[PATCH v2] qemu: Fix domxml-to-native command failure
Posted by Zhenzhong Duan 2 years, 10 months ago 
virsh command domxml-to-native failed with below error but start
command succeed for same domain xml.

"internal error: invalid PCI passthrough type 'default'"

If host PCI device's driver attribute isn't defined in domain xml,
qemu driver will choose a proper value based on host environment
before starting qemu process. But this is missed in domxml-to-native
command, add the same logic so domxml-to-native could pass and replace
the relevant code in qemuHostdevPreparePCIDevicesCheckSupport() with
an error report.

Ha! I've found one path where the backend is not set:
qemuDomainAttachHostPCIDevice(). So we need a bit more code movement.
But after that, this branch is effectively a dead code.

In fact, if we move things a bit a lot of code will become dead. So let
me respin with more patches.

Oh, I see, the hot plug case.
