I'm wondering about generalizing this. eg what if there are
other device models where we want the ability to set a
revision. We don't really want to invent a new sub-elment
named after each device model
Not even a new attribute? :)
<revision virtio='0.9'/>
How about:
<revision type='virtio' version='0.9'/>
Both of those are quite repetative - we already know its virtio.
Most devices we have alrady include a <driver> or <model> sub-element,
so we should really just add a revision= attrbute to those existing
elements. For places which don't already have this we can add a new
<driver> element
Yeah, I was going to suggest <driver> as well.
The only thing missing would be the ability to specify multiple versions.
Also, it does make the parsing and formatting a bit awkward, since
<driver> has different parse/format functions for each device that uses
it (necessary due to the difference in possible attributes).
In spite of that, it would definitely look better from the outside.
