Blindly returning success is misleading if the object no longer exists; it is a bit better to check for existence up front before returning information about that object. This pattern matches the fact that most of our other APIs check for existence as a side effect prior to getting at the real piece of information being queried. * src/esx/esx_driver.c (esxDomainIsUpdated, esxDomainIsPersistent): Add existence checks. * src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c (vboxDomainIsPersistent) (vboxDomainIsUpdated): Likewise.
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.
