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.
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) Signed-off-by: Nehal J Wani <nehaljw.kkd1@gmail.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.
