Hi,
I need to create an application where I can use a single interface for
different VMs (libvirt becomes an obvious choice then). However I will
need to control a VM running on custom hypervisor other than ones
currently supported by libvirt. Is it possible to add a new interface
to the hypervisor (easily)? Shall I try to use "test-hypervisor"
supported by libvirt ??
I shall be grateful for some initial pointers to read which can help
me for the task.
Thanks and Regards,
Ankur

Yes, adding a new hypervisor is intended to be relatively easy - provide
callbacks that implement the semantics for your hypervisor, and it is
okay to do things incrementally. See some recent posts for how to do
this. HyperV was just added [1], and the Parallels driver had an
initial proposal [2] (although it still needs a bit more work to be
ready to integrate). Before that was libxl (I didn't dig up a URL for
that one):
