I remembered to document this bit, but somehow forgot to implement it. This adds <driver name='kvm|vfio'/> as a subelement to the <forward> element of a network (this puts it parallel to the match between mode='hostdev' attribute in a network and type='hostdev' in an <interface>). Since it's already documented, only the parser, formatter, backend driver recognition (it just translates/moves the flag into the <interface> at the appropriate time), and a test case were needed. (I used a separate enum for the values both because the original is defined in domain_conf.h, which is unavailable from network_conf.h, and because in the future it's possible that we may want to support other non-hostdev oriented driver names in the network parser; this makes sure that one can be expanded without the other).
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.
