Because reloading a PF driver with a different number of VFs doesn't result in any sort of event sent from udev to the libvirt node_device driver, libvirt's cache of that info can be out of date when a request arrives for the info about a device. To fix this, we refresh that data at the time of the dumpxml request, similar to what is already done for netdev link info and SCSI host capabilities. Since the same is true for iommu group information (for example, some other device in the same iommu group could have been detached from the host), we also create a function to update the iommu group info from sysfs, and a common function that does both. (a later patch will call this common function from the udev and hal backends). This resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=981546
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.
