This patch set adds VirtualBox 4.2 initial support for the libvirt
vbox driver.
I've tested enough to check capabilities, create a VM, destroy it, etc. Five
patches total:
- Patch 1 is the C API header file from Oracle, cleaned up for libvirt.
- Patch 2 is the version specific source file for version dependency.
- Patch 3 is the src/Makefile.am change to pick up the two new files.
- Patch 4 is the vbox driver support for the new VirtualBox API/version.
- Patch 5 is the vbox_tmpl.c template support for the new version.
A few things have changed in the VirtualBox API - some small (capitalizations
of things in function names like Ip to IP and Dhcp to DHCP) and some much larger
(FindMedium is superceded by OpenMedium). The biggest change for the sake of this
patch set is the signature of CreateMachine is quite a bit different. Using the
Oracle source as a guide, to spin up a VM with a given UUID, it looks like a text
flag has to be passed in a new argument to CreateMachine. This flag is built in the
VirtualBox 4.2 specific ifdefs and is kind of ugly but works. Additionally, there
is now (unused) VM groups support in CreateMachine and the previous 'osTypeId'
arg
is currently set to nsnull as in the Oracle code.
The FindMedium to OpenMedium changes were more straightforward and are pretty clear.
The rest of the vbox template changes are basically spelling/capitalization changes
from the looks of things.
This probably isn't perfect, but it works on git and patched against 0.10.2 for a
few quick tests. Not currently on the list, so ping me directly if you need any
other info on these, or if anything could use additional work. Thanks! -r

As the patches can still be cleanly applied on the current master I'll
try to do a test/review and hopefully get it merged.
