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.

Daniel P. Berrange 77d3a80974 Support custom 'svirt_tcg_t' context for TCG based guests
The current SELinux policy only works for KVM guests, since
TCG requires the 'execmem' privilege. There is a 'virt_use_execmem'
boolean to turn this on globally, but that is unpleasant for users.
This changes libvirt to automatically use a new 'svirt_tcg_t'
context for TCG based guests. This obsoletes the previous
boolean tunable and makes things 'just work(tm)'

Since we can't assume we run with new enough policy, I also
make us log a warning message (once only) if we find the policy
lacks support. In this case we fallback to the normal label and
expect users to set the boolean tunable

         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.
