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 current virDomainObjListPtr object stores domain objects in an array. This means that to find a particular objects requires O(n) time, and more critically acquiring O(n) mutex locks. The new impl replaces the array with a virHashTable, keyed off UUID. Finding a object based on UUID is now O(1) time, and only requires a single mutex lock. Finding by name/id is unchanged in complexity. In changing this, all code which iterates over the array had to be updated to use a hash table iterator function callback. Several of the functions which were identically duplicating across all drivers were pulled into domain_conf.c * src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c: Change virDomainObjListPtr to use virHashTable. Add a initializer method virDomainObjListInit, and rename virDomainObjListFree to virDomainObjListDeinit, since its not actually freeing the container, only its contents. Also add some convenient methods virDomainObjListGetInactiveNames, virDomainObjListGetActiveIDs and virDomainObjListNumOfDomains which can be used to implement the correspondingly named public API entry points in drivers * src/libvirt_private.syms: Export new methods from domain_conf.h * src/lxc/lxc_driver.c, src/opennebula/one_driver.c, src/openvz/openvz_conf.c, src/openvz/openvz_driver.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c, src/test/test_driver.c, src/uml/uml_driver.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: Update all code to deal with hash tables instead of arrays for domains |

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.
