Subject: [PULL v2 08/12] glib-compat: add g_unix_get_passwd_entry_qemu()
Date: Mon,  2 Nov 2020 19:11:30 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201103011134.887744-9-michael.roth@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201103011134.887744-1-michael.roth@amd.com>

From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com>

The glib function was introduced in 2.64. It's a safer version of
getpwnam, and also simpler to use than getpwnam_r.

Currently, it's only use by the next patch in qemu-ga, which doesn't
(well well...) need the thread safety guarantees. Since the fallback
version is still unsafe, I would rather keep the _qemu postfix, to make
sure it's not being misused by mistake. When/if necessary, we can
implement a safer fallback and drop the _qemu suffix.
