There are other checks in configure.ac that look for HAL, but they are not neccessarily enabled based on the same flags. But see my comments later about whether we should just avoid HAL.... > diff --git a/src/Makefile.am b/src/Makefile.am > index 3a798d2..f1dd789 100644 > --- a/src/Makefile.am > +++ b/src/Makefile.am > @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ INCLUDES = \ > $(XEN_CFLAGS) \ > $(SELINUX_CFLAGS) \ > $(DRIVER_MODULE_CFLAGS) \ > + $(POLKIT_CFLAGS) \ This isn't related to HAL or SCSI drivers. > +/** > + * virStorageBackendSCSIRefreshPool: > + * > + * Query HAL for all storage devices associated with a specific > + * SCSI HBA. > + * > + * XXX, currently we only support regular devices in /dev/, > + * or /dev/disk/by-XXX.

We still have a whole bunch of code in the virStorageBackendSCSIAddLUN() which is called per device we find, that pokes around in sysfs to get out more metadata. We also have similar, but different code in the iSCSI code that pokes around in sysfs. Further more HAL is deprecated for dealing with storage devices in Fedora 10 and later, with DeviceKit targetted to take over its role. It is a bit of a mess really. I'm inclined to say thta we should not use HAL for this SCSI stuff at all, and instead we should slightly generalize our existing iSCSI method virStorageBackendISCSIFindLUNs() so that it works for both the SCSI and iSCSI storage pools, letting us share the code. > + char hostdevice[PATH_MAX]; > + LibHalContext *ctx = NULL; > + DBusConnection *sysbus = NULL; > + DBusError derr = DBUS_ERROR_INIT; > + char **hbadevs = NULL, **blkdevs = NULL; > + int numhbadevs = 0, numblkdevs = 0; > + int i, ret = -1; > + > + /* Get the canonical sysfs path for the HBA device */ > + if (virStorageBackendSCSIMakeHostDevice(conn, pool, > + hostdevice, sizeof(hostdevice)) > < 0) > + goto cleanup; > + > + if ((ctx = libhal_ctx_new()) == NULL) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("failed to allocate HAL context")); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + sysbus = dbus_bus_get(DBUS_BUS_SYSTEM, &derr); > + if (sysbus == NULL) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("failed to get dbus system bus: '%s'"), > + derr.message); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + if (!libhal_ctx_set_dbus_connection(ctx, sysbus)) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("failed to set HAL dbus connection")); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + > + if (!libhal_ctx_init(ctx, &derr)) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("failed to initialize HAL context: '%s'"), > + derr.message); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + if ((hbadevs = libhal_manager_find_device_string_match(ctx, > + > "linux.sysfs_path", > + hostdevice, > + &numhbadevs, > + &derr)) == NULL) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("HAL failed to lookup device '%s': %s"), > + hostdevice, derr.message); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + if (numhbadevs != 1) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("unexpected number of HBA devices from HAL " > + "(expected 1, got %d) when looking up device > " > + "'%s'"), numhbadevs, hostdevice); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + if ((blkdevs = libhal_manager_find_device_string_match(ctx, > + "info.parent", > + hbadevs[0], > + &numblkdevs, > + &derr)) == NULL) { > + virStorageReportError(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, > + _("failed to lookup LUNs for %s with HAL: %s"), > + hbadevs[0], derr.message); > + goto cleanup; > + } > + > + for (i = 0 ; i < numblkdevs ; i++) > + virStorageBackendSCSIAddLUN(conn, > + pool, > + ctx, > + blkdevs[i]); > + > + ret = 0; > + > +cleanup: > + for (i = 0 ; hbadevs && i < numhbadevs ; i++) > + free(hbadevs[i]); > + free(hbadevs); > + for (i = 0 ; blkdevs && i < numblkdevs ; i++) > + free(blkdevs[i]); > + free(blkdevs); > + libhal_ctx_shutdown(ctx, NULL); > + libhal_ctx_free(ctx); > + if (sysbus) > + dbus_connection_unref(sysbus); > + if (dbus_error_is_set(&derr)) > + dbus_error_free(&derr); > + return ret; > +} > + > + > + > +virStorageBackend virStorageBackendSCSI = { > + .type = VIR_STORAGE_POOL_SCSI, > + .refreshPool = virStorageBackendSCSIRefreshPool, > +}; > + > +/* > + * vim: set tabstop=4: > + * vim: set shiftwidth=4: > + * vim: set expandtab: > + */ > +/* > + * Local variables: > + * indent-tabs-mode: nil > + * c-indent-level: 4 > + * c-basic-offset: 4 > + * tab-width: 4 > + * End: > + */ We've since decided against adding these editor footers. The virStorageBackendISCSIFindLUNs() method currently takes an iSCSI session name and uses that to find the host:bus:target prefix for the virtual iSCSI HBA, then scans for LUNS with that prefix. If we split this into 2 methods, the first virStorageBackendISCSIFindLUNsForSession() Just does the session -> host:bus:target lookup, then calling virStorageBackendSCSIFindLUNs(int host, int bus, int target) which does the scan matching /sys/bus/scsi/host:bus:target:lun to find the LUNs. Then, this new SCSI pool would merely need a short piece of code to call virStorageBackendSCSIFindLUNs() and avoid all this HAL stuff.
