True you have to parse 3 attributes instead of just 1, but IMHO it
pays off elsewhere in the patch. eg in the QEMU driver's PCI disk
attach code, this is rather wierd, unless you realize that 'pci_addr'
field here is a string of the format 'X:Y:Z', and not including a
function number.
+ const char *slot = strrchr(detach->pci_addr, ':');
+ if (!slot) {
+ qemudReportError(conn, NULL, NULL, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED,
+ _("Invalid PCI address for device '%s' : %s"),
+ detach->dst, detach->pci_addr);
+ goto cleanup;
+ }
+ ++slot;
+ if (virAsprintf(&cmd, "pci_del 0 %s", slot) < 0) {
If we stored it raw, then you'd just have 1 line
+ if (virAsprintf(&cmd, "pci_del 0 %s", detach->pci_addr.slot) < 0) {
