storage: Implement storage driver helper to chown disk images
Gluster storage works on a similar principle to NFS where it takes the uid and gid of the actual process and uses it to access the storage volume on the remote server. This introduces a need to chown storage files on gluster via native API.
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.
