Currently virNetSocketNew fails because virSetCloseExec fails as there is no proper implementation for it on Windows at the moment. Workaround this by pretending that setting close-on-exec on the fd works. This can be done because libvirt currently lacks the ability to create child processes on Windows anyway. So there is no point in failing to set a flag that isn't useful at the moment anyway. (cherry picked from commit fcfa4bfb1660cdb083aa61e366ddc8e91a53e3ed)
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.
