Michal Privoznik bf9074c6a8 vsh: Don't check for OOM in vshGetTypedParamValue()
Both function description and function itself mention check for
OOM which can't happen really. There was a bug in glib where
g_strdup_*() might have not aborted on OOM, but we have our own
implementation when dealing with broken glib (see
vir_g_strdup_printf()). Therefore, checking for OOM is redundant
and can never be true.

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.
