RE: qemu fail to parse command line with "-pcidevice 00:19.0"

OK, this new way can work when create guest with static assignment.
But how to hot add a pci device to guest? the old hot add command "pci_add pci_addr=auto host host=00:19.0" has the same parse error.

BTW: if we use add "-net none" in qemu command, guest can not be created and nothing error printed.

Do you have plan to fix this parse issue?

Thanks,
Xudong

The bug is in add_assigned_device():

    r = get_param_value(id, sizeof(id), "id", arg);
    if (!r)
        r = get_param_value(id, sizeof(id), "name", arg);
    if (!r)
        r = get_param_value(id, sizeof(id), "host", arg);

We end up with invalid ID "00:19.0".

Is there a technical reason why we must have an ID?  I doubt it.

Work-around: -device pci-assign,host=00:19.1

See the last section of docs/qdev-device-use.txt for details.
