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.
The libvirt_util.la library was mistakenly linked into libvirtd directly. Since libvirt_util.la is already linked to libvirt.so, this resulted in libvirtd getting two copies of the code and more critically 2 copies of static global variables. Testing in turn exposed a issue with loadable modules. The gnulib replacement functions are not exported to loadable modules. Rather than trying to figure out the name sof all gnulib functions & export them, just linkage all loadable modules against libgnu.la statically. * daemon/Makefile.am: Remove linkage of libvirt_util.la and libvirt_driver.la * src/Makefile.am: Link driver modules against libgnu.la * src/libvirt.c: Don't try to load modules which were compiled out * src/libvirt_private.syms: Export all other internal symbols that are required by drivers |

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.
