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.

- Remove all qemu emulators - Restart libvirtd - Install qemu emulators - Call 'virsh version' -> errors The only thing that will force the qemu driver to refresh it's cached capablities info is an explict API call to GetCapabilities. However in the case when the initial caps lookup at driver connect didn't find a single qemu emulator to poll, the driver is effectively useless and really can't do anything until it's populated some qemu capabilities info. With the above steps, the user would have to either know about the magic refresh capabilities call, or restart libvirtd to pick up the changes. Instead, this patch changes things so that every time a part of th driver requests access to capabilities info, check to see if we've previously seen any emulators. If not, force a refresh. In the case of 'still no emulators found', this is still very quick, so I can't think of a downside. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1000116 (cherry picked from commit |

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.
