This patch implements support for the virtio-rng-pci device and the rng-random backend in qemu. Two capabilities bits are added to track support for those: QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIRTIO_RNG - for the device support and QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_RNG_RANDOM - for the backend support. qemu is invoked with these additional parameters if the device is enabled: -object rng-random,id=rng0,filename=/test/phile (to add the backend) -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 (to add the device)
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.
