This removes the opencoded payload freeing in the client, to use the shared virNetMessageClearPayload call. Two changes: - ClearPayload sets nfds=0, which fixes a potential crash if an error path called virNetMessageFree/Clear on the message after fds was free'd - We drop the inner loop VIR_FORCE_CLOSE... this may mean fds are kept open a little bit longer if the call is blocking but in practice I don't think it will have any effect
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.
