When the chain names and table name used by the nftables firewall backend were changed in commit 958aa7f274904eb8e4678a43eac845044f0dcc38, I forgot to change the test data file base.nftables, which has the extra "list" and "add chain/table" commands that are generated for the first test case of networkxml2firewalltest.c. When the full set of tests is run, the first test will be an iptables test case, so those extra commands won't be added to any of the nftables cases, and so the data in base.nftables never matches, and the tests are all successful. However, if the test are limited with, e.g. VIR_TEST_RANGE=2 (test #2 will be the nftables version of the 1st test case), then the commands to add nftables table/chains *will* be generated in the test output, and so the test will fail. Because I was only running the entire test series after the initial commits of nftables tests, I didn't notice this. Until now. base.nftables has now been updated to reflect the current names for chains/table, and running individual test cases is once again successful.

Libvirt API for virtualization
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.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
