I am trying to deploy openstack on xen hypervisor.Since XenSever or XCP is not available on our customized virtulization platform. We decide to use libvirt on xen as a middleware operating the xen hypervisor. But when I try to boot a instance , xen failed to response and I find the error in my nova.log as follows:

It seems that libvirt doesn't support virNWFilterDefineXML on xen,Is there any good solutions? Or how much work should be done to add this function to libvirt?
I would take it into consideration seriously if I could fix this problem
