Libvirt native C API and daemons
a2d2b80fbd
This patch introduces the RNG schema and updates necessary data strucutures to allow various hypervisors to make use of Gluster protocol as one of the supported network disk backend. Next patch will add support to make use of this feature in Qemu since it now supports Gluster protocol as one of the network based storage backend. Two new optional attributes for <host> element are introduced - 'transport' and 'socket'. Valid transport values are tcp, unix or rdma. If none specified, tcp is assumed. If transport is unix, socket specifies path to unix socket. This patch allows users to specify disks on gluster backends like this: <disk type='network' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source protocol='gluster' name='Volume1/image'> <host name='example.org' port='6000' transport='tcp'/> </source> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> </disk> <disk type='network' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source protocol='gluster' name='Volume2/image'> <host transport='unix' socket='/path/to/sock'/> </source> <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/> </disk> Signed-off-by: Harsh Prateek Bora <harsh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

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.
