This patch implements formating and parsing code for the backing store schema defined and documented by the previous patch. This patch does not aim at providing full persistent storage of disk backing chains yet. The formatter is supposed to provide the backing chain detected when starting a domain and thus it is not formatted into an inactive domain XML. The parser is implemented mainly for the purpose of testing the XML generated by the formatter and thus it does not distinguish between no backingStore element and an empty backingStore element. This will have to change once we fully implement support for user-supplied backing chains. Signed-off-by: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.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.
