The document is rather rough now, but at least contains an domain
config example of all the current supported XMLs, and tells how to
play with the driver.

+ <h1>KVM tool driver</h1>
+
+ <ul id="toc"></ul>
+
+ <p>
+ The libvirt KVMTOOL driver manages hypervisor Native Linux KVM Tool,
+ it's implemented by using command line of kvm tool binary.
+ </p>

+
+ <h2><a name="uris">Connections to the KVMTOOL driver</a></h2>
+ <p>
+ The libvirt KVMTOOL driver is a multi-instance driver, providing a single
+ system wide privileged driver (the "system" instance), and per-user
+ unprivileged drivers (the "session" instance). The URI driver protocol
+ is "kvmtool". Some example conection URIs for the libvirt driver are:
+ </p>
+
+ <pre>
+ kvmtool:///session (local access to per-user instance)
+ kvmtool+unix:///session (local access to per-user instance)
+
+ kvmtool:///system (local access to system instance)
+ kvmtool+unix:///system (local access to system instance)
+ </pre>
+ <p>
+ cgroups controllers "cpuacct", and "memory" are supported currently.
+ </p>
