The current code was a little bit odd. At first we've removed all possible implicit input devices from domain definition to add them later back if there was any graphics device defined while parsing XML description. That's not all, while formating domain definition to XML description we at first ignore any input devices with bus different to USB and VIRTIO and few lines later we add implicit input devices to XML. This seems to me as a lot of code for nothing. This patch may look to be more complicated than original approach, but this is a preferred way to modify/add driver specific stuff only in those drivers and not deal with them in common parsing/formating functions. The update is to add those implicit input devices into config XML to follow the real HW configuration visible by guest OS. There was also inconsistence between our behavior and QEMU's in the way, that in QEMU there is no way how to disable those implicit input devices for x86 architecture and they are available always, even without graphics device. This applies also to XEN hypervisor. VZ driver already does its part by putting correct implicit devices into live XML. Signed-off-by: Pavel Hrdina <phrdina@redhat.com>
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
