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 7d704812b9 qemu: Introduce qemuDomainDefCheckABIStability
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=994364

Whenever we check for ABI stability, we have new xml (e.g. provided by
user, or obtained from snapshot, whatever) which we compare to old xml
and see if ABI won't break. However, if the new xml was produced via
virDomainGetXMLDesc(..., VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE) it lacks some
devices, e.g. 'pci-root' controller. Hence, the ABI stability check
fails even though it is stable. Moreover, we can't simply fix
virDomainDefCheckABIStability because removing the correct devices is
task for the driver. For instance, qemu driver wants to remove the usb
controller too, while LXC driver doesn't. That's why we need special
qemu wrapper over virDomainDefCheckABIStability which removes the
correct devices from domain XML, produces MIGRATABLE xml and calls the
check ABI stability function.

         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.
