Yep, I think that is fine. We primarily want to avoid making
libxlBuildDomainConfig difficult to call from the unit tests. I realize we don't
currently do that, but the eventual plan is to test the conversion of
virDomainDef to libxl_domain_config. danpb did some initial work on that quite
some time ago, see commit 5da28f24.
Ah nice to know, I wasn't aware of that work. This cover letter
(
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-May/msg01102.html) explains it
all too. What I am in this patch is clearly opposite the effort of commit
5da28f24 and a6abdbf. But now I am not sure if what I proposed in my earlier
paragrah is any different: we can probably get away with a mock of
libxlDriverConfig but not sure. In the end sounds like just adding channelDir to
the function arguments might end up being better?
