winsock2.h must always be included before windows.h
Some GNULIB headers (eg unistd.h) will often need to include winsock2.h for various symbols. There is a rule that winsock2.h must be included before windows.h. This means that any file which does #ifdef WIN32 #include <windows.h> #endif #include <unistd.h> is potentially broken. A simple rule is that /all/ includes of windows.h must be matched with a preceding include of winsock2.h regardless of whether unistd.h is used currently Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
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.
