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.

Laine Stump e5aecc2f80 conf: log error when incorrect PCI root controller is added to domain
libvirt may automatically add a pci-root or pcie-root controller to a
domain, depending on the arch/machinetype, and it hopefully always
makes the right decision about which to add (since in all cases these
controllers are an implicit part of the virtual machine).

But it's always possible that someone will create a config that
explicitly supplies the wrong type of PCI controller for the selected
machinetype. In the past that would lead to an error later when
libvirt was trying to assign addresses to other devices, for example:

  XML error: PCI bus is not compatible with the device at
  0000:00:02.0. Device requires a PCI Express slot, which is not
  provided by bus 0000:00

(that's the error message that appears if you replace the pcie-root
controller in a Q35 domain with a pci-root controller).

This patch adds a check at the same place that the implicit
controllers are added (to ensure that the same logic is used to check
which type of pci root is correct). If a pci controller with index='0'
is already present, we verify that it is of the model that we would
have otherwise added automatically; if not, an error is logged:

  The PCI controller with index='0' must be " model='pcie-root' for
  this machine type, " but model='pci-root' was found instead.

         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.
