If a pci address had a function number out of range, the error message would be: Insufficient specification for PCI address which is logged by virDevicePCIAddressParseXML() after virDevicePCIAddressIsValid returns a failure. This patch enhances virDevicePCIAddressIsValid() to optionally report the error itself (since it is the place that decides which part of the address is "invalid"), and uses that feature when calling from virDevicePCIAddressParseXML(), so that the error will be more useful, e.g.: Invalid PCI address function=0x8, must be <= 7 Previously, virDevicePCIAddressIsValid didn't check for the theoretical limits of domain or bus, only for slot or function. While adding log messages, we also correct that ommission. (The RNG for PCI addresses already enforces this limit, which by the way means that we can't add any negative tests for this - as far as I know our domainschematest has no provisions for passing XML that is supposed to fail). Note that virDevicePCIAddressIsValid() can only check against the absolute maximum attribute values for *any* possible PCI controller, not for the actual maximums of the specific controller that this device is attaching to; fortunately there is later more specific validation for guest-side PCI addresses when building the set of assigned PCI addresses. For host-side PCI addresses (e.g. for <hostdev> and for network device pools), we rely on the error that will be logged when it is found that the device doesn't actually exist. This resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1004596 (cherry picked from commit f8fe8f03455783afcd62d79db7ce4120f514c629)
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.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
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.
