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.

Laine Stump 9579b6bc20 Fix crash in virNetDevGetVirtualFunctions
Commit 9a3ff01d7f (which was ACKed at
the end of January, but for some reason didn't get pushed until during
the 1.0.4 freeze) fixed the logic in virPCIGetVirtualFunctions().
Unfortunately, a typo in the fix (replacing VIR_REALLOC_N with
VIR_ALLOC_N during code movement) caused not only a memory leak, but
also resulted in most of the elements of the result array being
replaced with NULL. virNetDevGetVirtualFunctions() assumed (and I think
rightly so) that virPCIGetVirtualFunctions() wouldn't return any NULL
elements in the array, so it ended up segfaulting.

This was found when attempting to use a virtual network with an
auto-created pool of SRIOV VFs, e.g.:

    <forward mode='hostdev' managed='yes'>
      <pf dev='eth4'/>
    </forward>

(the pool of PCI addresses is discovered by calling
virNetDevGetVirtualFunctions() on the PF dev).

         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.
