When using virCommandRunAsync and saving the pid for later, it is useful to be able to reap that pid in the same way that it would have been auto-reaped by virCommand if we had passed NULL for the pid argument in the first place. * src/util/command.c (virPidWait, virPidAbort): New functions, created from... (virCommandWait, virCommandAbort): ...bodies of these. (includes): Drop duplicate <stdlib.h>. Ensure that our pid_t assumptions hold. (virCommandRunAsync): Improve documentation. * src/util/command.h (virPidWait, virPidAbort): New prototypes. * src/libvirt_private.syms: Export them. * docs/internals/command.html.in: Document them.
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.

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
