Hi Erik,
Changes looks good so far. I did some basic testing with these patches. I used above example snippet of hostdev element and it throws below error. Add a '/' before '>' and after uuid in address line.
error: (domain_definition):74: Opening and ending tag mismatch: address line 73 and source </source> ---------------^ Failed. Try again? [y,n,i,f,?]:
Thanks, Kirti
Oh, right, good catch. Thanks, Erik
