Michal Privoznik ab9afee6e7 virsysinfo: Define and use auto cleanup func for virSysinfoDef properly
What we are using really is heap allocated structure rather than
stack allocated. And for that it's better to use g_autoptr() +
G_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_CLEANUP_FUNC() combo, as Glib documentation for
g_auto() reads:

  This is meant to be used with stack-allocated structures and
  non-pointer types. For the (more commonly used) pointer
  version, see g_autoptr().

This will be even more visible, when virSysinfoDefPtr type is
gone. Stay tuned.

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.
