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.

Osier Yang 41514f7b3e qemu: Parse current balloon value returned by query_balloon
Qemu once supported following memory stats which will returned by
"query_balloon":

    stat_put(dict, "actual", actual);
    stat_put(dict, "mem_swapped_in", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_SWAP_IN]);
    stat_put(dict, "mem_swapped_out", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_SWAP_OUT]);
    stat_put(dict, "major_page_faults", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MAJFLT]);
    stat_put(dict, "minor_page_faults", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MINFLT]);
    stat_put(dict, "free_mem", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MEMFREE]);
    stat_put(dict, "total_mem", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MEMTOT]);

But it later disabled all the stats except "actual" by commit
07b0403dfc2b2ac179ae5b48105096cc2d03375a.

libvirt doesn't parse "actual", so user will always see a empty result
with "virsh dommemstat $domain". Even qemu haven't disabled the stats,
we should support parsing "actual".

         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.
