NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED is sent by qemu any time a NIC driver in the guest modified the NIC's RX Filter (for example, if the MAC address of the NIC is changed by the guest). This patch doesn't do anything useful with that event; it just sets up all the plumbing to get news of the event into a worker thread with all proper locking/reference counting, and provide an easy place to add in desired functionality. See src/qemu/EVENTHANDLERS.txt for information/instructions on adding a libvirt-internal handler for a qemu event (using NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED as an example).
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.
