I mean - it would be nice to have unified options names for these commands, but I am afraid we can't change them. > e.g. "schedinfo", "vcpupin". > > And since the APIs are designed as: If no flag is specified, behaviour > is different depending on hypervisor, so virsh shouldn't do things like: > > if (virDomainIsActive(dom) == 1) > flags |= VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_LIVE; > > This patch removes codes like this, leave the determination for underly > hypervisor driver. > --- > tools/virsh.c | 242 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------- > 1 files changed, 178 insertions(+), 64 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/tools/virsh.c b/tools/virsh.c > index abc4614..4cd2e1a 100644 > --- a/tools/virsh.c > +++ b/tools/virsh.c > @@ -9738,7 +9738,9 @@ static const vshCmdInfo info_attach_device[] = { > static const vshCmdOptDef opts_attach_device[] = { > {"domain", VSH_OT_DATA, VSH_OFLAG_REQ, N_("domain name, id or uuid")}, > {"file", VSH_OT_DATA, VSH_OFLAG_REQ, N_("XML file")}, > - {"persistent", VSH_OT_BOOL, 0, N_("persist device attachment")}, > + {"config", VSH_OT_BOOL, 0, N_("affect next boot")}, > + {"live", VSH_OT_BOOL, 0, N_("affect running domain")}, > + {"current", VSH_OT_BOOL, 0, N_("affect current domain")}, Maybe it's a bit early morning for me, but I didn't get this description. We are always affecting current domain :) I would append 'status' word, resulting in "affect current domain status". This makes it clear for me. And maybe change description for 'vcpupin' command as well. But that could be a follow up patch. Otherwise looking good.
