Define a wire protocol for talking to the virtlockd daemon
The virtlockd daemon will be responsible for managing locks on virtual machines. Communication will be via the standard RPC infrastructure. This provides the XDR protocol definition * src/locking/lock_protocol.x: Wire protocol for virtlockd * src/Makefile.am: Include lock_protocol.[ch] in virtlockd Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

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.
