When the legacy Xen driver probes with a NULL URI, and finds itself running on Xen, it will set conn->uri. A little bit later though it checks to see if libxl support exists, and if so declines the driver. This leaves the conn->uri set to 'xen:///', so if libxl also declines it, it prevents probing of the QEMU driver. Once a driver has set the conn->uri, it must *never* decline an open request. So we must move the libxl check earlier 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.

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.
