[Users] qemu-ga /oVirt/ubuntu guest

[Sven Kieske]

Hi,

I know it's a little off topic, but
has anyone a good documentation for
the qemu-guest-agent ?
I'm aware of the following entry, but
it is not helpful at all:

http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/QAPI/GuestAgent

I'm looking for documentation on the following
topics:

install the guest-agent into a vm
architecture of the guest agent
building the guest-agent

I tried to build the whole qemu-thing
in a ubuntu 12.04. vm running on ovirt
but I'm not successfull.

I get the following error after invoking "make":

GEN trace/generated-tracers.c
CC hw/virtio/dataplane/vring.o
hw/virtio/dataplane/vring.c In function "vring_pop":
hw/virtio/dataplane/vring.c:400:5: error: "ret" may be used
uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make: *** [hw/virtio/dataplane/vring.o] Error 1

I would also like to know if you are aware of any prebuild packages
for ubuntu 12.04 (or later) or if there is documentation anywhere
on the net for which distributions you can download a rpm/deb package.

Thank you.
