.SH "説明"
.IX Header "説明"
This manual page describes how to build libguestfs from source.
.PP
The main steps are:
.IP "\(bu" 4
Install the requirements.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Build, either from the git repository or from a tarball.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Run the tests.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Run the tools from the source directory, or install.
.SH "REQUIREMENTS"
.IX Header "REQUIREMENTS"
.SS "Short cut for Fedora or Red Hat Enterprise Linux (\s-1RHEL\s0) users"
.IX Subsection "Short cut for Fedora or Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) users"
On Fedora, use \fBdnf\fR\|(8) to install all the requirements:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& dnf builddep libguestfs
\& dnf install autoconf automake libtool gettext\-devel
.Ve
.PP
On systems still using \fByum\fR\|(8), do:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& yum\-builddep libguestfs
\& yum install autoconf automake libtool gettext\-devel
.Ve
.SS "Short cut for Debian or Ubuntu users"
.IX Subsection "Short cut for Debian or Ubuntu users"
Use \s-1APT\s0 to install all the requirements:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& apt\-get build\-dep libguestfs
\& apt\-get install autoconf automake libtool\-bin gettext
.Ve
.PP
If that command doesn't work, take a look at the Debian source package
http://packages.debian.org/source/libguestfs, at the list of
\&\f(CW\*(C`build\-depends\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`build\-depends\-indep\*(C'\fR, and install everything listed
there.
.SS "Full list of requirements"
.IX Subsection "Full list of requirements"
.IP "\fIappliance/packagelist.in\fR" 4
.IX Item "appliance/packagelist.in"
Install as many package names found in this file as possible.  (It is not
strictly required to install all of them).
.Sp
\&\fINote\fR: If you build libguestfs followed by installing appliance packages,
the build will not pick them up automatically, even if you do \f(CW\*(C`make clean\*(C'\fR.  You have to do this command to clean the old supermin appliance
and force a new one to be prepared:

below.
.IP "glibc" 4
.IX Item "glibc"
\&\fIRequired\fR.  We use the custom printf formatters extension of glibc (see
\&\*(L"\s-1DAEMON CUSTOM PRINTF FORMATTERS\*(R"\s0 in \fBguestfs\-hacking\fR\|(1)).
.IP "\s-1XDR\s0 (tirpc, glibc or other)" 4

\&\fIRequired\fR.  We use the \s-1XDR\s0 implementation from \f(CW\*(C`<rpc/xdr.h>\*(C'\fR,
which may come from glibc, tirpc or another library.
.Sp
The \f(CW\*(C`rpcgen\*(C'\fR tool is optional, except if you want to compile from git
and/or patch libguestfs with new APIs.
.IP "Gcc or Clang" 4
.IX Item "Gcc or Clang"
\&\fIRequired\fR.  We use \f(CW\*(C`_\|_attribute_\|_((cleanup))\*(C'\fR which is a \s-1GCC\s0 extension
also supported by Clang.
.IP "Perl" 4

.SH "THE ./run SCRIPT"
.IX Header "THE ./run SCRIPT"
You can run \fBguestfish\fR\|(1), \fBguestmount\fR\|(1) and the virt tools without
needing to install them by using the \fI./run\fR script in the top directory.
This script works by setting several environment variables.
.PP
例:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& ./run guestfish [usual guestfish args ...]
\&
\& ./run virt\-inspector [usual virt\-inspector args ...]
.Ve
.PP
The \fI./run\fR script adds every libguestfs binary to the \f(CW$PATH\fR, so the
above examples run guestfish and virt-inspector from the build directory
(not the globally installed guestfish if there is one).
.PP
You can use the script from any directory.  If you wanted to run your own
libguestfs-using program, then the following command will also work:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& /path/to/libguestfs/run ./my_program [...]
.Ve
.PP
You can also run the C programs under valgrind like this:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& ./run valgrind [valgrind opts...] virt\-cat [virt\-cat opts...]
.Ve
.PP
or under gdb:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& ./run gdb \-\-args virt\-cat [virt\-cat opts...]
.Ve
.PP
This also works with sudo (eg. if you need root access for libvirt or to
access a block device):
.PP
.Vb 1
\& sudo ./run virt\-cat \-d LinuxGuest /etc/passwd
.Ve
.PP
To set environment variables, you can either do:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& LIBGUESTFS_HV=/my/qemu ./run guestfish
.Ve
.PP

.PP
.Vb 1
\& ./run env LIBGUESTFS_HV=/my/qemu guestfish

.SH "\fIlocal*\fP FILES"
.IX Header "local* FILES"
Files in the top source directory that begin with the prefix \fIlocal*\fR are
ignored by git.  These files can contain local configuration or scripts that
you need to build libguestfs.
.PP
I have a file called \fIlocalconfigure\fR which is a simple wrapper around
\&\fIautogen.sh\fR containing local configure customizations that I need.  It
looks like this:
.PP
.Vb 5
\& . localenv
\& ./autogen.sh \e
\&     \-C \e
\&     \-\-enable\-werror \e
\&     "$@"
.Ve

