Add reference counting on the virDomainObjPtr objects. With the forthcoming asynchronous QEMU monitor, it will be neccessary to release the lock on virDomainObjPtr while waiting for a monitor command response. It is neccessary to ensure one thread can't delete a virDomainObjPtr while another is waiting. By introducing reference counting threads can make sure objects they are using are not accidentally deleted while unlocked. * src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c: Add virDomainObjRef/Unref APIs, remove virDomainObjFree * src/openvz/openvz_conf.c: replace call to virDomainObjFree with virDomainObjUnref
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.
