VMware ESX does not always set the "serialX.fileType" tag in VMX files. The default value for this tag is "device", and when adding a new serial port of this type VMware will omit the fileType tag. This caused libvirt to fail to parse the VMX file. Fixed by making this tag optional and using "device" as a default value. Also updated vmx2xmltest to test for this case.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
