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.

Laine Stump 06169a115d build: support explicitly disabling netcf
placing "-Dnetcf=disabled" on the meson commandline was ignored,
meaning that even with that option the build would get WITH_NETCF if
the netcf-devel package was found - the only way to disable it was to
uninstall netcf-devel.

This patch adds the small bit of logic to check the netcf meson
commandline option (in addition to whether netcf-devel is installed)
before defining WITH_NETCF.

Libvirt API for virtualization

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.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
