It’s layered, so the oVirt specifics are on top of the libvirt-based code. So 
the whole VM management functionality primarily works with libvirt VMs, and 
oVirt is “just” an extension in functionality and data presentation.
We first develop it with pure libvirt in mind, and then extend it with what 
oVirt can give us in addition.
Great thing about it is that every improvement to the generic code is 
beneficial for oVirt too, and we can selectively choose for which actions 
engine is required or not
