I'd like to get some comments on the following...
We would like to use libvirt to store some properties related to a
domain. This can be done by adding a simple get/set API as follows:
/*
* Domain property get/set interfaces
*
* For GetProp, the return value must be freed by the caller.
*/
char * virDomainGetProp (virDomainPtr domain,
const char *propName);
int virDomainSetProp (virDomainPtr domain,
const char *propName,
const char *value);
Sample command-line usage:
virsh # setprop solaris-pv-0 foo bar
virsh # setprop solaris-pv-0 blah 3
virsh # getprop solaris-pv-0 foo
foo: bar
The XML would look something like this:
virsh # dumpxml solaris-pv-0
<domain type='xen' id='-1'>
[ snip ]
<properties>
<blah value="3"/>
<foo value="bar"/>
</properties>
</domain>
Looking at the Xen code, I'll need to do a bit of work on that API
before I can implement this. I don't know how well this will fit into
the other hypervisors that Libvirt supports, so I'll leave those
implementations up to someone else :)
Any thoughts?
