Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2 03/14] qemu_hotplug: pull qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList out of qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive

qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive() is called from two places in qemu_driver.c, and qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() is called from the end of qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive(), which is now in qemu_hotplug.c This patch replaces the single call to qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() with two calls to it immediately after return from qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive(). This is only done if the return from that function is exactly 0, in order to exactly preserve previous behavior. Removing that one call from qemuDomainDetachDeviceList() will permit us to call it from the test driver hotplug test, replacing the separate calls to qemuDomainDetachDeviceDiskLive(), qemuDomainDetachChrDevice(), qemuDomainDetachShmemDevice() and qemuDomainDetachWatchdog(). We want to do this so that part of the common functionality of those three functions (and the rest of the device-specific Detach functions) can be pulled up into qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive() without breaking the test. (This is done in the next patch). NB: Almost certainly this is "not the best place" to call qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() (actually, it is provably the *wrong* place), since it's purpose is to retrieve an "up to date" list of aliases for all devices from qemu, and if the guest OS hasn't yet processed the detach request, the now-being-removed device may still be on that list. It would arguably be better to instead call qemuDomainUpdateDevicesList() later during the response to the DEVICE_DELETED event for the device. But removing the call from the current point in the detach could have some unforeseen ill effect due to changed timing, so the change to move it into qemuDomainRemove*Device() will be done in a separate patch (in order to make it easily revertible in case it causes a regression).

Signed-off-by: Laine Stump <laine(a)laine.org&gt; --- Change from V1: * Added the big explanation above about why I'm not completely changing behavior by waiting unt after DEVICE_DELETED to call qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() * Only call qemuDomainUpdateDeviceList() if the Detach function returned *exactly* 0, since there are cases where it could return > 0, and the previous behavior was to not call it in those cases.
