  that you can't do, you must add at the end of the enum to preserve the
values for previous items in the enum.

  Hum, maybe we should do like for vbox driver, use a subdir to
limit the amount of files in the src/ directory, so I suggest using
   phyp/phyp_driver.c and phyp/phyp_driver.h

  I guess copying what was done for vbox/ files would be fine.

   phyp/phyp_driver.h

  we should probably use lower case there but it's equivalent.

  That looks a bit weird, I think in those 3 cases I would goto an
  error: label directly and return the error value.

   It's always a bit nasty to sleep like that. Is there really now way
to use something like poll or select instead ? In average you're gonna
be waken up multiple time while waiting for your answer while the kernel
could instead wake you up exactly when you have the data.

   Huh ? you're supposed to get the resulting char *, and then free it
   later once you're done with the data. Here youre just leaking memory
   I'm afraid

 same thing for most of the commands in that file.

  This can't be a const char *really or  you're using a temporary buffer
I'm afraid you're loosing memory here

  and if you free that memeory you would just use a freed string here,

  I guess you really need to clean up how you build those routines,
make clear error path and do more anylysis of the allocations. I would
also suggest to use the virStrToLong_i routine instead of calling atoi()
directly.

  I would at least comment those constants.
