We cannot guarentee whether the active hotplugging will update the
persistent config or not, but if possible it should. Currenty XenD
appears to update the config from what I see, though haven't tested
it for real yet
Qemu doesn't update the persistent config, so should we add
this? Or
woutld it be better to add a new set of functions that have a flags
argument like VIRT_PERSIST (I think you suggested somehting like this
once) and leave the behaviour for attacheDevice/detachDevice undefined.
The current behaviour of attachDevice/detachDevice is a bit of a
nightmare for tools like virt-manager since it's the behaviour is by no
means hypervisor independent.
