Implements the documentation for snapshot revert vs. force. Part of the patch tightens existing behavior (previously, reverting to an old snapshot without <domain> was blindly attempted, now it requires force), while part of it relaxes behavior (previously, it was not possible to revert an active domain to an ABI-incompatible active snapshot, now force allows this transition). * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainRevertToSnapshot): Check for risky situations, and allow force to get past them.
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.
