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.

glibc 2.15 (on Fedora 17) coupled with explicit disabling of
optimization during development dies a painful death:
In file included from /usr/include/limits.h:27:0,
from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/limits.h:169,
from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/syslimits.h:7,
from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/limits.h:34,
from util/bitmap.c:26:
/usr/include/features.h:314:4: error: #warning _FORTIFY_SOURCE requires compiling with optimization (-O) [-Werror=cpp]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
Work around this by only conditionally defining _FORTIFY_SOURCE,
in the case where glibc can actually use it. The trick is using
AH_VERBATIM instead of AC_DEFINE.
* m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4 (LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS): Squelch
_FORTIFY_SOURCE when needed to avoid glibc #warnings.

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.
