After discussions with systemd developers it was decided that a better default policy for resource partitions is to have 3 default partitions at the top level /system - system services /machine - virtual machines / containers /user - user login session This ensures that the default policy isolates guest from user login sessions & system services, so a mis-behaving guest can't consume 100% of CPU usage if other things are contending for it. Thus we change the default partition from /system to /machine Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
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.
