Use flags of 12.5.0
- apparmor Enable support for the AppArmor application security system
- audit Enable support for Linux audit subsystem using sys-process/audit
- bash-completion Enable bash-completion support
- +caps Use Linux capabilities library to control privilege
- dtrace Enable dtrace support via dev-debug/systemtap
- firewalld DBus interface to iptables/ebtables allowing for better runtime management of your firewall.
- fuse Allow LXC to use sys-fs/fuse for mountpoints
- glusterfs Enable GlusterFS support via sys-cluster/glusterfs
- iscsi Allow using an iSCSI remote storage server as pool for disk image storage
- iscsi-direct Allow using libiscsi for iSCSI storage pool backend
- +libvirtd Builds the libvirtd daemon as well as the client utilities instead of just the client utilities
- lvm Allow using the Logical Volume Manager (sys-fs/lvm2) as pool for disk image storage
- libssh Use net-libs/libssh to communicate with remote libvirtd hosts, for example: qemu+libssh://server/system
- libssh2 Use net-libs/libssh2 to communicate with remote libvirtd hosts, for example: qemu+libssh2://server/system
- lxc Support management of Linux Containers virtualisation (app-containers/lxc)
- nbd Allow using sys-block/nbdkit to access network disks
- nfs Allow using Network File System mounts as pool for disk image storage
- nls Add Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale utilities)
- numa Use NUMA for memory segmenting via sys-process/numactl and sys-process/numad
- parted Allow using real disk partitions as pool for disk image storage, using sys-block/parted to create, resize and delete them.
- pcap Support auto learning IP addreses for routing
- policykit Enable PolicyKit (polkit) authentication support
- +qemu Support management of QEMU virtualisation (app-emulation/qemu)
- rbd Enable rados block device support via sys-cluster/ceph
- sasl Add support for the Simple Authentication and Security Layer
- selinux !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
- test Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently)
- +udev Enable virtual/udev integration (device discovery, power and storage device support, etc)
- virtiofsd Drag in virtiofsd dependency app-emulation/virtiofsd
- virtualbox Support management of VirtualBox virtualisation (app-emulation/virtualbox)
- +virt-network Enable virtual networking (NAT) support for guests. Includes all the dependencies for NATed network mode. Effectively any network setup that relies on libvirt to setup and configure network interfaces on your host. This can include bridged and routed networks ONLY if you are allowing libvirt to create and manage the underlying devices for you. In some cases this requires enabling the 'netcf' USE flag (currently unavailable).
- wireshark-plugins Build the net-analyzer/wireshark plugin for the Libvirt RPC protocol
- xen Support management of Xen virtualisation (app-emulation/xen)
- zfs Enable ZFS backend storage sys-fs/zfs
