libguestfs is a C library for viewing and modifying disk images.  It
lets you open up any disk image, and look at the files inside it.  You
can also analyze disk images, inject files, or even create disk images
from scratch.

In this talk I'm going to show you a concrete example of using the
library from Python.  Then I'm going to talk about some of the latest
features of libguestfs and how they might be useful in OpenStack.

[ ---- 1: Creating the handle, adding drives, launching. ---- ]

[ ---- 2: Inspect ---- ]

[ ---- 3: Inject files ---- ]

[ ---- 4: Shutdown the handle ---- ]

[ ---- 5: Alternative: mount-local ----- ]

OpenStack uses libguestfs for file injection currently.  With
RHEL 6.4 + mount-local support, we can do that much better.

[ ---- 7: OpenStack: Resizing, partition auditing ---- ]

[ ---- 8: OpenStack: sVirt ---- ]

Starting with RHEL 7, libguestfs will use sVirt to confine
the appliance.  This gives us exceptional, unmatched security
against malicious disk images that random users upload.

Any questions?
