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.

Eric Blake 7f626e478d build: use automake subdir-objects
Automake 2.0 will enable subdir-objects by default; in preparation
for that change, automake 1.14 outputs LOADS of warnings:

daemon/Makefile.am:38: warning: source file '../src/remote/remote_protocol.c' is in a subdirectory,
daemon/Makefile.am:38: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake-1.14: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake-1.14: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake-1.14: automake option hasn't been enabled.  For now, the corresponding output
automake-1.14: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory.  However,
automake-1.14: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake-1.14: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake-1.14: of the corresponding sources.
automake-1.14: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake-1.14: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
daemon/Makefile.am:38: warning: source file '../src/remote/lxc_protocol.c' is in a subdirectory,
daemon/Makefile.am:38: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
...

As automake 1.9 also supported this option, and the previous patches
fixed up the code base to work with it, it is safe to now turn it on
unconditionally.

* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Enable subdir-objects.
* .gitignore: Ignore .dirstamp directories.
* src/Makefile.am (PDWTAGS, *-protocol-struct): Adjust to
new subdir-object location of .lo files.

         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.
