[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 00/10] qemu-ga: fsfreeze on Windows using VSS

[Tomoki Sekiyama <tomoki.sekiyama@hds.com>]

Hi,

This is v8 of patch series to add fsfreeze for Windows qemu-guest-agent.

changes from v7:
 - Remove redundant re-assign to $cxx in configure (patch 01/10)
 - Add comment and cleanup check for ':' used in class definition (patch 03/10)
 - Fail installation if VSS provider is already installed (patch 07/10)
 - Disable VSS feature if 32bit agent runs on 64bit Windows (patch 08/10)

v7: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-07/msg02316.html


* Description
  In Windows, VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service) provides a facility to
  quiesce filesystems and applications before disk snapshots are taken.
  This patch series implements "fsfreeze" command of qemu-ga using VSS.


* How to build & run qemu-ga with VSS support

 - Download Microsoft VSS SDK from:
   http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23490

 - Setup the SDK
   scripts/extract-vsssdk-headers setup.exe (on POSIX-systems)

 - Specify installed SDK directory to configure option as:
   ./configure -with-vss-sdk="path/to/VSS SDK" --cross-prefix=i686-w64-mingw32-

 - make qemu-ga.exe qga/vss-win32/qga-vss.{dll,tlb}

 - Install qemu-ga.exe, qga/vss-win32/qga-vss.{dll,tlb}, and
   the other required mingw libraries into the same directory in guests

 - Run `qemu-ga.exe -s install' and `net start qemu-ga' in the guests

Any feedback are appreciated.
