[GSoC][PATCH v4 6/8] qemu_domainjob: add `saveDomainStatus` as a callback function to jobs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function `qemuDomainObjSaveStatus` required an access to
`virQEMUDriverPtr`.
To make jobs hypervisor-agnostic we remove this funciton
and replace it with a callback function from `qemuDomainJob`

Removal of `virQEMUDriverPtr` as parameter resulted in
removal of the same from function, where it was pass.
All of such references were removed as the variable
was no longer required.
