oh, there is much much much code,it's too too too hard for me.

So,,,,,can i ask more question:use virt-manager create a domain,but with a result of "unsupported configuration:the ioh3420 controller is not supported in this qemu".since it's arm64 platform,and ioh3420 is a intel device.right?Why produce a intel device in arm64 platform?

So, can i delete the ioh3420 only by changing the code?info: i use the libvirt-2.0.0,virt-manager create doamin succeed;when i update to libvirt-3.2.0,the issue above happened. qemu is 2.3.0

Thanks!
