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.

Michal Privoznik 98a9dc532d tests: Add HPE Apollo test case to sysinfotest
Introduce a test case for sysinfotest. The data was obtained by
running dmidecode as libvirt would run it:

   dmidecode -q -t 0,1,2,3,4,11,17

Now, the expected output fits almost perfectly, except for OEM
strings where the third string looks nothing like in the
dmidecode output. This is because of testDMIDecodeDryRun() which
overwrites the third OEM string (see v6.5.0-rc1~214 for more
info). But that's okay for now.

Speaking of OEM strings, it's worth noticing two 'OEM Strings'
sections in the dmidecode output. This is causing some troubles
and will be fixed in next commit.

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.