.PP
.Vb 1
\& ./localconfigure && make
.Ve
.PP
If there is a file in the top build directory called \fIlocalenv\fR, then it
will be sourced by \f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR.  This file can contain any local environment

which means libguestfs runs qemu directly.
.Sp
Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (\s-1RHEL\s0) ≥ 7 use this flag to change
the default backend to \f(CW\*(C`libvirt\*(C'\fR, because (especially in \s-1RHEL\s0)  the policy
is not to allow any program to run qemu except via libvirt.
.Sp
Note that despite this setting, all backends are built into libguestfs, and

Different versions of qemu have problems booting the appliance for different

.IX Header "USING A PREBUILT BINARY APPLIANCE"
To understand what the libguestfs appliance means, see
\&\fBguestfs\-internals\fR\|(1).
.PP
If you are using non-Linux, or a Linux distribution that does not have
\&\fBsupermin\fR\|(1) support, or simply if you don't want to build your own
libguestfs appliance, then you can use one of the prebuilt binary appliances
that we supply: http://libguestfs.org/download/binaries/appliance
.PP
Build libguestfs like this:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& ./configure \-\-disable\-appliance \-\-disable\-daemon
\& make
.Ve
.PP
Set \f(CW$LIBGUESTFS_PATH\fR to the path where you unpacked the appliance
tarball, eg:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& export LIBGUESTFS_PATH=/usr/local/lib/guestfs/appliance
.Ve
.PP
and run the libguestfs programs and virt tools in the normal way, eg. using
the \fI./run\fR script (see above).
.SH "BUILDING PYTHON 2 AND PYTHON 3 BINDINGS"
.IX Header "BUILDING PYTHON 2 AND PYTHON 3 BINDINGS"
The \fI./configure\fR script detects the currently installed version of Python
using whatever program is called \f(CW\*(C`python\*(C'\fR in the current \f(CW$PATH\fR.
Libguestfs will build Python 2 or Python 3 bindings as appropriate.
.PP
You can override this behaviour by specifying an alternate Python binary,
eg:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 ./configure
.Ve
.PP
To build parallel Python 2 and Python 3 bindings, you will need to build
libguestfs twice.  The second time, you can disable all the other bindings
and tools and just build the Python bindings.  See the Fedora spec file (see
below) for a complete example of how to do this.
.SH "BUILDING A PACKAGE FOR FEDORA"
.IX Header "BUILDING A PACKAGE FOR FEDORA"
The Fedora spec file is stored under:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/libguestfs.git/
.PP
Libguestfs is built in Fedora using the ordinary Fedora build system (Koji).
.SH "BUILDING A PACKAGE FOR RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX"
.IX Header "BUILDING A PACKAGE FOR RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX"
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (\s-1RHEL\s0) builds of libguestfs are heavily patched.
There are broadly two types of patches we apply:
.IP "\(bu" 4
We disable many features that we do not wish to support for \s-1RHEL\s0 customers.
For example, the \*(L"libguestfs live\*(R" feature is disabled.
.IP "\(bu" 4
We backport upstream features.
.PP
The patches we apply to \s-1RHEL\s0 releases are available publically in the
upstream git repository, in a branch called \f(CW\*(C`rhel\-x.y\*(C'\fR
.PP
For example, the \s-1RHEL 7.3\s0 patches are available here:
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commits/rhel\-7.3
.PP
The sources and spec files for \s-1RHEL\s0 versions of libguestfs are available on
https://git.centos.org/project/rpms, and see also
https://wiki.centos.org/Sources.
.SH "BUILDING i686 32 BIT VIRT\-P2V"
.IX Header "BUILDING i686 32 BIT VIRT-P2V"
\&\fI(This section only applies on the x86\-64 architecture.)\fR
.PP
Building a 32 bit virt\-p2v (i686) binary improves compatibility with older
hardware.  See \fBvirt\-p2v\-make\-disk\fR\|(1) for details.  Although virt\-p2v is a
simple Gtk application, it is not especially easy to build just virt\-p2v as
a 32 bit application on a 64 bit host.  Usually the simplest way is to use a
32 bit chroot or even a 32 bit virtual machine to build libguestfs.
.PP
On Fedora you can use the \fBmock\fR\|(1) tool.  For example:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& fedpkg mockbuild \-\-root fedora\-23\-i386
.Ve
.PP
This will result in a \fIvirt\-v2v\-*.i686.rpm\fR file which can be unpacked to
extract the 32 bit virt\-p2v binary.
.PP
The binary may be compressed to either \fIp2v/virt\-p2v.i686.xz\fR, or
\&\fI\f(CI$libdir\fI/virt\-p2v/virt\-p2v.i686.xz\fR or
\&\fI\f(CI$VIRT_P2V_DATA_DIR\fI/virt\-p2v.i686.xz\fR as appropriate.  This enables the
\&\fBvirt\-p2v\-make\-disk\fR\|(1) \fI\-\-arch\fR option.
