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.

Michal Privoznik ab489ea318 conf: Introduce virNetDevBandwidthValidate()
This function validates whether parsed limits are within range as
defined by 'tc' sources (since we use tc to set QoS; or OVS which
then uses tc too). The 'tc' program stores speeds in 64bit
integers (unit is bytes per second) and sizes in uints (unit is
bytes). We use different units: kilobytes per second and
kibibytes and therefore we can parse values larger than 'tc' can
handle and thus need a function to check if values still fit.

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.
