[XEN PATCH 00/11] Allow to build libxl and other tools with json-c instead of yajl

[Anthony PERARD <anthony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Anthony PERARD <anthony.perard@xxxxxxxxxx>

Patch series available in this git branch:
https://xenbits.xenproject.org/git-http/people/aperard/xen-unstable.git 
br.libxl-libjsonc-v1

Hi,

The library YAJL has been unmaintained for several years, without an obvious
fork to pick.

On the other and the library json-c is been maintained and use by several other
project, it's probably already installed on your machine. So this patch series
intend to allow to build the Xen toolstack again json-c, and forgo yajl.

Just in case, YAJL is can still be used.

There's bit of libxl API that exposes YAJL, mainly so it can be used by `xl` to
call libxl_domain_config_gen_json(). It was exposed via the "libxl_json.h"
headers. This functions and others won't be available when libxl is build
against json-c.

Cheers,
