Description

As Hyper-V (next) is becoming mainstrean on Linux as a the root partition for Microsoft Hypervisor, what API would be used for the VMM (e.g. by a Powershell script running or Bash script running on the root partition of the Linux host)?

Is it something that will be managed into this project or another one ?
