When deleting the vhostuserclient interface, OVS prompts that the interface does not exist, Through the XML file, I found that the "target dev" has a '\n', results in an XML parsing error. XML file: <target dev='vm-20ac9c030a47 '/> That is because 'ovs-vsctl' returns a newline result, always come with a '\n', and the vircommandrun function puts it in ifname. So virNetDevOpenvswitchGetVhostuserIfname should remove '\n' from ifname.
