[1] [2] QEMU has pl031 and pl061 devices in addition to pl011, but no pl022 as far as I can tell. > How about we introduce another attribute/element that would specify the > exact model of the serial device and it would be optional, libvirt would > be able to choose the model if none is specified. That would have precedents in eg. PCI controllers, where the <model> subelement contains the hypervisor-specific device name whereas the 'model' attribute of the <controller> element contains a more generic name... You might have just convinced me :) Of course that would lead to duplicated information in the existing cases of ISA, USB and PCI, but I guess we can live with that. > I was no able to find anything about s390 and its sclp/sclplm consoles > but it's the same case.
