The code supported unit='E' for "exabyte", but the RNG did not; conversely, the RNG supported "z" and "y" but the code did not (I'm jealous if you have that much storage, particularly since it won't fit in 64-bit off_t). Also, the code supported <allocation unit='...'>, but not the RNG. In an effort to make 'unit' more worthwhile in future patches, it's easier to share it between files. In making this factorization, note that absFilePath is more permissive than 'path', so storage pools and storage volumes will now validate with a wider set of file names than before. I don't think this should be a problem in practice. * docs/schemas/storagepool.rng: Include basic types, rather than repeating things here. * docs/schemas/storagevol.rng: Likewise. * docs/schemas/basictypes.rng: Add 'unsignedLong', 'unit', and fix to match storage code.
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.
