libvirt documentation for channels with type 'spicevmc' says that the 'target' child node has: "an optional attribute name controls how the guest will have access to the channel, and defaults to name='com.redhat.spice.0'." However, this default value is never set in libvirt code base, there's only a check in qemu_command.c to error out if the name attribute doesn't have the expected value (if it's set). This commit sets a default target name for spicevmc channels during the domain configuration parsing so that the code agrees with the documentation. --- src/conf/domain_conf.c | 7 +++++++ 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/conf/domain_conf.c b/src/conf/domain_conf.c index d5def1c..9012462 100644 --- a/src/conf/domain_conf.c +++ b/src/conf/domain_conf.c @@ -5218,6 +5218,13 @@ virDomainChrDefParseXML(virCapsPtr caps, goto error; } else { def->source.data.spicevmc = VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_SPICEVMC_VDAGENT; + if (!def->target.name) { + def->target.name = strdup("com.redhat.spice.0"); + if (!def->target.name) { + virReportOOMError(); + goto error; + } + } } } -- 1.7.7.6 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
