After Xen summit, we started the discussion in this[1] RFC thread to figure out how to generate Go bindings for libxl. This series implements that Go code generation using the existing IDL, and updates the existing hand-written code in xenlight.go to use the generated code.
The goal of this series is to provide a good foundation for continued development of the Go package. The v1 series can be found on my GitHub branch[2]. Changes in v2: - GitHub branch for v2 [3]. - Drop patch 01/24 from v1 since was committed as a bug fix for 4.13. - The Makefile changes in 24/24 from v1 have been moved to the patches where the build changes are introduced. Changes in v3: - GitHub branch for v3 [4]. - Simplify a pattern for iterating over builtin types in their fromC functions. - Try not to duplicate as much code in gengotypes.py, and use consistent style in generated code when calling fromC. Changes in v4: - GitHub branch for v4 [5]. - The first 16 patches were commited after v3. Changes in v5: - GitHub branch for v5 [6]. - The only 3 patches left are for generating toC marshaling functions.
