In a recent commit I've attempted to rewrite the XML generator to use virXMLFormatElement instead of manual steps. Unfortunately the commit had multiple problems resulting in a garbled XML: 1) in certain cases the wrong buffer was used resulting in misplaced snippets 2) the child element buffer was improperly set up so sub-elements were not indented This resulted in following XML being generated: $ virsh blockcopy cd vda /tmp/test.copy --raw --print-xml type='file''/tmp/test.copy'/> <driver type='raw'/> <disk> <source file=</disk> To fix this we'll generate the '<source>' element in one go and use the proper buffer for it and other places.

Libvirt API for virtualization
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.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
