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.

Michal Privoznik f4e2910552 lib: Repurpose virDomainSaveParams() with no VIR_DOMAIN_SAVE_PARAM_FILE
When no VIR_DOMAIN_SAVE_PARAM_FILE typed param is set when
calling virDomainSaveParams() then in turn virQEMUFileOpenAs()
tries to open a NULL path.

We have two options now:
1) require the typed param, which in turn may be promoted to a
   regular argument, or

2) use this opportunity to make the API behave like
   virDomainManagedSave() and use typed params to pass extra
   arguments, instead of having to invent new managed save API
   with typed params.

Let's go with option 2, as it is more future proof.

Libvirt API for virtualization

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.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
