No useful error was being reported when an invalid character device
target type is specified in the domainXML. E.g.
...
<console type="pty">
<source path="/dev/pts/2"/>
<target type="kvm" port="0"/>
</console>
...
resulted in
error: Failed to define domain from x.xml
error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown
With this small patch, the error is more helpful
error: Failed to define domain from x.xml
error: XML error: unknown target type 'kvm' specified for character device
(cherry picked from commit 10a87145f73068e572d14d82a13df46c95960273)
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.
