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.

libxl uses some xenstore entries for hints in memory management (especially when starting new domain). This includes dom0 memory limit and Xen free memory margin, based on current system state. Entries are created at first function usage, so force such call at daemon startup, which most likely will be before any domain startup. Also prevent automatic memory management if dom0_mem= option passed to xen hypervisor - it is known to be incompatible with autoballoon.

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.
