Daniel P. Berrangé 98f1cf88fa rpc: avoid leak of GSource in use for interrupting main loop
We never release the reference on the GSource created for
interrupting the main loop, nor do we remove it from the
main context if our thread is woken up prior to the wakeup
callback firing.

This can result in a leak of GSource objects, along with an
ever growing list of GSources attached to the main context,
which will gradually slow down execution of the loop, as
several operations are O(N) for the number of attached GSource
objects.

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.
