With this, it is possible to update the path to a disk backing image on either the save or restore action, without having to binary edit the XML embedded in the state file. This also modifies virDomainSave to output a smaller xml (only the inactive xml, which is all the more virDomainRestore parses), while still guaranteeing padding for most typical abi-compatible xml replacements, necessary so that the next patch for virDomainSaveImageDefineXML will not cause unnecessary modifications to the save image file. * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSaveInternal): Add parameter, only use inactive state, and guarantee padding. (qemuDomainSaveImageOpen): Add parameter. (qemuDomainSaveFlags, qemuDomainManagedSave) (qemuDomainRestoreFlags, qemuDomainObjRestore): Update callers.
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.

Description
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.
