The function virNetworkObjListExport() in network_conf.c had a call to the public API virNetworkFree() which was causing a link error: CCLD libvirt_driver_vbox_network_impl.la ./.libs/libvirt_conf.a(libvirt_conf_la-network_conf.o): In function `virNetworkObjListExport': /home/laine/devel/libvirt/src/conf/network_conf.c:4496: undefined reference to `virNetworkFree' This would happen when I added #include "network_conf.h" into domain_conf.h, then attempted to call a new function from that file (and enum converter, similar to virNetworkForwardTypeToString()) In the end, virNetworkFree() ends up just calling virObjectUnref(obj) anyway (after clearing all pending errors, which we probably *don't* want to do in the cleanup of a utility function), so this is likely more correct than the original code as well.
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.
