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.

With this patch, one can specify the disk source using libvirt storage like: <disk type='volume' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/> <source pool='default' volume='fc18.img'/> <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/> </disk> "seclabels" and "startupPolicy" are not supported for this new disk type ("volume"). They will be supported in later patches. docs/formatdomain.html.in: * Add documents for new XMLs docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng: * Add rng for new XMLs; src/conf/domain_conf.h: * New struct for 'volume' type disk source (virDomainDiskSourcePoolDef) * Add VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_TYPE_VOLUME for enum virDomainDiskType src/conf/domain_conf.c: * New helper virDomainDiskSourcePoolDefParse to parse the 'volume' type disk source. * New helper virDomainDiskSourcePoolDefFree to free the source def if 'volume' type disk. tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk-source-pool.xml: tests/qemuxml2xmltest.c: * New test |

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.
