By querying the qemu guest agent with the QMP command
"guest-network-get-interfaces" and converting the received JSON
output to structured objects.
Although "ifconfig" is deprecated, IP aliases created by "ifconfig"
are supported by this API. The legacy syntax of an IP alias is:
"<ifname>:<alias-name>". Since we want all aliases to be clubbed
under parent interface, simply stripping ":<alias-name>" suffices.
Note that IP aliases formed by "ip" aren't visible to "ifconfig",
and aliases created by "ip" do not have any specific name. But
we are lucky, as qemu guest agent detects aliases created by both.
src/qemu/qemu_agent.h:
* Define qemuAgentGetInterfaces
src/qemu/qemu_agent.c:
* Implement qemuAgentGetInterface
src/qemu/qemu_driver.c:
* New function qemuGetDHCPInterfaces
* New function qemuDomainInterfaceAddresses
src/remote_protocol-sructs:
* Define new structs
tests/qemuagenttest.c:
* Add new test: testQemuAgentGetInterfaces
Test cases for IP aliases, 0 or multiple ipv4/ipv6 address(es)

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.
