I tried to figure out what emptyBackingString is about, when it might
be used and stuff. But I couldn't find anything about it.

The only thing I could find were some in-the-wild VMX files that used
emptyBackingString as the filename for a client-device backed CDROM
device. But client-devices are a special kind of beast as their data
doesn't come from a file or a local physical device but is send to the
VM from what ever vSphere client app the user happens to use. But this
is something libvirt will probably never support, anyway.

So dealing with emptyBackingString for cdrom-image devices only is
probably good enough for now.

This is in an if block with this condition

if (device == VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_DEVICE_DISK)

There is no point in dealing with cdrom-image related stuff in a
harddisk section. Just drop this hunk from the patch. Also this hunk
results in wrong VMX to XML formatting. See broken test cases below.

There is a big if case before this hunk that catches several CDROM
related case. it also needs to handle the case STREQ(fileName,
"emptyBackingString") to ignore it for this call of the parse
function.

You made the parse function accept emptyBackingString for cdrom-image
only. But here you output emptyBackingString for every file backed
device, nut just cdrom-image.

The new else branch needs to check for this condition: def->device ==
VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_DEVICE_CDROM

The VMX file specified a CDROM device, but the XML shows it as a harddisk.

Again, the VMX file specified a CDROM device, but the XML shows it as
a harddisk. This comes from the logic error in the parse function
mention above.

ACK, with those things fixed. I attached a diff to be applied on top
of this patch with the suggested changes.
