virNetDevVPortProfile has (had) a type field that can be set to one of several values, and a union of several structs, one for each type. When a domain's interface object is of type "network", the domain config may not know beforehand which type of virtualport is going to be provided in the actual device handed down from the network driver at runtime, but may want to set some values in the virtualport that may or may not be used, depending on the type. To support this usage, this patch replaces the union of structs with toplevel fields in the struct, making it possible for all of the fields to be set at the same time.
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.
