https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1434451 It comes handy for management application to be able to have a per-device label so that it can uniquely identify devices it cares about. The advantage of this approach is that we don't have to generate aliases at define time (non trivial amount of work and problems). The only thing we do is parse the user supplied tag and format it back. For instance: <disk type='block' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source dev='/dev/HostVG/QEMUGuest1'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> <alias user='myDisk0'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/> </disk> Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@xxxxxxxxxx> --- An alternative approach to: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2017-September/msg00765.html Honestly, I prefer this one as it's simpler and we don't have to care about devices changing their aliases on cold plug. I mean, on cold (un-)plug we'd have to regenerate the aliases so it might be hard to track certain device. But with this approach, it's no problem. Also, I'm not completely convinced about the name of @user attribute. So I'm open for suggestions. docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 13 +++++++--- src/conf/device_conf.c | 1 + src/conf/device_conf.h | 1 + src/conf/domain_conf.c | 20 ++++++++++----- tests/genericxml2xmlindata/generic-user-alias.xml | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/genericxml2xmltest.c | 2 ++ 6 files changed, 59 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/genericxml2xmlindata/generic-user-alias.xml diff --git a/docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng b/docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng index bac371ea3..69c121ce9 100644 --- a/docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng +++ b/docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng @@ -5864,9 +5864,16 @@ </define> <define name='alias'> <element name='alias'> - <attribute name='name'> - <ref name='aliasName'/> - </attribute> + <optional> + <attribute name='name'> + <ref name='aliasName'/> + </attribute> + </optional> + <optional> + <attribute name='user'> + <ref name='aliasName'/> + </attribute> + </optional> </element> <empty/> </define> diff --git a/src/conf/device_conf.c b/src/conf/device_conf.c index d69f94fad..ced5db123 100644 --- a/src/conf/device_conf.c +++ b/src/conf/device_conf.c @@ -57,6 +57,7 @@ void virDomainDeviceInfoClear(virDomainDeviceInfoPtr info) { VIR_FREE(info->alias);
