No fault of this patch, but this makes me ask the question: what exactly are attachDevice and detachDevice supposed to do?

In the qemu driver, it is entirely hotplug/hotunplug, and deliberately fails on an inactive domain.

So to add a device with qemu, you need to edit XML? Reason alone for these methods to work on offline domains I think :) regards john
