QEMU Guest Agent diagnostics enhanced To maintain qemu-guest-agents compatibility with the latest version of VDSM, a number of features have been backported from the most recent upstream version. These include the addition of "qemu-get-host-name", "qemu-get-users", "qemu-get-osinfo", and "qemu-get-timezone" commands, which improve the diagnostic capabilities of QEMU Guest Agent.
In RHV 4.2 we rely on recent changes in QEMU-GA. To properly test and deliver the feature we need some of the features from 2.10. Would one of the following be possible? 1) perform rebase to 2.10 in RHEL 7.5; or 2) backport the necessary patches to 2.8. We need the following patches: 0a3d197a71 2017-04-04 | qga: Add 'guest-get-host-name' command 161a56a906 2017-04-19 | qga: Add 'guest-get-users' command 53c58e64d0 2017-04-19 | qga: Add `guest-get-timezone` command e674605f98 2017-07-17 | qemu-ga: check if utmpx.h is available on the system 9848f79740 2017-07-14 | qemu-ga: add guest-get-osinfo command optionaly also the following patches that fix the test-suite: c28afa76c0 2017-07-14 | test-qga: pass environemnt to qemu-ga 339ca68bef 2017-07-14 | test-qga: add test for guest-get-osinfo

Tomáš, You mentioned "qemu-ga: check if utmpx.h is available on the system" in comment0. Could you tell me how to check if utmpx.h is available on the system? I only find this 2 files on system. And they aren't from qemu-guest-agent package. Thanks. # find / -name utmpx* /usr/include/bits/utmpx.h /usr/include/utmpx.h
Hi, there is not much to verify there. The patch is there to make sure build does not fail. So if you already have an RPM then you can consider it as OK.
I suggest you remove the mention of utmpx.h from the doc_text.
Thanks Tomáš, Base on comment9 and comment11, set this bug as verified.
