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.

Michal Privoznik 18f231e6ff _virtualboxCreateMachine: Avoid unbounded stack
If the stars are in the right position and you're building with
VBox >= 4.2.0 it will happen that compiler thinks an array
allocated on the stack may be unbounded:

In file included from vbox/vbox_V4_2.c:13:0:
vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: In function '_virtualboxCreateMachine':
vbox/vbox_tmpl.c:2811:1: error: stack usage might be unbounded [-Werror=stack-usage=]
 _virtualboxCreateMachine(vboxGlobalData *data, virDomainDefPtr def, IMachine **machine, char *uuidstr ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED)
 ^

Well, given how the variable is declared, I had some hard time
seeing it is actually bounded. Surprisingly compiler does not
complain because of -Wframe-larger-than. This is because
variable length arrays do not count into that warning.

         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.
