delete_event_callback (guestfs_h *g, int event_handle);

Delete a callback that was previously registered. "event_handle" should be the integer that was returned by a previous call to "guestfs_set_event_callback" on the same handle.

guestfs_event_to_string

 char *guestfs_event_to_string (uint64_t event);

"event" is either a single event or a bitmask of events. This returns a string representation (useful for debugging or printing events).

A single event is returned as the name in lower case, eg. "close".

A bitmask of several events is returned as a comma-separated list, eg. "close,progress".

If zero is passed, then the empty string "" is returned.

On success this returns a string. On error it returns NULL and sets "errno".

The returned string must be freed by the caller.

guestfs_event_callback

 typedef void (*guestfs_event_callback) (
                  guestfs_h *g,
                  void *opaque,
                  uint64_t event,
                  int event_handle,
                  int flags,
                  const char *buf, size_t buf_len,
                  const uint64_t *array, size_t array_len);

This is the type of the event callback function that you have to provide.

The basic parameters are: the handle ("g"), the opaque user pointer ("opaque"), the event class (eg. "GUESTFS_EVENT_PROGRESS"), the event handle, and "flags" which in the current API you should ignore.

The remaining parameters contain the event payload (if any). Each event may contain a payload, which usually relates to the event class, but for future proofing your code should be written to handle any payload for any event class.

"buf" and "buf_len" contain a message buffer (if "buf_len == 0", then there is no message buffer). Note that this message buffer can contain arbitrary 8 bit data, including NUL bytes.

"array" and "array_len" is an array of 64 bit unsigned integers. At the moment this is only used for progress messages.

EXAMPLE: CAPTURING LOG MESSAGES

A working program demonstrating this can be found in examples/debug-logging.c in the source of libguestfs.

One motivation for the generic event API was to allow GUI programs to capture debug and other messages. In libguestfs ≤ 1.8 these were sent unconditionally to "stderr".

Events associated with log messages are: "GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBRARY", "GUESTFS_EVENT_APPLIANCE", "GUESTFS_EVENT_WARNING" and "GUESTFS_EVENT_TRACE". (Note that error messages are not events; you must capture error messages separately).

Programs have to set up a callback to capture the classes of events of interest:

 int eh =
   guestfs_set_event_callback
     (g, message_callback,
      GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBRARY | GUESTFS_EVENT_APPLIANCE |
      GUESTFS_EVENT_WARNING | GUESTFS_EVENT_TRACE,
      0, NULL) == -1)
 if (eh == -1) {
   // handle error in the usual way
 }

The callback can then direct messages to the appropriate place. In this example, messages are directed to syslog:

 static void
 message_callback (
         guestfs_h *g,
         void *opaque,
         uint64_t event,
         int event_handle,
         int flags,
         const char *buf, size_t buf_len,
         const uint64_t *array, size_t array_len)
 {
   const int priority = LOG_USER|LOG_INFO;
   if (buf_len > 0)
     syslog (priority, "event 0x%lx: %s", event, buf);
 }

libvirt 認証

Some libguestfs API calls can open libvirt connections. Currently the only ones are "guestfs_add_domain"; and "guestfs_launch" if the libvirt backend has been selected. Libvirt connections may require authentication, for example if they need to access a remote server or to access root services from non-root. Libvirt authentication happens via a callback mechanism, see http://libvirt.org/guide/html/Application_Development_Guide-Connections.html

You may provide libvirt authentication data by registering a callback for events of type "GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBVIRT_AUTH".

If no such event is registered, then libguestfs uses a libvirt function that provides command-line prompts ("virConnectAuthPtrDefault"). This is only suitable for command-line libguestfs programs.

To provide authentication, first call "guestfs_set_libvirt_supported_credentials" with the list of credentials your program knows how to provide. Second, register a callback for the "GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBVIRT_AUTH" event. The event handler will be called when libvirt is requesting authentication information.

In the event handler, call "guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credentials" to get a list of the credentials that libvirt is asking for. You then need to ask (eg. the user) for each credential, and call "guestfs_set_libvirt_requested_credential" with the answer. Note that for each credential, additional information may be available via the calls "guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_prompt", "guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_challenge" or "guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_defresult".

The example program below should make this clearer.

