In some cases the caller of virPidFileRead might like extra checks to determine whether the pid just read is really the one they are expecting. This adds virPidFileReadIfAlive which will check whether the pid is still alive with kill(0, -1), and (on linux only) will look at /proc/$PID/path * libvirt_private.syms, util/virpidfile.c, util/virpidfile.h: Add virPidFileReadIfValid and virPidFileReadPathIfValid * network/bridge_driver.c: Use new APIs to check PID validity
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
