'-device VGA' maps to '-vga std' '-device cirrus-vga' maps to '-vga cirrus' '-device qxl-vga' maps to '-vga qxl' (there is also '-device qxl' for secondary devices) '-device vmware-svga' maps to '-vga vmware' For qemu(>=1.2), we can use -device to replace -vga for video device. For the primary video device, the patch tries to use 0x2 slot for matching old qemu. If the 0x2 slot is allocated already, the addr property could help for using any available slot. For qemu(< 1.2), we keep using -vga for primary device.
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.
