Re: [libvirt PATCH 2/3] rpc: avoid name lookup when dispatching node device APIs

The node device APIs are a little unusual because we don't use a "remote_nonnull_node_device" object on the wire, instead we just have a "remote_string" for the device name. This meant dispatcher code generation needed special cases. In doing so we mistakenly used the virNodeDeviceLookupByName() API which gets dispatched into the driver, instead of get_nonnull_node_device() which directly populates a virNodeDevicePtr object. This wasn't a problem with monolithic libvirtd, as the virNodeDeviceLookupByName() API call was trivially satisfied by the registered driver, albeit with an extra (undesirable) authentication check. With the split daemons, the call to virNodeDeviceLookupByName() fails in virtqemud, because the node device driver obviously doesn't exist in that daemon. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
