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.

Jiri Denemark ef3cd6473f qemu: Fix startupPolicy regression
Commit 82d5fe5437

    qemu: check backing chains even when cgroup is omitted

added backing file checks just before the code that removes optional
disks if they are not present. However, the backing chain code fails in
case the disk file does not exist, which makes qemuProcessStart fail
regardless on configured startupPolicy.

Note that startupPolicy implementation is still wrong after this patch
since it only check the first file in a possible chain. It should rather
check the complete backing chain. But this is an existing limitation
that can be solved later. After all, startupPolicy is most useful for
CDROM images and they won't make use of backing files in most cases.

         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.
