I guess I was under the impression that post parse callbacks were to be
used when we didn't have all the information about a relationship
between say a disk and controller.
In this case, the attribute is only supported on the controller that has
been defined using "virtio-scsi" or "virtio-ccw". Since those weren't
"discover-able" based on some other relationship, thus checking at parse
time was better.
IDC either way, but I think (without too much digging), that would mean
a change to qemuDomainDeviceDefPostParse in the following if:
if (dev->type == VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_CONTROLLER) {
in order to add a check such as
if (cont->type == VIR_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER_TYPE_USB &&
cont->iothread &&
cont->model != VIR_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER_MODEL_SCSI_VIRTIO_SCSI)
Is there anyone else that has a preference/thought where the check
should go?
Tks -
