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.

probes.h can only be generated on Linux, and then only with dtrace installed. If it is part of the tarball, then either 'make dist' will fail if you don't have that setup, or we would have to start keeping probes.h in libvirt.git. Since we only need it to be generated when dtrace is in use, it's better to avoid shipping it in the first place, and avoid tracking it in git. Meanwhile, there is a build dependency - since the RPC code is generated, it can be built early; but when dtrace is enabled, we must ensure probes.h is built even earlier. Commit |

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.
