A subsequent commit will add a "canonical" field to this structure, this patch basically just prepares the way for that. The new type is added, along with virCapabilitiesAlloc/FreeMachines() helpers and a whole bunch of code to make the transition. One quirk is that virCapabilitiesAddGuestDomain() and virCapabilitiesAddGuest() take ownership of the machine list rather than duping it. This makes sense to avoid needless copying. * src/capabilities.h: add the virCapsGuestMachine struct and use it in virCapsGuestDomainInfo, add prototypes for new functions and update the AddGuest() prototypes * src/capabilities.c: add code for allocating and freeing the new type, change the machines parameter to AddGuest() etc. * src/libvirt_private.syms: export the new helpers * src/qemu_conf.c: update all the machine type code to use the new struct * src/xen_internal.c: ditto * tests/testutilsqemu.c: ditto
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.

Description
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.
