We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version. global rename performed with: $ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \ | xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g' then revert the changes in ChangeLog-old.
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.
