I installed the xen development packages on my non-Xen F16 machine in order to compile-test xen code and ensure we don't break things on that front, but being a non-xen machine, /usr/sbin/xend is obviously not running. Unfortunately, xen-4.1.2-1.fc16 has a bug where merely trying to probe xend status on a non-xen kernel causes xend to issue an ABRT crash report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728696 Even though libvirt (correctly) skips the test, the xend crash report is unnecessary noise. Fix this by first filtering out non-xen kernels even before attempting to probe xend. The test still runs and passes on a RHEL 5 xen kernel after this patch. * tests/reconnect.c (mymain): Skip xend probe on non-xen kernel. * tests/statstest.c (mymain): Likewise.
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.
