libxl: Introduce libxlDriverConfig object
The libxlDriverPrivate struct contains an variety of data with varying access needs. Similar to the QEMU and LXC drivers, move all the static config data into a dedicated libxlDriverConfig object. The only locking requirement is to hold the driver lock while obtaining an instance of libxlDriverConfig. Once a reference is held on the config object, it can be used completely lockless since it is immutable.
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.
