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.

Daniel P. Berrange 07f9b6f019 Allow certificate sanity checking to be disabled
When libvirtd starts it it will sanity check its own certs,
and before libvirt clients connect to a remote server they
will sanity check their own certs. This patch allows such
sanity checking to be skipped. There is no strong reason to
need to do this, other than to bypass possible libvirt bugs
in sanity checking, or for testing purposes.

libvirt.conf gains tls_no_sanity_certificate parameter to
go along with tls_no_verify_certificate. The remote driver
client URIs gain a no_sanity URI parameter

* daemon/test_libvirtd.aug, daemon/libvirtd.conf,
  daemon/libvirtd.c, daemon/libvirtd.aug: Add parameter to
  allow cert sanity checks to be skipped
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Add no_sanity parameter to
  skip cert checks
* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c, src/rpc/virnettlscontext.h:
  Add new parameter for skipping sanity checks independantly
  of skipping session cert validation checks

         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.
