Couple of points:
1) We require that after every single commit the code base compiles and
all tests pass. This is a non-negotiable requirement and it's because
when bisceting something, we want to be able to compile libvirt and
focus on the bug we're after. Not fight a broken build. The feature is
not required to be available from the very first commit. For large
series we often have patches that refactor something, prepare the code
base, then implement it in various areas of the code, and only as the
last commit the feature is turned on.
2) Be aware that logging code you're touching is also used for
/var/log/libvirt/qemu/$VM.log. After this series I'm seeing some weird
behavior:
# tail -n3 /var/log/libvirt/qemu/fedora.log
2024-02-29 14:48:33.785+000 2024-02-29 14:48:33.857+0000: 9562: debug :
virCommandHandshakeChild:431 : Handshake with parent is done
2024-02-29 14:48:33.857+000 char device redirected to /dev/pts/41 (label
charserial0)
2024-02-29 14:48:33.876+000
IOW, the timestamp is printed twice. Also, the log file ends with a
timestamp and no other message.
