Commit 8b55992f added some Coverity comments to silence what was a real bug in the code. Since then, we've had a miserable run of trying to fix the underlying problem (commits c059cde and ba5193c), and still have a problem on 32-bit machines. This fixes the problem for once and for all, by realizing that on older xen, cpumap_t is identical to uint64_t, and using the new virendian.h to do the transformation from the API (documented to be little-endian) to the host structure. * src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c (virXen_setvcpumap): Do the conversion correctly. Finally.
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
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
