[libvirt-users] Descriptions of mdev types?
Hi, when retrieving an mdev device info using `virsh nodedev-dumpxml' or
the libvirt API, something like the following is returned:
<capability type='mdev_types'>
<type id='nvidia-210'>
<name>GRID M60-2B4</name>
<deviceAPI>vfio-pci</deviceAPI>
<availableInstances>4</availableInstances>
</type>
...
</capability>
Besides device_api, available_instances and (optional) `name',
`description' of the given mdev type may be optionally provided in
/sys/.../mdev_supported_types/... for each of the available mdev types.
I can see in the sources that libvirt doesn't try to retrieve it -- is
it intentionally or is it just an omission? If the latter, could it be
added, please? It looks like a useful piece of information for the user
to get an idea what the given mdev type means.
Thanks,
Milan
