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.

Currently, we use pthread_sigmask(SIG_BLOCK, ...) prior to calling
poll(). This is okay, as we don't want poll() to be interrupted.
However, then - immediately as we fall out from the poll() - we try to
restore the original sigmask - again using SIG_BLOCK. But as the man
page says, SIG_BLOCK adds signals to the signal mask:
SIG_BLOCK
The set of blocked signals is the union of the current set and the set argument.
Therefore, when restoring the original mask, we need to completely
overwrite the one we set earlier and hence we should be using:
SIG_SETMASK
The set of blocked signals is set to the argument set.

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.
