A possible addition to this would be to force type=ioemu for all other models which would result in only emulated network device to be provided for an HVM guest on xen newer then XEND_CONFIG_MAX_VERS_NET_TYPE_IOEMU. No type would be configured when model is missing in domains XML. If you think this is a good idea, I'll prepare a second version of the patch.
Yes, but a slight variation - we need to maintain reasonable back compatability so there are 3 cases to support
- No model - use current behaviour which lets it setup both - xenpv - use only PV nic - other model - use the requested emulated nic
Yes, that was my intention.
Can you add a couple of test data files for this since its quite a complex area of conversion - you'll see we've already got the sexpr2xmltest.c and xml2sexprtest.c and xmconfigtest.c for Xen
Will do. Jirka
