Commit 6879be48 moved adding of an implicit video device after XML
parsing. As a result, libxlDomainDeviceDefPostParse() is no longer
called to set the default vram when adding an implicit device.
Commit 6879be48 assumes virDomainVideoDefaultRAM() will set the
default vram, but it returns 0 if the domain virtType is
VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_XEN. Attempting to start an HVM domain with vram=0
results in
error: unsupported configuration: videoram must be at least 4MB for CIRRUS
The default vram setting for Xen HVM domains depends on the device
model used (qemu-xen vs qemu-traditional), hence setting the
default is deferred to libxlDomainDeviceDefPostParse().
This patch addresses the problem during creation of the video
device. If vram is 0, it is assumed unset and the default
(depending on qemu-xen vs qemu-traditional) is applied.
Hmm, What about letting (xen) libxl decide that? If vram is set to 0 we would
set video_memkb to LIBXL_MEMKB_DEFAULT and have (xen) libxl decide the defaults
and latter update def with the value libxl set back? Altough these values are
well established defaults, these might change on libxl in which case prevent
domain creation.
