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.

Daniel P. Berrange aa5bd8b9b9 Add virRandom() API to generate numbers with non-power-of-2 limit
The current virRandomBits() API is only usable if the caller wants
a random number in the range [0, n-1) where n is a power of two.
This adds a virRandom() API which generates a double in the
range [0.0,1.0) with 48 bits of entropy. It then also adds a
virRandomInt(uint32_t max) API which generates an unsigned
in the range [0,@max)

         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.
