NACK, that function is not meant to return the default video ram size
of QEMU, but rather video ram size that libvirt will set by default.
For qxl, The
return value of that function is used to set ram and vram
attributes which
qemu doesn't care of. The proper and effective attribute is vgamem which
was set
to 16M already(commit#0e50246).
It causes the strange attribute list in guest xml:
<video>
<model type='qxl' ram='65536' vram='65536'
vgamem='16384' heads='1'/>
......
</video>
and virt-manager also shows the inproper video ram size for qxl, It
shows 64MB
qxl video ram size in guest detailed page, but guest reports only 16MB.
So should I keep 64MB in virDomainVideoDefaultRAM and set vgamem by
virDomainVideoDefaultRAM?
Or something else?
