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.

Peter Krempa f2bb32b1d2 util: Fix error message when getpwuid_r fails to find the user
getpwuid_r returns success but sets the return structure to NULL when it
fails to deliver data about the requested uid. In our helper code this
created following strange error messages:

" ... cannot getpwuid_r(1234): Success"

This patch creates a more helpful message:
" ... getpwuid_r failed to retrieve data for uid '1234'"

         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.
