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.

Daniel P. Berrange 3399875965 Only enforce check for YAJL when starting a VM
The previous check for YAJL would have many undesirable
consequences, the most important being that it caused the
capabilities XML to lose all <guest> elements. There is
no user visible feedback as to what is wrong in this respect,
merely a syslog message. The empty capabilities causes
libvirtd to then throw away all guest XML configs that are
stored.

This changes the code so that the check for YAJL is only
performed at the time we attempt to spawn a QEMU process

error: Failed to start domain vm-vnc
error: unsupported configuration: this qemu binary requires libvirt to be compiled with yajl

         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.
