Introduce virStorageAuthDef and friends. Future patches will merge/utilize
their view of storage source/pool auth/secret definitions.
New API's include:
virStorageAuthDefParse: Parse the "<auth/>" XML data for either the
domain disk or storage pool returning a
virStorageAuthDefPtr
virStorageAuthDefCopy: Copy a virStorageAuthDefPtr - to be used by
the qemuTranslateDiskSourcePoolAuth when it
copies storage pool auth data into domain
disk auth data
virStorageAuthDefFormat: Common output of the "<auth" in the domain
disk or storage pool XML
virStorageAuthDefFree: Free memory associated with virStorageAuthDef
Subsequent patches will utilize the new functions for the domain disk and
storage pools.
Future work in the hostdev pass through can then make use of common data
structures and code.
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.
