If a SCSI hostdev is included in an initial domain XML, without a
corresponding controller statement, one is created silently when the
guest is booted.
When hotplugging a SCSI hostdev, a presumption is that the controller
is already present in the domain either from the original XML, or via
an earlier hotplug.
[root@xxxxxxxx ~]# cat disk.xml
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi'>
<source>
<adapter name='scsi_host0'/>
<address bus='0' target='3' unit='1088438288'/>
</source>
</hostdev>
[root@xxxxxxxx ~]# virsh attach-device guest01 disk.xml
error: Failed to attach device from disk.xml
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'device_add': Bus 'scsi0.0' not found
Since the infrastructure is in place, we can also create a controller
silently for use by the hotplugged hostdev device.

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.
