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.
Fix regression introduced in commit a4a287242 - basically, the
phyp storage driver should only accept the same URIs that the
main phyp driver is willing to accept. Blindly accepting all
URIs meant that the phyp storage driver was being consulted for
'virsh -c qemu:///session pool-list --all', rather than the
qemu storage driver, then since the URI was not for phyp, attempts
to then use the phyp driver crashed because it was not initialized.
* src/phyp/phyp_driver.c (phypStorageOpen): Only accept connections
already open to a phyp driver.
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.
