Yeah, definitely changing the order of the conditions makes sense. I'll reconsider also the arch check, but I'm inclined to retain the 'return early' semantics here. > > + > > + /* Strip the <acpi/> feature only for non-fresh configs, in order to still > > + * produce an error if the feature is present in a newly defined one. > > + * > > + * The use of the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_ABI_UPDATE looks counter-intuitive, > > + * but it's used only in qemuDomainCreateXML/qemuDomainDefineXMLFlags APIs > > + * */ > > + if (parseFlags & VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_ABI_UPDATE) > > + return; > > Scoping this to migration only potentially enforces managements tools using > libvirt to change their previously working code creating domains. As this Well yes, that was the intention. I've originally outlined this intention in v1 where I've stated that the drawback of the patch is that it does not retain such check.
