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.
Because reloading a PF driver with a different number of VFs doesn't result in any sort of event sent from udev to the libvirt node_device driver, libvirt's cache of that info can be out of date when a request arrives for the info about a device. To fix this, we refresh that data at the time of the dumpxml request, similar to what is already done for netdev link info and SCSI host capabilities. Since the same is true for iommu group information (for example, some other device in the same iommu group could have been detached from the host), we also create a function to update the iommu group info from sysfs, and a common function that does both. (a later patch will call this common function from the udev and hal backends). This resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=981546 |

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.
