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.

Scott Moser f0fe28cb8d lxc: do not require 'ifconfig' or 'ipconfig' in container 
Currently, the lxc implementation invokes 'ip' and 'ifconfig' commands
inside a container using 'virRun'.  That has the side effect of requiring
those commands to be present and to function in a manner consistent with
the usage.  Some small roots (such as ttylinux) may not have 'ip' or
'ifconfig'.

This patch replaces the use of these commands with usage of
netdevice.  The result is that lxc containers do not have to implement
those commands, and lxc in libvirt is only dependent on the netdevice
interface.

I've tested this patch locally against the ubuntu libvirt version enough
to verify its generally sane.  I attempted to build upstream today, but
failed with:
  /usr/bin/ld:
    ../src/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu.a(libvirt_driver_qemu_la-qemu_domain.o):
   undefined reference to symbol 'xmlXPathRegisterNs@@LIBXML2_2.4.30

Thats probably a local issue only, but I wanted to get this patch up and
see what others thought of it.  This is ubuntu bug

         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.
