Clearly. Note that it's discarded silently, with no error message. According to https://askubuntu.com/questions/307066/i-cant-add-domain-type-kvm-xmlnsqemu-http-libvirt-org-schemas-domain-qe#458370 the namespace is discarded if it's not used, but the attempt to use it is what gives the error from virsh: error: (domain_definition):5: error parsing attribute name <qemu:arg value='-object'/> I presume that's because the namespace isn't being found at the URL, but that's just a guess as there's no explicit indication.. > (2) is in the documentation https://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html (under > "Pass-through of arbitrary qemu commands") so it is valid even if > there's no backing page. I know it's in the documentation. Either the documentation is wrong or there's something else missing. poc _______________________________________________ vfio-users mailing list vfio-users@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/vfio-users
