If there is no mdevctl found during configure (my case), then MDEVCTL is going to be plain "mdevctl". Which is okay for the nodedev driver, because it uses virCommandRun() which uses virFindFileInPath() to get the real path at runtime. But for tests it won't fly. Alternativelly, if the mdevctl lived under say /bin or any other location than /usr/sbin the expected output would be different. In virnetdevbandwidthtest.c (which uses TC) I've worked around this by using TC directly to construct expected output. However, I guess we can safely assume that either mdevctl is present at build time so that its location is detected properly, or we hardcode its path. IOW, this needs to be squashed into 05/10: diff --git i/m4/virt-external-programs.m4 w/m4/virt-external- programs.m4 index bd3cb1f757..f642dcbf0e 100644 --- i/m4/virt-external-programs.m4 +++ w/m4/virt-external-programs.m4 @@ -65,7 +65,7 @@ AC_DEFUN([LIBVIRT_CHECK_EXTERNAL_PROGRAMS], [ AC_PATH_PROG([OVSVSCTL], [ovs-vsctl], [ovs-vsctl], [$LIBVIRT_SBIN_PATH]) AC_PATH_PROG([SCRUB], [scrub], [scrub], [$LIBVIRT_SBIN_PATH]) AC_PATH_PROG([ADDR2LINE], [addr2line], [addr2line], [$LIBVIRT_SBIN_PATH]) - AC_PATH_PROG([MDEVCTL], [mdevctl], [mdevctl], [$LIBVIRT_SBIN_PATH]) + AC_PATH_PROG([MDEVCTL], [mdevctl], [/usr/sbin/mdevctl], [$LIBVIRT_SBIN_PATH]) AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([DMIDECODE], ["$DMIDECODE"], [Location or name of the dmidecode program])

But it doesn't look like the directory is needed at all, is it?
