Ján Tomko 5c706266cb tests: refactor testSELinuxLoadDef
Since its introduction in
commit 907a39e735
    Add a test suite for validating SELinux labelling

this function did not return NULL on OOM.

Since we abort on OOM now, switch testSELinuxMungePath to void,
return NULL explicitly on XML parsing failure and remove
the (now pointless) cleanup label.

Libvirt API for virtualization

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.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
