The sd_notify method is used to tell systemd when libvirtd
has finished starting up. All it does is send a datagram
containing the string parameter to systemd on a UNIX socket
named in the NOTIFY_SOCKET environment variable. Rather than
pulling in the systemd libraries for this, just code the
notification directly in libvirt as this is a stable ABI
from systemd's POV which explicitly allows independant
implementations:
See "Reimplementable Independently" column in the
"$NOTIFY_SOCKET Daemon Notifications" row:
