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.

Eric Blake 25221a1b21 maint: avoid nested use of virConnect{Ref,Close} 
The public virConnectRef and virConnectClose API are just thin
wrappers around virObjectRef/virObjectRef, with added object
validation and an error reset.  Within our backend drivers, use
of the object validation is just an inefficiency since we always
pass valid objects.  More important to think about is what
happens with the error reset; our uses of virConnectRef happened
to be safe (since we hadn't encountered any earlier errors), but
in several cases the use of virConnectClose could lose a real
error.

Ideally, we should also avoid calling virConnectOpen() from
within backend drivers - but that is a known situation that
needs much more design work.

* src/qemu/qemu_process.c (qemuProcessReconnectHelper)
(qemuProcessReconnect): Avoid nested public API call.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuAutostartDomains)
(qemuStateInitialize, qemuStateStop): Likewise.
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c (doPeer2PeerMigrate): Likewise.
* src/storage/storage_driver.c (storageDriverAutostart):
Likewise.
* src/uml/uml_driver.c (umlAutostartConfigs): Likewise.
* src/lxc/lxc_process.c (virLXCProcessAutostartAll): Likewise.
(virLXCProcessReboot): Likewise, and avoid leaking conn on error.

         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.
