For example: The parent device of an mdev needs to be bound to a vfio device driver. Without it the device ends up without the capability to create mdevs. If this driver binding is not persisted (e.g. with setting up driverctl) but instead the device is just manually being rebound to a vfio device driver than after reboot neither the mdev capability on the parent device nor the mdev device as a child device will be existing. A user calling nodedev-info before the reboot gets on the parent device Persistent: yes Autostart: yes and on the mdev device Persistent: yes Autostart: yes After a reboot he ends up with with nodedev-info on the parent device Persistent: yes Autostart: yes and the mdev device does not exist.

I suggest to use three states like yes, no, unknown or not showing Persistent and Autostart on devices that libvirt does not manage/know about their persistence and autostart configuration.
