But now I am only playing with AFL and I would not start writing from scratch until I know for sure what I really need to do. So next, while I try with AFL I can start looking into fuzzers particularly with XML grammer generation or something like that potentially modifiable/extensible by ourselves. > I'm not aware of anyone using Google's OSS-Fuzz in the libvirt and > QEMU communities yet.

I do not think there has been serious discussion about it among libvirt and QEMU communities except some mentioning [1]. I think it could be actually benificial for this project if at some point we start working on oss-fuzz for libvirt because they share the fundamental ideas, though the proposal of this fuzzing project starts from a different perspective.