There is also a more substantial working example program supplied with the libguestfs sources, called libvirt-auth.c.

 main ()
 {
   guestfs_h *g;
   char *creds[] = { "authname", "passphrase", NULL };
   int r, eh;
 
   g = guestfs_create ();
   if (!g) exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
 
   /* プログラムがサポートするクレデンシャルを libvirt に伝える。 */
   r = guestfs_set_libvirt_supported_credentials (g, creds);
   if (r == -1)
     exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
 
   /* イベントハンドラーをセットアップする。 */
   eh = guestfs_set_event_callback (
       g, do_auth,
       GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBVIRT_AUTH, 0, NULL);
   if (eh == -1)
     exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
 
   /* An example of a call that may ask for credentials. */
   r = guestfs_add_domain (
       g, "dom",
       GUESTFS_ADD_DOMAIN_LIBVIRTURI, "qemu:///system",
       -1);
   if (r == -1)
     exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
 
   exit (EXIT_SUCCESS);
 }
 
 static void
 do_auth (guestfs_h *g,
          void *opaque,
          uint64_t event,
          int event_handle,
          int flags,
          const char *buf, size_t buf_len,
          const uint64_t *array, size_t array_len)
 {
   char **creds;
   size_t i;
   char *prompt;
   char *reply;
   size_t replylen;
   int r;
 
   // buf will be the libvirt URI.  buf_len may be ignored.
   printf ("Authentication required for libvirt conn '%s'\n",
           buf);
 
   // Ask libguestfs what credentials libvirt is demanding.
   creds = guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credentials (g);
   if (creds == NULL)
     exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
 
   // Now ask the user for answers.
   for (i = 0; creds[i] != NULL; ++i)
   {
     if (strcmp (creds[i], "authname") == 0 ||
         strcmp (creds[i], "passphrase") == 0)
     {
       prompt =
         guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_prompt (g, i);
       if (prompt && strcmp (prompt, "") != 0)
         printf ("%s: ", prompt);
       free (prompt);
 
       // Some code here to ask for the credential.
       // ...
       // Put the reply in 'reply', length 'replylen' (bytes).
 
      r = guestfs_set_libvirt_requested_credential (g, i,
          reply, replylen);
      if (r == -1)
        exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
     }
 
     free (creds[i]);
   }
 
   free (creds);
 }

CANCELLING LONG TRANSFERS

Some operations can be cancelled by the caller while they are in progress. Currently only operations that involve uploading or downloading data can be cancelled (technically: operations that have "FileIn" or "FileOut" parameters in the generator).

To cancel the transfer, call "guestfs_user_cancel". For more information, read the description of "guestfs_user_cancel".

プライベートデータ領域

You can attach named pieces of private data to the libguestfs handle, fetch them by name, and walk over them, for the lifetime of the handle. This is called the private data area and is only available from the C API.

データの名前付き部分を接続するには、以下の呼び出しを使用します:

 void guestfs_set_private (guestfs_h *g, const char *key, void *data);

"key" is the name to associate with this data, and "data" is an arbitrary pointer (which can be "NULL"). Any previous item with the same key is overwritten.

You can use any "key" string you want, but avoid keys beginning with an underscore character (libguestfs uses those for its own internal purposes, such as implementing language bindings). It is recommended that you prefix the key with some unique string to avoid collisions with other users.

ポインターを取り出すには、次を使用します:

 void *guestfs_get_private (guestfs_h *g, const char *key);

This function returns "NULL" if either no data is found associated with "key", or if the user previously set the "key"’s "data" pointer to "NULL".

Libguestfs does not try to look at or interpret the "data" pointer in any way. As far as libguestfs is concerned, it need not be a valid pointer at all. In particular, libguestfs does not try to free the data when the handle is closed. If the data must be freed, then the caller must either free it before calling "guestfs_close" or must set up a close callback to do it (see "GUESTFS_EVENT_CLOSE").

To walk over all entries, use these two functions:

 void *guestfs_first_private (guestfs_h *g, const char **key_rtn);
 void *guestfs_next_private (guestfs_h *g, const char **key_rtn);

"guestfs_first_private" returns the first key, pointer pair ("first" does not have any particular meaning -- keys are not returned in any defined order). A pointer to the key is returned in *key_rtn and the corresponding data pointer is returned from the function. "NULL" is returned if there are no keys stored in the handle.

