This patch introduces a function to detect whether the specified emulator is QEMU_XEN or QEMU_XEN_TRADITIONAL. Detection is based on the string "Options specific to the Xen version:" in '$qemu -help' output. AFAIK, the only qemu containing that string in help output is the old Xen fork (aka qemu-dm). Note: QEMU_XEN means a qemu that contains support for Xen. QEMU_XEN_TRADITIONAL means Xen's old forked qemu 0.10.2 Signed-off-by: Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@suse.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.
