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.

Dario Faggioli d5f89a6dd7 libxl: avoid crashing if calling `virsh numatune' on inactive domain
by, in libxlDomainGetNumaParameters(), calling libxl_bitmap_init() as soon as
possible, which avoids getting to 'cleanup:', where libxl_bitmap_dispose()
happens, without having initialized the nodemap, and hence crashing after some
invalid free()-s:

         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.
