Yeah, thing is, this bug depends on how QEMU behaves (namely order in
which it parses arguments). Libvirt produced "correct" output (in sense
that devices that need to be there are there). So unless we are starting
QEMU we won't notice the QEMU behavior.
Think of this in a different way, if QEMU started parsing arguments in
different order (highly improbable, but let's assume that for a while).
Even if I added test case as you suggest, our test suite would not
notice anything different, and yet - users would be unable to start
their guests.
But maybe I'm missing something and we might get something valuable from
such test? What was your thinking?
I was imagining some change happening in the future under the
assumption that memory devices will only ever be plugged into
pci(e).0: the current test suite would not catch that, but if we had
at least one case in which a memory device is plugged into a
different bus then we'd have a chance of noticing.
Maybe that's a bit far-fetched, but even though the potential gain
would be small the effort needed to obtain it would also be small
(something along the lines of the diff below), so overall it seems
like a decent deal to me :)
I agree completely with you that we can't have a proper test for the
issue that your patch fixed without actually running QEMU.
