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.

If libvirt makes any gcry_control() calls, then this prevents gnutls for doing any initialization. As such we must take care to do full initialization of libcrypt on a par with what gnutls would have done. In particular we must disable "sec mem" for cases where the user does not have mlock() permission. We also skip our init of libgcrypt if something else (ie the app using libvirt) has beaten us to it. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=951630 Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

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.
