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.

The reason for introducing two capabilities, one for the device itself (cap 'mdev') and one for the parent device listing the available types ('mdev_types'), is that we should be able to do 'virsh nodedev-list --cap' not only for existing mdev devices but also for devices that support creation of mdev devices, since one day libvirt might be actually able to create the mdev devices in an automated way (just like we do for NPIV/vHBA). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1452072 Signed-off-by: Erik Skultety <eskultet@redhat.com> |

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.
