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.

On machines with massive amounts of CPUs, the gnulib 'test-lock' could take minutes, or even appear to deadlock, because of poor scaling of timing interactions between multiple cores. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797284. For precedence, note that iwhd has done the same: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-01/msg00311.html We can re-enable things if gnulib ever analyzes and improves the situation. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_tool_option_extras): Avoid lock-tests. |

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.
