- I advertise two subtypes, of '_xen.libvirtd._tcp' and '_qemu.libvirtd._tcp' What I actually want todo is to be able to probe the libvirt local drivers to auto-discover what virtualization platforms are available. A sort of lightweight virConnectOpen which merely returns TRUE/FALSE and doesn't actually allocate a virConnectPtr object. Need to extend the internal driver API for this.
I wanted this feature too, however I don't think the way that you're proposing is right.
Just as virConnectGetCapabilities returns the capabilities of the current hypervisor, I think there should be a call like 'virGetInfo' (or something like that) which returns the capabilities of the node, which would include what hypervisors are supported.
