security: Driver 'none' cannot create confined guests
In case the caller specifies that confined guests are required but the security driver turns out to be 'none', we should return an error since this driver clearly cannot meet that requirement. As a result of this error, libvirtd fails to start when the host admin explicitly sets confined guests are required but there is no security driver available. Since security driver 'none' cannot create confined guests, we override default confined setting so that hypervisor drivers do not thing they should create confined guests.
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.

Description

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
