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.

Michal Privoznik 776e9a6b26 testutilsqemu: Write getter/setter for CPU def global variables As of `47503cc859` we are statically linking libtest_utils_qemu.a into qemuhotplugmock.so (see the original commit for reasoning). However, this breaks ASAN on older clang because now qemuhotplugtest has two instances of virCPUDef global variables (cpuDefault, cpuHaswell, cpuPower8, cpuPower9). One that comes from the binary itself (which also links with libtest_utils_qemu.a) and the other from the mock. Resolve this by making the variables static and introducing getter and setter.

Libvirt API for virtualization

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.

Further information about the libvirt project can be found on the website:
