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 concurently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance.

Libvirt aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

What's New in This Release:
This release fixes failure of domain information hypercalls when using the hypervisor on 32-bit platforms with Xen 3.0.3 and memory corruption which happened when reading CPU-2-vCPU mapping information from xend.
