In a few places (e.g. device attach/detach/update) we are given a
device XML, parse it but then need a copy of parsed data so that
the original can be passed to function handling the request over
inactive XML and the copy is then passed to function handling the
operation over live XML. Note, both functions consume passed
device on success, hence the need for copy.
The problem is in combination of how the copy is obtained and
where is passed. The copy is done by calling
virDomainDeviceDefCopy() which does only inactive copy, i.e. no
live information is copied over (e.g. no aliases).
Then, this copy (inactive XML effectively) is passed to function
handling live part of the operation (e.g.
qemuDomainUpdateDeviceLive()) and the definition containing all
the juicy, live bits is passed to function handling inactive part
of the operation (e.g. qemuDomainUpdateDeviceConfig()).
This is rather suboptimal, and XML copies should be passed to
their respective functions.
s/suboptimal/incorrect/ :-)
It's funny that the comment at the top of virDomainDeviceDefCopy
explicitly says that it's a copy of the inactive/config object, and that
every single place that function is called, its result is being put into
the live domain :-P
At first I was concerned that there were no matching chunks for
qemuDomainAttachDeviceFlags(), but then I took a look and realized that
function parses the XML twice instead of parsing it once and making a
copy (and I suppose I should mention the moment of cringe when, while
looking at that function, I came across some piece of ugly treachery I
had added to make sure the MAC addresses match between the copies. It
seems like this cringe moment happens every time I open a file these
days...)
