Jiri Denemark 5f8abbb7d0 cpu: Introduce virCPUCompareUnusable
As opposed to the existing virCPUCompare{,XML} this function does not
use CPU model definitions from CPU map. It relies on CPU model usability
info from a hypervisor with a list of blockers that make the selected
CPU model unusable. Explicitly requested features are checked against
the hypervisor's view of a host CPU.

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.
