handling code. In particular, if you had a section of XML like: <disk type='file' device='cdrom'> <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/> <readonly/> </disk> This used to work with older libvirt, but now fails. This is because we are actually passing the literal string (null) to the qemu command-line, which qemu barfs on. This patch fixes it up by making it blank, which allows qemu to continue on it's merry way. Signed-off-by: Chris Lalancette <clalance@redhat.com>
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.

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
