That is before this patch does the path show up on the command line (no, I believe) and after? (no, of course). Look at commit id 1a538a07c which implemented this for domain/conf/xml and commit id 971f5f229 which generates the command line. All your change does is not parse the path for anything other than PASSTHROUGH leaving no way for a consumer to know they generated incorrect XML. Since this is a config/xml error, then you'll need to modify: virDomainDeviceDefValidateInternal and the case VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_INPUT: to add a new call such as: return virDomainInputDefValidate(dev->data.input); where the virDomainInputDefValidate would have a similar switch as virDomainInputDefGetPath, but if it finds input->source.evdev "set" for MOUSE, TABLET, or KBD, then an error should be generated, e.g.: virReportError(VIR_ERR_XML_ERROR, "%s", _("setting source evdev path only supported for " "passthrough input devices")); return -1; If a domain is created/defined/started using the bad XML format, then an error would be generated. For a running domain with bad XML it won't disappear. John -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
