This introduces a new domain
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_CONTROL_ERROR
Which uses the existing generic callback
typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
void *opaque);
This event is intended to be emitted when there is a failure in
some part of the domain virtualization system. Whether the domain
continues to run/exist after the failure is an implementation
detail specific to the hypervisor.
The idea is that with some types of failure, hypervisors may
prefer to leave the domain running in a "degraded" mode of
operation. For example, if something goes wrong with the QEMU
monitor, it is possible to leave the guest OS running quite
happily. The mgmt app will simply loose the ability todo various
tasks. The mgmt app can then choose how/when to deal with the
failure that occured.

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.
