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.

Without the VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_ASYNC flag, libvirt will internally poll using qemu's "query-block-jobs" API and will not return until the operation has been completed. API users are advised that this operation is unbounded and further interaction with the domain during this period may block. Future patches may refactor things to allow other queries in parallel with this polling. For older qemu, we synthesize the cancellation event, since qemu won't generate it. The choice of polling duration copies from the code in qemu_migration.c.

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.
