Some services, such as Nova, check whether device was not found by errror messages "not found". [1]
error
This patch unify logs of qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive, which will be helpful.

Something about a tool that parses the error message(s) looking for a specific message string in English and needing to alter libvirt sources to match that tools' needs strikes me as incorrect and a "slippery slope" to follow.
I'm not in favor of this because we'll be constantly chasing these types of bugs to match some other tools' (what I think is) incorrect means to handle errors.
Agree. But we don't have enough error code to cover all of scenario. For qemuDomainDetachDeviceDiskLive, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED can be "disk not found", also can be "cannot hot unplug multifunction PCI device" in the following call of qemuDomainDetachVirtioDiskDevice. So the tools powered by libvirt had to find a workaround by analyzing error messages... Regards, - Chen
