There's something I don't understand -- it looks to me there's a
mismatch between the test case you provide (and its output), and what
the code part for it actually does.

Your XML has no index="" attribute.

Here "idx" is non-null only if the attribute is actually found, which
does not seem the case in the XML snippet above.

This looks wrong to me: UINT_MAX is the maximum value that is going to
fit into a 'unsigned int', so 'idxVal' will never be (even on error)
greater than that.

If the index must be non-negative, it looks like using virStrToLong_uip
instead of virStrToLong_ui could work fine in rejecting negative values
outright.

Considering this, I think the XML you used in your testsmost probably
has index="-1" as attribute -- can you please confirm?
