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.

Eric Blake ff947e984e docs: publish correct enum values 
We publish libvirt-api.xml for others to use, and in fact, the
libvirt-python bindings use it to generate python constants that
correspond to our enum values.  However, we had an off-by-one bug
that any enum that relied on C's rules for implicit initialization
of the first enum member to 0 got listed in the xml as having a
value of 1 (and all later members of the enum were equally
botched).

The fix is simple - since we add one to the previous value when
encountering an enum without an initializer, the previous value
must start at -1 so that the first enum member is assigned 0.

The python generator code has had the off-by-one ever since DV
first wrote it years ago, but most of our public enums were immune
because they had an explicit = 0 initializer.  The only affected
enums are:
- virDomainEventGraphicsAddressType (such as
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_ADDRESS_IPV4), since commit 987e31e
(libvirt v0.8.0)
- virDomainCoreDumpFormat (such as VIR_DOMAIN_CORE_DUMP_FORMAT_RAW),
since commit 9fbaff0 (libvirt v1.2.3)
- virIPAddrType (such as VIR_IP_ADDR_TYPE_IPV4), since commit
03e0e79 (not yet released)

Thanks to Nehal J Wani for reporting the problem on IRC, and
for helping me zero in on the culprit function.

values.

         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.
