Hi, I was testing an under-development patch on upstream libvirt using domxml-to-native and domxml-from-native and realised that the domxml-from-native fails for a successfully generated qemu cmd line using domxml-to-native.

To isolate the issue, I tried generating the qemu cmd line for tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk-virtio.xml like this:

$virsh domxml-to-native qemu-argv tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk-virtio.xml > qemu-args

Now, when I try to generate the XML back for the same CLI, it fails:

$virsh domxml-from-native qemu-argv qem-args error: internal error missing index/unit/bus parameter in drive 'file=/dev/HostVG/QEMUGuest1,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,format=raw'

The domxml-from-native code has never been updated to cope with the -device / -drive paired syntax, hence this error. What makes you think it is a regression ? AFAIK, this can never have worked Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|
