The current code was a little bit odd. At first we've removed all
possible implicit input devices from domain definition to add them later
back if there was any graphics device defined while parsing XML
description. That's not all, while formating domain definition to XML
description we at first ignore any input devices with bus different to
USB and VIRTIO and few lines later we add implicit input devices to XML.
This seems to me as a lot of code for nothing. This patch may look
to be more complicated than original approach, but this is a preferred
way to modify/add driver specific stuff only in those drivers and not
deal with them in common parsing/formating functions.
The update is to add those implicit input devices into config XML to
follow the real HW configuration visible by guest OS.
There was also inconsistence between our behavior and QEMU's in the way,
that in QEMU there is no way how to disable those implicit input devices
for x86 architecture and they are available always, even without graphics
device. This applies also to XEN hypervisor. VZ driver already does its
part by putting correct implicit devices into live XML.

This patch resolves a situation where the same "<target dev='$name'...>"
can be used for multiple disks in the domain.
While the $name is "mostly" advisory regarding the expected order that
the disk is added to the domain and not guaranteed to map to the device
name in the guest OS, it still should be unique enough such that other
domblk* type operations can be performed.
Without the patch, the domblklist will list the same Target twice:
$ virsh domblklist $dom
Target Source
------------------------------------------------
sda /var/lib/libvirt/images/file.qcow2
sda /var/lib/libvirt/images/file.img
Additionally, getting domblkstat, domblkerror, domblkinfo, and other block*
type calls will not be able to reference the second target.
Fortunately, hotplug disallows adding a "third" sda value:
$ qemu-img create -f raw /var/lib/libvirt/images/file2.img 10M
$ virsh attach-disk $dom /var/lib/libvirt/images/file2.img sda
error: Failed to attach disk
error: operation failed: target sda already exists
$
BUT, it since 'sdb' doesn't exist one would get the following on the same
hotplug attempt, but changing to use 'sdb' instead of 'sda'
$ virsh attach-disk $dom /var/lib/libvirt/images/file2.img sdb
error: Failed to attach disk
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'device_add': Duplicate ID 'scsi0-0-1' for device
$
Since we cannot fix this issue at parsing time, the best that can be done so
as to not "lose" a domain is to make the check prior to starting the guest
with the results as follows:
$ virsh start $dom
error: Failed to start domain $dom
error: XML error: target 'sda' duplicated for disk sources '/var/lib/libvirt/images/file.qcow2' and '/var/lib/libvirt/images/file.img'
$
Running 'make check' found a few more instances in the tests where this
duplicated target dev value was being used. These also exhibited some
duplicated 'id=' values (negating the uniqueness argument of aliases) in
the corresponding .args file and of course the *xmlout version of a few
input XML files.
<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'/>
is auto-added to pc* machine types.
Without this controller PCI bus 0 is not available and
no PCI addresses are assigned by default.
Since older libvirt supported PCI bus 0 even without
this controller, it is removed from the XML when migrating.
Like "rawio", "sgio" is only allowed for block disk of device
type "lun".
It doesn't default disk->sgio to "filtered" when parsing, as
it won't be able to distinguish explicitly requested "filtered"
and a default "filtered" in driver then. We have to error out for
explicit request when the kernel doesn't support the new sysfs
knob "unpriv_sgio", however, for defaulted "filtered", we can
just ignore it if the kernel doesn't support "unpriv_sgio".
