Or, if your question is "Where is ignore_value defined", the answer is
that libvirt uses gnulib, and gnulib's "ignore-value.h" (imported during
./bootstrap if you are building from git; if you are building a release
tarball then it was already part of the tarball under lib/) contains
this definition:

/* Normally casting an expression to void discards its value, but GCC
   versions 3.4 and newer have __attribute__ ((__warn_unused_result__))
   which may cause unwanted diagnostics in that case.  Use __typeof__
   and __extension__ to work around the problem, if the workaround is
   known to be needed.  */
#if 3 < __GNUC__ + (4 <= __GNUC_MINOR__)
# define ignore_value(x) \
    (__extension__ ({ __typeof__ (x) __x = (x); (void) __x; }))
#else
# define ignore_value(x) ((void) (x))
#endif
