The vmx file parsing code was reporting errors when parsing floppy.fileName entries if the filename didn't end in .flp. There is no such restriction in ESX; even using the GUI to configure floppy filenames you can specify any arbitrary file with any extension. Fix by changing the vmx parsing code so that it uses the floppy.fileType value to determine whether floppy.fileName refers to a block device or a regular file. Also remove code that would have generated an error if no floppy.fileName was specified. This is not an error either. Updated the floppy tests in vmx2xmltest.c and xml2vmxtest.c.
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.

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
