+(2) There is no console / kernel messages in this configuration, but
+we might consider capturing stderr from the daemon.
+
+(3) guestfs_config and guestfs_add_drive become no-ops.
+
+Obviously in this configuration, commands are run directly on the
+local machine's disks. You could just run the commands themselves
+directly, but libguestfs provides a convenient API and language
+bindings. Also deals with tricky stuff like parsing the output of the
+LVM commands. Also we get to leverage other code such as
+virt-inspector.
+
+This is mainly useful from live CDs, ie. virt-p2v.
+
+Should we bother having the daemon at all and just link the guestfsd
+code directly into libguestfs?

+PPC problems:
+
+ ppc (32 bit) works with qemu from git, however there is no serial console
+
+ ppc64 requires extra parameters:
+ -M mac99 -cpu ppc64
+ however it still fails:
+ invalid/unsupported opcode: 01 - 01 - 1a (06301e83) 00000000018c2738 1
+ invalid bits: 00400000 for opcode: 0b - 19 - 15 (2d746572) 0000000000009230
+
+ no serial console in ppc or ppc64 because no one can tell us what
+ console=ttyXX option to use

+Extra commands / functionality:
+
+ General glibc / core programs:
+ chgrp
+ grep (do it locally using pipe?)
+ dd (?)
+ ln / ln -s
+ readlink
+ utime / utimes / futimes / futimens / l..
+ more mk*temp calls
+ some sort of alloc/fallocate/posix_fallocate call to create empty space
+ realpath
+ trunc[ate??]
+ getfattr (also useful because gives us access to NTFS datastreams)
+ setfattr
+
+ ext2 properties:
+ chattr
+ lsattr
+ badblocks
+ blkid
+ debugfs
+ dumpe2fs
+ e2image

+Allow swap space from the guest to be used. Is it a good idea?
