What if you don't have any <memoryBacking/>? I like these patches, but I'm not certainly sure about: a) domain XML (in the past we used to require an ACK on schema change from one of the Dans) b) the location for qemu to create its mmaped files (patch 3/3). cfg->libDir looks very suspicious. I have the patches applied locally with all the changes I've pointed out applied. If we have answers to both of the questions, I can push these.
