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.

Viktor Mihajlovski eb21408f44 cgroups: Do not enforce nonexistent controllers
Currently, the controllers argument to virCgroupDetect acts both as
a result filter and a required controller specification, which is
a bit overloaded. If both functionalities are needed, it would be
better to have them seperated into a filter and a requirement mask.
The only situation where it is used today is to ensure that only
CPU related controllers are used for the VCPU directories. But here
we clearly do not want to enforce the existence of cpu, cpuacct and
specifically not cpuset at the same time.
This commit changes the semantics of controllers to "filter only".
Should a required mask ever be needed, more work will have to be done.

         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.
