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.

Mark McLoughlin 3b3305d859 remove all traces of lokkit support
Long ago we tried to use Fedora's lokkit utility in order to register
our iptables rules so that 'service iptables restart' would
automatically load our rules.

There was one fatal flaw - if the user had configured iptables without
lokkit, then we would clobber that configuration by running lokkit.

We quickly disabled lokkit support, but never removed it. Let's do
that now.

The 'my virtual network stops working when I restart iptables' still
remains. For all the background on this saga, see:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/227011

* src/util/iptables.c: remove lokkit support

* configure.in: remove --enable-lokkit

* libvirt.spec.in: remove the dirs used only for saving rules for lokkit

* src/Makefile.am: ditto

* src/libvirt_private.syms, src/network/bridge_driver.c,
  src/util/iptables.h: remove references to iptablesSaveRules

         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.
