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.

Peter Krempa e0a07bb1f2 link-state: qemu: Add net intf modification to virUpdateDeviceFlags
This patch enables modifying network device configuration using the
virUpdateDeviceFlags API method. Matching of devices is accomplished
using MAC addresses.

While updating live configuration of a running domain, the user is
allowed only to change link state of the interface. Additional
modifications may be added later. For now the code checks for
unsupported changes and thereafter changes the link state, if
applicable.

When updating persistent configuration of guest's network interface the
whole configuration (except for the MAC address) may be modified and
is stored for the next startup.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c   - Add dispatching of virUpdateDevice for
                             network devices update (live/config)
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c  - add setting of initial link state on live
                             device addition
                           - add function to change network device
                             configuration. By now it supports only
                             changing of link state
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.h  - Headers to above functions
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c  - set link states before virtual machine
                             start. Qemu does not support setting of
                             this on the command line.

         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.
