Hi Daniel
can you provide floppy.xml content too to test the problem ?
I attach the XML file which I used by the test. Thanks, Masayuki Sunou. In message <20070601135415.GE9279@redhat.com> "Re: [Libvir] [PATCH] Fix strange error message in virsh attach-device" "Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>" wrote:

Hi
Now, virsh attach-device displays the following messages when "device" attribute of "disk" element is "floppy" in XML.
# virsh attach-device HVM_RH4_file floppy.xml libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err 'Invalid Configuration: XendConfig: @\x14\xce not a valid device type') error: Failed to attach device from floppy.xml
can you provide floppy.xml content too to test the problem ?
This patch fixes this strange error message displaying "@\x14\xce".
okay, buffer problem.
Description of this patch VirDomainParseXMLDiskDesc() returns 0 without putting data in virBuffer, when "floppy" is set. Therefore, virParseXMLDevice() returns no initialized data, and xenDaemonAttachDevice() passes Xen this data. Because virDomainParseXMLDesc() works wrong when this patch changes return value of VirDomainParseXMLDiskDesc(),this patch fixes virParseXMLDevice() as follows. - Initialize data - Return error if data does not change. As a result, xenDaemonAttachDevice() doesn't pass strange data to Xen, and Xen doesn't return strange error message.

buf.use = 0 means we are using 0 bytes of the buffer. That's the semantic of buffer usage, if you really want to make it zero terminated, just use buf.content[0] = 0;

use buf->use instead of strlen(buf.content)
If you provide the XML to reproduce it I could double-check this,
thanks,
Daniel