"guestfs_next_private" returns the next key, pointer pair. The return value of this function is "NULL" if there are no further entries to return.

Notes about walking over entries:

  • You must not call "guestfs_set_private" while walking over the entries.
  • The handle maintains an internal iterator which is reset when you call "guestfs_first_private". This internal iterator is invalidated when you call "guestfs_set_private".
  • If you have set the data pointer associated with a key to "NULL", ie:

     guestfs_set_private (g, key, NULL);
        

    then that "key" is not returned when walking.

  • *key_rtn is only valid until the next call to "guestfs_first_private", "guestfs_next_private" or "guestfs_set_private".

The following example code shows how to print all keys and data pointers that are associated with the handle "g":

 const char *key;
 void *data = guestfs_first_private (g, &key);
 while (data != NULL)
   {
     printf ("key = %s, data = %p\n", key, data);
     data = guestfs_next_private (g, &key);
   }

More commonly you are only interested in keys that begin with an application-specific prefix "foo_". Modify the loop like so:

 const char *key;
 void *data = guestfs_first_private (g, &key);
 while (data != NULL)
   {
     if (strncmp (key, "foo_", strlen ("foo_")) == 0)
       printf ("key = %s, data = %p\n", key, data);
     data = guestfs_next_private (g, &key);
   }

If you need to modify keys while walking, then you have to jump back to the beginning of the loop. For example, to delete all keys prefixed with "foo_":

  const char *key;
  void *data;
 again:
  data = guestfs_first_private (g, &key);
  while (data != NULL)
    {
      if (strncmp (key, "foo_", strlen ("foo_")) == 0)
        {
          guestfs_set_private (g, key, NULL);
          /* note that 'key' pointer is now invalid, and so is
             the internal iterator */
          goto again;
        }
      data = guestfs_next_private (g, &key);
    }

Note that the above loop is guaranteed to terminate because the keys are being deleted, but other manipulations of keys within the loop might not terminate unless you also maintain an indication of which keys have been visited.

SYSTEMTAP

The libguestfs C library can be probed using systemtap or DTrace. This is true of any library, not just libguestfs. However libguestfs also contains static markers to help in probing internal operations.

You can list all the static markers by doing:

 stap -l 'process("/usr/lib*/libguestfs.so.0")
              .provider("guestfs").mark("*")'

Note: These static markers are not part of the stable API and may change in future versions.

SYSTEMTAP SCRIPT EXAMPLE

This script contains examples of displaying both the static markers and some ordinary C entry points:

 global last;
 
 function display_time () {
       now = gettimeofday_us ();
       delta = 0;
       if (last > 0)
             delta = now - last;
       last = now;
 
       printf ("%d (+%d):", now, delta);
 }
 
 probe begin {
       last = 0;
       printf ("ready\n");
 }
 
 /* Display all calls to static markers. */
 probe process("/usr/lib*/libguestfs.so.0")
           .provider("guestfs").mark("*") ? {
       display_time();
       printf ("\t%s %s\n", $$name, $$parms);
 }
 
 /* guestfs_mkfs* 関数へのすべての呼び出しを一覧表示します。 */
 probe process("/usr/lib*/libguestfs.so.0")
           .function("guestfs_mkfs*") ? {
       display_time();
       printf ("\t%s %s\n", probefunc(), $$parms);
 }

The script above can be saved to test.stap and run using the stap(1) program. Note that you either have to be root, or you have to add yourself to several special stap groups. Consult the systemtap documentation for more information.

LIBGUESTFS VERSION NUMBERS

Since April 2010, libguestfs has started to make separate development and stable releases, along with corresponding branches in our git repository. These separate releases can be identified by version number:

                 偶数は安定版: 1.2.x, 1.4.x, ...
       .-------- 奇数は開発版: 1.3.x, 1.5.x, ...
       |
       v
 1  .  3  .  5
 ^           ^
 |           |
 |           `-------- サブバージョン
 |
 `------ ABI を変更しないので、必ず '1' です

このように "1.3.5" は開発ブランチ "1.3" の 5 番目のアップデートです。

As time passes we cherry pick fixes from the development branch and backport those into the stable branch, the effect being that the stable branch should get more stable and less buggy over time. So the stable releases are ideal for people who don't need new features but would just like the software to work.

