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.

This refactoring is necessary to support hotplug detach of type=hostdev network devices, but needs to be in a separate patch to make potential debugging of regressions more practical. Rather than the lowest level functions searching for a matching device, the search is now done in the toplevel function, and an intermediate-level function (qemuDomainDetachThisHostDevice()), which expects that the device's entry is already found, is called (this intermediate function will be called by qemuDomainDetachNetDevice() in order to support detach of type=hostdev net devices) This patch should result in 0 differences in functionality. |

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.
