Thanks very much! Still two places to confirm:

No need for this comment - this is standard practice for every source

You're using this later to determine whether to use pci-back
vs pci-stub. 
I think it it would be preferrable to have the drivers pass
in the name of their desired stub driver instead.


I'm afraid there are some problems:
Currently there are two places:
 1. if  <driver name=xx /> is not specified in pci hostdev .xml, use default stub driver. But to 'libxl' and 'qemu', the default stub driver is different (pciback vs pci-stub), so, need to check hypervisor driver name to decide default stub dirver name.
 2. in detach-device, for 'qemu/kvm', it needs to check 'kvm_assigned_device', waiting for device cleanup. For 'libxl', it doesn't. So, need to check hypervisor driver name to add the extra processing.

Besides, to 'qemu', not only the 'pci-stub' case, it could be 'pci-stub' or 'vfio'. To prepare domain hostdevs, just could not pass ONE stub driver name simply to virHostdev API (e.g, virHostdevPrepareDomainHostdevs).

Any suggestions?

You should be using virReportError here

You should free the partially initialized 'hostdevMgr' instance & all
its data

You should do

   if (virHostdevInitialize() < 0)
       return NULL;

I wonder if we should get rid of the mutex locks in
the PCI / USB device list objects, and instead have
a single lock on the virHostdevManagerPtr instance.

I noticed in qemu_hostdev.c, originally it used single driver lock, later changed to use pci/usb list object lock. Do you think a single lock is still preferred? If yes, I'll update.

I know you are just following existing code design, but I consider it
pretty bad practice to store pointers to parameters that are passed
in. You can never be sure when someone is using to use this API
in the future with a string that they free sooner than we expect.

Much much safer to strdup the parameters.

Strdup'ing the parameters in a getter method is odd practice
and this method didn't do that before.

Same comment as previous method.