バックポートする変更に対する私たちの基準は次のとおりです:

  • Documentation changes which don’t affect any code are backported unless the documentation refers to a future feature which is not in stable.
  • 議論の余地がなく、明らかな問題を修正する、十分にテストされたバグ修正はバックポートされます。
  • Simple rearrangements of code which shouldn't affect how it works get backported. This is so that the code in the two branches doesn't get too far out of step, allowing us to backport future fixes more easily.
  • We don’t backport new features, new APIs, new tools etc, except in one exceptional case: the new feature is required in order to implement an important bug fix.

A new stable branch starts when we think the new features in development are substantial and compelling enough over the current stable branch to warrant it. When that happens we create new stable and development versions 1.N.0 and 1.(N+1).0 [N is even]. The new dot-oh release won't necessarily be so stable at this point, but by backporting fixes from development, that branch will stabilize over time.

制限

プロトコル制限

Internally libguestfs uses a message-based protocol to pass API calls and their responses to and from a small "appliance" (see guestfs-internals(1) for plenty more detail about this). The maximum message size used by the protocol is slightly less than 4 MB. For some API calls you may need to be aware of this limit. The API calls which may be affected are individually documented, with a link back to this section of the documentation.

In libguestfs < 1.19.32, several calls had to encode either their entire argument list or their entire return value (or sometimes both) in a single protocol message, and this gave them an arbitrary limitation on how much data they could handle. For example, "guestfs_cat" could only download a file if it was less than around 4 MB in size. In later versions of libguestfs, some of these limits have been removed. The APIs which were previously limited but are now unlimited (except perhaps by available memory) are listed below. To find out if a specific API is subject to protocol limits, check for the warning in the API documentation which links to this section, and remember to check the version of the documentation that matches the version of libguestfs you are using.

"guestfs_cat", "guestfs_find", "guestfs_read_file", "guestfs_read_lines", "guestfs_write", "guestfs_write_append", "guestfs_lstatlist", "guestfs_lxattrlist", "guestfs_readlinklist", "guestfs_ls".

See also "UPLOADING" and "DOWNLOADING" for further information about copying large amounts of data into or out of a filesystem.

ディスクの最大数

In libguestfs ≥ 1.19.7, you can query the maximum number of disks that may be added by calling "guestfs_max_disks". In earlier versions of libguestfs (ie. where this call is not available) you should assume the maximum is 25.

The rest of this section covers implementation details, which could change in future.

virtio-scsi ディスク (QEMU において利用可能ならば初期値) を使用しているとき、現在の制限は 255 個のディスクです。virtio-blk (古い初期値) を使用しているとき、約 27 個のディスクです。しかし、実装の詳細やネットワークが有効化されているかどうかにより、変化する可能性があります。

libguestfs により使用される virtio-scsi はディスクあたり一つのターゲットを使用するよう設定されます。256 個のターゲットが利用可能です。

virtio-blk はディスクあたり 1 仮想 PCI を消費します。PCI は 31 スロットに制限されます。これらのいくつかは他の目的のために使用されます。

一つの仮想ディスクが libguestfs により内部的に使用されます。

Before libguestfs 1.19.7, disk names had to be a single character (eg. /dev/sda through /dev/sdz), and since one disk is reserved, that meant the limit was 25. This has been fixed in more recent versions.

libguestfs ≥ 1.20 はディスクの活性挿入をできます。 "HOTPLUGGING" 参照。

ディスクあたりの最大パーティション数

virtio はディスクあたりの最大パーティション数を 15 に制限します。

This is because it reserves 4 bits for the minor device number (thus /dev/vda, and /dev/vda1 through /dev/vda15).

15 よりも多くのパーティションを持つディスクを接続すると、追加のパーティションは libguestfs により無視されます。

ディスクの最大容量

制限はおそらく 2**63-1 から 2**64-1 バイトの間です。

We have tested block devices up to 1 exabyte (2**60 or 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 bytes) using sparse files backed by an XFS host filesystem.

