Commit 887dd0d331 caused a small regression in NodeDeviceDetach in the libxl driver when the 'driver' parameter is not specified. E.g. # virsh nodedev-detach pci_0000_0a_10_0 error: Failed to detach device pci_0000_0a_10_0 error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown If the driver name is not specified, NULL is passed to virDomainDriverNodeDeviceDetachFlags, in which case virPCIDeviceSetStubDriver is never called to set the stub to pciback. Fix it by setting the driver to "xen" if it is not specified when invoking NodeDeviceDetach. Signed-off-by: Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Pavel Hrdina <phrdina@redhat.com>
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.
