看libvirt 源码，有些地方对应不起来，跟踪一下“virsh shutdown "命令的流程，理解了libvirt的整体框架。

jun:~/bin # virsh list

qemu driver 使用Qemu现有的管理协议QMP, 基于JSON的格式。

看xen driver 的代码，会清楚一点：借助xend http interface 来进行管理

int
xenDaemonDomainShutdown(virConnectPtr conn, virDomainDefPtr def)
{
    if (def->id < 0) {
        virReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID,
                       _("Domain %s isn't running."), def->name);
        return -1;
    }

    return xend_op(conn, def->name, "op", "shutdown", "reason", "poweroff", NULL);  //发送http post 报文给xend服务器进程
}

总结：

1.virsh 命令发送command 到 remote driver ,

2.remote driver 然后调用远程调用 (xdr协议）  到libvirtd 守护进程

3.libvirtd接收到command 分发到具体的 driver  如xen, qemu 等
