When a domain is defined on host1, migrated to host2 and then migrated back to host1, its current configuration would overwrite the libvirtd's in-memory copy of persistent configuration of that domain. This is not desired as we want to preserve the persistent configuration untouched. This patch introduces new 'live' parameter to virDomainAssignDef. Passing 'true' for 'live' means the configuration passed to virDomainAssignDef describes a configuration of live instance of the domain. This applies for saved domains which are being restored or for incoming domains during migration. All callers have been changed to pass the appropriate value.
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.
