br.libxl-libjsonc-v2
changes in v2:
- introduce $(XEN_JSON_LIBS) to have either -lyajl or -ljson-c or both (for a
short while).
- few more changes detail in each patches.
Hi,
The library YAJL has been unmaintained for several years, without an obvious
fork to pick.
On the other and the library json-c is been maintained and use by several other
project, it's probably already installed on your machine. So this patch series
intend to allow to build the Xen toolstack again json-c, and forgo yajl.
Just in case, YAJL is can still be used.
There's bit of libxl API that exposes YAJL, mainly so it can be used by `xl` to
call libxl_domain_config_gen_json(). It was exposed via the "libxl_json.h"
headers. This functions and others won't be available when libxl is build
against json-c.
Cheers,
