Actually, attaching a memory device should do something else than
calling libxl_set_memory_target(). It should add a guest-visible memory
device into the DIMM slot (especially when it is model='dimm'). I'm no
libxl expert, but the function you are using is just setting the memory
IMHO and it is the same as if you would remove the check for:
newmem > virDomainDefGetMemoryTotal
in libxlDomainSetMemoryFlags()

Agree to use VIR_WARN(), will be updated.
I think definitely fail. Otherwise you succeed with something that the
user clearly did not want.

And it's said here as well, you are changing ballooning, which memory
hot-plug should not do.

Yes, that's necessary.

This code was from qemu:
7408 /* note that qemuDomainAttachMemory always consumes dev->data.memory
7409 * and dispatches DeviceAdded event on success */
7410 ret = qemuDomainAttachMemory(driver, vm,
7411 dev->data.memory);
7412 dev->data.memory = NULL;
But I also forgot to free mem in libxlDomainAttachMemory(), thank you for the reminding.
qemu uses it because it calls virDomainMemoryInsert() which steals the
pointer data. You are leaking the memory here. Yes, you can free the
data in libxlDomainAttachMemory(), but in case it is not needed (like in
qemu), it is just creating ugly code. Also looking at qemu's
implementation, there are bunch of safety checks and domain definition
updates which are definitely not done in this patch.
