The reason is that we create a new scsi controller but we do not update /var/run/libvirt/qemu/domain.xml.
I agree that this is a bug, and that this patch is one way to solve things; however, I'm not convinced it's necessarily the right way.
Should we be instead rolling back and undoing the new controller creation if adding the device fails?
Should the successful addition of a controller save domain state at that point, even though that means two saves instead of one if this succeeds here?
But, if others agree with this approach, then ACK to the code.
We may forget this patch. Ping again Anyone has a better way to solve this bug?
