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.

Commit id '532fef36' added a call to fallocate() and some error handling based on whether or not the function existed. This new call resulted in libvirt-cim/cimtest failures when attempting to create a volume with "0" (zero) allocation value. The failure is logged as: Oct 9 07:51:33 localhost libvirtd[8030]: cannot allocate 0 bytes in file '/var/lib/libvirt/images/cimtest-vol.img': Invalid argument This can also be seen with virsh vol-create-as: error: Failed to create vol test error: cannot allocate 0 bytes in file '/home/vm-images/test': Invalid argument error: Failed to create vol test error: cannot allocate 0 bytes in file '/home/vm-images/test': Invalid argument It turns out fallocate() will return EINVAL when the incoming 'len' (or allocation) value is 0 (or less). |

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.
