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 818a966510 virbuf: more detailed error reporting
The next patch wants to add some sanity checking, which would
be a different error than ENOMEM.  Many existing callers blindly
report OOM failure if virBuf reports an error, and this will be
wrong in the (unlikely) case that they actually had a usage error
instead; but since the most common error really is ENOMEM, I'm
not going to fix all callers.  Meanwhile, new discriminating
callers can react differently depending on what failure happened.

* src/util/buf.c (virBufferSetError): Add parameter.
(virBufferGrow, virBufferVasprintf, virBufferEscapeString)
(virBufferEscapeSexpr, virBufferEscapeShell): Adjust callers.

         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.
