Subject: Ignore char devices in storage pools by default
X-Git-Tag: v1.2.3-rc1~107
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0edfc9ef63b338bbcb8eb4b98653589c3889726e;p=thirdparty%2Flibvirt.git

Ignore char devices in storage pools by default

Without this, using /dev/mapper as a directory pool
fails in virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD:
cannot seek to end of file '/dev/mapper/control': Illegal seek

Skip over character devices by default.
