Libvir is a C toolkit to interract with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available
under the
GNU Lesser
General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System
means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurently
on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux
instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API primarily for
the Xen
paravirtualization mechanism but should be able to integrate other
virtualization mechanisms.
