Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

Nehal J Wani 03e0e79e07 net-dhcp-leases: Implement the public APIs
Introduce 3 new APIs, virNetworkGetDHCPLeases, virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC
and virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree.

* virNetworkGetDHCPLeases: returns the dhcp leases information for a given
     virtual network.

  For DHCPv4, the information returned:
  - Network Interface Name
  - Expiry Time
  - MAC address
  - IAID (NULL)
  - IPv4 address (with type and prefix)
  - Hostname (can be NULL)
  - Client ID (can be NULL)

  For DHCPv6, the information returned:
  - Network Interface Name
  - Expiry Time
  - MAC address
  - IAID (can be NULL, only in rare cases)
  - IPv6 address (with type and prefix)
  - Hostname (can be NULL)
  - Client DUID

  Note: @mac, @iaid, @ipaddr, @clientid are in ASCII form, not raw bytes.
  Note: @expirytime can 0, in case the lease is for infinite time.

* virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC: returns the dhcp leases information for a
     given virtual network and specified MAC Address.

* virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree: allows the upper layer application to free the
     network interface object conveniently.

There is no support for flags, so user is expected to pass 0 for
both the APIs.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact 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 concurrently 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 initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
