In the 'directory' and 'netfs' storage pools, a user can see both 'file' and 'dir' storage volume types, to know when they can descend into a subdirectory. But in a network-based storage pool, such as the upcoming 'gluster' pool, we use 'network' instead of 'file', and did not have any counterpart for a directory until this patch. Adding a new volume type 'network-dir' is better than reusing 'dir', because it makes it clear that the only way to access 'network' volumes within that container is through the network mounting (leaving 'dir' for something accessible in the local file system). * include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virStorageVolType): Expand enum. * docs/formatstorage.html.in: Document it. * docs/schemasa/storagevol.rng (vol): Allow new value. * src/conf/storage_conf.c (virStorageVol): Use new value. * src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildVolumeString): Fix client. * src/qemu/qemu_conf.c (qemuTranslateDiskSourcePool): Likewise. * tools/virsh-volume.c (vshVolumeTypeToString): Likewise. * src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c (virStorageBackendFileSystemVolDelete): 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.
