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.

Martin Kletzander c3bd0019c0 systemd: Modernize machine naming
So, systemd-machined has this philosophy that machine names are like
hostnames and hence should follow the same rules.  But we always allowed
international characters in domain names.  Thus we need to modify the
machine name we are passing to systemd.

In order to change some machine names that we will be passing to systemd,
we also need to call TerminateMachine at the end of a lifetime of a
domain.  Even for domains that were started with older libvirt.  That
can be achieved thanks to virSystemdGetMachineNameByPID().  And because
we can change machine names, we can get rid of the inconsistent and
pointless escaping of domain names when creating machine names.

So this patch modifies the naming in the following way.  It creates the
name as <drivername>-<id>-<name> where invalid hostname characters are
stripped out of the name and if the resulting name is longer, it
truncates it to 64 characters.  That way we can start domains we
couldn't start before.  Well, at least on systemd.

To make it work all together, the machineName (which is needed only with
systemd) is saved in domain's private data.  That way the generation is
moved to the driver and we don't need to pass various unnecessary
arguments to cgroup functions.

The only thing this complicates a bit is the scope generation when
validating a cgroup where we must check both old and new naming, so a
slight modification was needed there.

         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.