Although libguestfs probably does not impose any limit, the underlying host storage will. If you store disk images on a host ext4 filesystem, then the maximum size will be limited by the maximum ext4 file size (currently 16 TB). If you store disk images as host logical volumes then you are limited by the maximum size of an LV.

For the hugest disk image files, we recommend using XFS on the host for storage.

パーティションの最大容量

The MBR (ie. classic MS-DOS) partitioning scheme uses 32 bit sector numbers. Assuming a 512 byte sector size, this means that MBR cannot address a partition located beyond 2 TB on the disk.

It is recommended that you use GPT partitions on disks which are larger than this size. GPT uses 64 bit sector numbers and so can address partitions which are theoretically larger than the largest disk we could support.

ファイルシステム、ファイル、ディレクトリーの最大容量

This depends on the filesystem type. libguestfs itself does not impose any known limit. Consult Wikipedia or the filesystem documentation to find out what these limits are.

最大アップロード数およびダウンロード数

API 関数 "guestfs_upload", "guestfs_download", "guestfs_tar_in", "guestfs_tar_out" および類似のものは、アップロードとダウンロードの数量に制限がありません。

検査の制限

The inspection code has several arbitrary limits on things like the size of Windows Registry hive it will read, and the length of product name. These are intended to stop a malicious guest from consuming arbitrary amounts of memory and disk space on the host, and should not be reached in practice. See the source code for more information.

ADVANCED MACHINE READABLE OUTPUT

Some of the tools support a --machine-readable option, which is generally used to make the output more machine friendly, for easier parsing for example. By default, this output goes to stdout.

In addition to that, a subset of these tools support an extra string passed to the --machine-readable option: this string specifies where the machine-readable output will go.

The possible values are:

The output goes to the specified filename.
The output goes to stdout. This is basically the same as the default behaviour of --machine-readable with no parameter, although stdout as output is specified explicitly.
The output goes to stderr.

環境変数

仮想マシンのカーネルに追加のオプションを渡します。
This is the old way to set "LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND".
Choose the default way to create the appliance. See "guestfs_set_backend" and "BACKEND".
A colon-separated list of backend-specific settings. See "BACKEND", "BACKEND SETTINGS".
The location where libguestfs will cache its appliance, when using a supermin appliance. The appliance is cached and shared between all handles which have the same effective user ID.

If "LIBGUESTFS_CACHEDIR" is not set, then "TMPDIR" is used. If "TMPDIR" is not set, then /var/tmp is used.

See also "LIBGUESTFS_TMPDIR", "guestfs_set_cachedir".

Set "LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1" to enable verbose messages. This has the same effect as calling "guestfs_set_verbose (g, 1)".
Set the default hypervisor (usually qemu) binary that libguestfs uses. If not set, then the qemu which was found at compile time by the configure script is used.

上の "QEMU WRAPPERS" 参照。

Set the memory allocated to the qemu process, in megabytes. For example:

 LIBGUESTFS_MEMSIZE=700
    
Set the path that libguestfs uses to search for a supermin appliance. See the discussion of paths in section "PATH" above.
This is the old way to set "LIBGUESTFS_HV".
The location where libguestfs will store temporary files used by each handle.

If "LIBGUESTFS_TMPDIR" is not set, then "TMPDIR" is used. If "TMPDIR" is not set, then /tmp is used.

See also "LIBGUESTFS_CACHEDIR", "guestfs_set_tmpdir".

コマンドトレースを有効にするには "LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1" を設定します。これは "guestfs_set_trace (g, 1)" の呼び出しと同じ効果があります。
パス
Libguestfs may run some external programs, and relies on $PATH being set to a reasonable value. If using the libvirt backend, libvirt will not work at all unless $PATH contains the path of qemu/KVM. Note that PHP by default removes $PATH from the environment which tends to break everything.
These three environment variables allow the kernel that libguestfs uses in the appliance to be selected. If $SUPERMIN_KERNEL is not set, then the most recent host kernel is chosen. For more information about kernel selection, see supermin(1).
See "LIBGUESTFS_CACHEDIR", "LIBGUESTFS_TMPDIR".
This directory represents a user-specific directory for storing non-essential runtime files.

If it is set, then is used to store temporary sockets. Otherwise, /tmp is used.

See also "get-sockdir", http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/basedir-spec/.
