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.

Ján Tomko bab2eda6ad Always specify qcow2 compat level on qemu-img command line
qemu-img is going to switch the default for QCOW2
to QCOW2v3 (compat=1.1)

Extend the probing for qemu-img command line options to check
if -o compat is supported. If the volume definition specifies
the qcow2 format but no compat level and -o compat is supported,
specify -o compat=0.10 to create a QCOW2v2 image.

         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.
