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.

Jiri Denemark d4d8774468 Revert "rpc: Discard non-blocking calls only when necessary"
This reverts commit b1e374a7ac, which was
rather bad since I failed to consider all sides of the issue. The main
things I didn't consider properly are:

- a thread which sends a non-blocking call waits for the thread with
  the buck to process the call
- the code doesn't expect non-blocking calls to remain in the queue
  unless they were already partially sent

Thus, the reverted patch actually breaks more than what it fixes and
clients (which may even be libvirtd during p2p migrations) will likely
end up in a deadlock.

         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.
