So far, this function has just three callers. Two of them call virNetDevSetupControl to create a socket that we can then optionally use for ioctl() to fetch data. However, querying sysfs is preferred. Therefore it doesn't make much sense to require users to set up the socket if they don't even know it will be used in favour of sysfs. We can set up the socket iff we need to. Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com>
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.
