Since its introduction in 2011 (particularly in commit f4324e3292),
the option doesn't work. It just effectively disables all incoming
connections. That's because the client private data that contain the
'keepalive_supported' boolean, are initialized to zeroes so the bool is
false and the only other place where the bool is used is when checking
whether the client supports keepalive. Thus, according to the server,
no client supports keepalive.
Removing this instead of fixing it is better because a) apparently
nobody ever tried it since 2011 (4 years without one month) and b) we
cannot know whether the client supports keepalive until we get a ping or
pong keepalive packet. And that won't happen until after we dispatched
the ConnectOpen call.
Another two reasons would be c) the keepalive_required was tracked on
the server level, but keepalive_supported was in private data of the
client as well as the check that was made in the remote layer, thus
making all other instances of virNetServer miss this feature unless they
all implemented it for themselves and d) we can always add it back in
case there is a request and a use-case for it.

This is not going to be very widely used, but for some corner cases and
easier (unsafe) debugging, it might be nice.

A earlier commit changed the global log buffer so that it only
records messages that are explicitly requested via the log
filters setting. This removes the performance burden, and
improves the signal/noise ratio for messages in the global
buffer. At the same time though, it is somewhat pointless, since
all the recorded log messages are already going to be sent to an
explicit log output like syslog, stderr or the journal. The
global log buffer is thus just duplicating this data on stderr
upon crash.
The log_buffer_size config parameter is left in the augeas
lens to prevent breakage for users on upgrade. It is however
completely ignored hereafter.

This config tunable allows users to determine the maximum number of
accepted but yet not authenticated users.

This configuration knob lets user to set the length of queue of
connection requests waiting to be accept()-ed by the daemon. IOW, it
just controls the @backlog passed to listen:
int listen(int sockfd, int backlog);
Add a new 'access_drivers' config parameter to the libvirtd.conf
configuration file. This allows admins to setup the default
access control drivers to use for API authorization. The same
driver is to be used by all internal drivers & APIs

Rename existing daemonConfigLoad API to daemonConfigLoadFile and
add an alternative daemonConfigLoadData
* daemon/libvirtd-config.c, daemon/libvirtd-config.h: Add
daemonConfigLoadData and rename daemonConfigLoad to
daemonConfigLoadFile

To enable creation of unit tests, split the libvirtd config file
loading code out into separate files.
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Delete config loading code / structs
* daemon/libvirtd-config.c, daemon/libvirtd-config.h: Config
file loading APIs
