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.

Jiri Denemark 4f061ea641 qemu: Avoid dangling migration-in job on shutoff domains
Destination daemon should not rely on the client or source daemon
(depending on the type of migration) to call Finish when migration
fails, because the client may crash before it can do so. The domain
prepared for incoming migration is set to be destroyed (and migration
job cleaned up) when connection with the client closes but this is not
enough. If the associated qemu process crashes after Prepare step and
the domain is cleaned up before the connection gets closed, autodestroy
is not called for the domain and migration jobs remains set. In case the
domain is defined on destination host (i.e., it is not completely
removed once destroyed) we keep the job set for ever. To fix this, we
register a cleanup callback which is responsible to clean migration-in
job when a domain dies anywhere between Prepare and Finish steps. Note
that we can't blindly clean any job when spotting EOF on monitor since
normally an API is running at that time.

         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.
