If you try to create a guest with an invalid type or bus, you'll see
something like the following error:
<input type='invalid' bus='ps2'/>
libvir: Domain Config error : internal error unknown input device type
'invalid'
error: Failed to define domain from test
---------------
<input type='mouse' bus='invalid'/>
libvir: Domain Config error : internal error unknown input bus type
'invalid'
error: Failed to define domain from test
------------
If we're unable to get the expected values from the guest, then some
kind of error in libvirt has occurred. So setting the caption to
"Unknown bus Unknown device type" is a fall back in that case.
Does the
<input type='mouse' bus='xen'/> get assigned by default ?
Because, for Xen PV the values are getting assigned by default even
though the tc did not supply them .
Ex: check the vsxml output from the tc 41_cs_to_settingdefinestate.py.
The default values are not getting assigned for KVM though.
