When you happen to have a libvirtd binary compiled with the
libxenlight driver (say you have installed xen-4.1 libraries)
but not running a xen enabled system, then libvirtd fails to start.
The cause is that libxlStartup() returns -1 when failing to initialize
the library, and this propagates to virStateInitialize() which consider
this a failure. We should only exit libxlStartup with an error code
if something like an allocation error occurs, not if the driver failed
to initialize.
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: fix libxlStartup() to not return -1
when failing to initialize the libxenlight library
* src/Makefile.am src/libvirt_private.syms configure.ac: share and
reuse the sexpr routines from sexpr.h of the old xen driver
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: implements libxlDomainXMLFromNative and
libxlDomainXMLToNative
Hook the virtual cpu functions to their libxenlight counterparts
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: implements libxlDomainSetVcpus,
libxlDomainGetVcpus, libxlDomainSetVcpusFlags,
libxlDomainGetVcpusFlags and libxlDomainPinVcpu
* src/libxl/libxl_conf.h: add the necessary fields to the driver
private structure
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: add lifecycle event support and entry
points for event(de)register(any)
It is possible to set a migration speed limit when starting
migration. This new API allows the speed limit to be changed
on the fly to adjust to changing conditions
* src/driver.h, src/libvirt.c, src/libvirt_public.syms,
include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Add virDomainMigrateSetMaxSpeed
* src/esx/esx_driver.c, src/lxc/lxc_driver.c,

src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: Stub new API
Add a new xen driver based on libxenlight [1], which is the primary
toolstack starting with Xen 4.1.0. The driver is stateful and runs
privileged only.
Like the existing xen-unified driver, the libxenlight driver is
accessed with xen:// URI. Driver selection is based on the status
of xend. If xend is running, the libxenlight driver will not load
and xen:// connections are handled by xen-unified. If xend is not
running *and* the libxenlight driver is available, xen://
connections are deferred to the libxenlight driver.
V6:
- Address several code style issues noted by Daniel Veillard
- Make drive work with xen:/// URI
- Hold domain object reference while domain is injected in
libvirt event loop. Race found and fixed by Markus Groß.
V5:
- Ensure events are unregistered when domain private data
is destroyed. Discovered and fixed by Markus Groß.
V4:
- Handle restart of libvirtd, reconnecting to previously
started domains
- Rebased to current master
- Tested against Xen 4.1 RC7-pre (c/s 22961:c5d121fd35c0)
V3:
- Reserve vnc port within driver when autoport=yes
V2:
- Update to Xen 4.1 RC6-pre (c/s 22940:5a4710640f81)
- Rebased to current master
- Plug memory leaks found by Stefano Stabellini and valgrind
- Handle SHUTDOWN_crash domain death event
