Ján Tomko b02568f1be qemu: Assume QEMU_CAPS_CCW_CSSID_UNRESTRICTED
This capability was introduced by libvirt commit:
  commit 263e65fd20
      qemu: introduce vfio-ccw capability

It probes for the cssid-unrestricted property of
virtual-css-bridge, which was introduced in QEMU v2.12 by:
  commit 99577c492fb2916165ed9bc215f058877f0a4106
      s390x/css: unrestrict cssids

Since we bumped the minimum QEMU version to 4.2.0, assume
this property is always present.

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.
