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.

Daniel P. Berrange 50896b2804 logging: change log protocol to be more reusable
The current virtlogd RPC protocol provides the ability to
handle log files associated with QEMU stdout/err. The log
protocol messages take the virt driver, domain name and
use that to form a log file path. This is quite restrictive
as it prevents us re-using the same RPC protocol messages
for logging to char device backends where the filename
can be arbitrarily user specified. It is also bad because
it means we have 2 separate locations which have to decide
on logfile name.

This change alters the RPC protocol so that we pass the
desired log file path along when opening the log file
initially. Now the virt driver is exclusively in charge
of deciding the log filename

         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.
