When automatically adding a NUMA node (qemuDomainDefNumaAutoAdd()) the memory size of the node is computed as: total_memory - sum(memory devices) And we have a nice helper for that: virDomainDefGetMemoryInitial() so it looks logical to just call it. Except, this code runs in post parse callback, i.e. memory sizes were not validated and it may happen that the sum is greater than the total memory. This would be caught by virDomainDefPostParseMemory() but that runs only after driver specific callbacks (i.e. after qemuDomainDefNumaAutoAdd()) and because the domain config was changed and memory was increased to this huge number no error is caught. So let's do what virDomainDefGetMemoryInitial() would do, but with error checking.

Libvirt API for virtualization
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.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
