On most distros, spice-vdagent will be autostarted as part of the startup of the desktop environment session. This is done by spice-vdagent.desktop, which has no way of checking if we are in a virt environment with the needed devices present.
Currently, if /dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.spice.0 is missing, we log an error in syslog, and exit with an error exit code. This is too noisy when autostarting it on a bare metal machine which have no use for spice-vdagent. This reverts 0159111b to get rid of these warnings in the session's logs https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/linux/vd_agent/issues/12 Signed-off-by: Christophe Fergeau <cferg...@redhat.com> --- src/vdagent/vdagent.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/vdagent/vdagent.c b/src/vdagent/vdagent.c index 90247f9..dd89aa4 100644 --- a/src/vdagent/vdagent.c +++ b/src/vdagent/vdagent.c @@ -451,8 +451,8 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) LOG_USER); if (file_test(portdev) != 0) { - syslog(LOG_ERR, "Cannot access vdagent virtio channel %s", portdev); - return 1; + g_print("vdagent virtio channel %s is not available, exiting\n", portdev); + return 0; } if (do_daemonize) -- 2.20.1 _______________________________________________ Spice-devel mailing list Spice-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
