Andrea Bolognani 35fef220f1 rpm: Require dmidecode on more architectures
It's not only used on x86_64 these days. See virSysinfoRead().

Technically we should include loongarch64 in the list as well,
but Fedora hasn't been bootstrapped on the architecture yet,
and when the time comes several more changes are going to be
necessary anyway.

Libvirt API for virtualization

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.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
