[libvirt] Questions about virtlogd

[Wei Liu]

Hello libvirt maintainers,

Libvirt implements virtlogd in version 1.3 which now handles logging
for QEMU process. I am wondering if it is possible to make it a
separate package and maintain stable interfaces for external users?

This is related to XSA-180 / CVE-2014-3672 (unrestricted QEMU
logging). We are evaluating using virtlogd vs writing our own
solution. I believe there are still some open questions on how exactly
the integration could be done but let's worry about that later.

Thanks
Wei.
