The nec-usb-xhci device (which is a USB3 controller) has always presented itself as a PCI device when plugged into a legacy PCI slot, and a PCIe device when plugged into a PCIe slot, but libvirt has always auto-assigned it to a legacy PCI slot. This patch changes that behavior to auto-assign to a PCIe slot on systems that have pcie-root (e.g. Q35 and aarch64/virt). Since we don't yet auto-create pcie-*-port controllers on demand, this means a config with an nec-xhci USB controller that has no PCI address assigned will also need to have an otherwise-unused pcie-*-port controller specified: <controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/> <controller type='usb' model='nec-xhci'/> (this assumes there is an otherwise-unused slot on pcie-root to accept the pcie-root-port)
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.
