Core driver implementation with ebtables support
This patch implements the core driver and provides - management functionality for managing the filter XMLs - compiling the internal filter representation into ebtables rules - applying ebtables rules on a network (tap,macvtap) interface - tearing down ebtables rules that were applied on behalf of an interface - updating of filters while VMs are running and causing the firewalls to be rebuilt - other bits and pieces Signed-off-by: Stefan Berger <stefanb@us.ibm.com>
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.

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
