when we use the Xen4.8.7(we compile from the source and install on SUSE 12 ), 
if we create the VM, we got the error information:

libxl: error: libxl_exec.c:118:libxl_report_child_exitstatus: 
/etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge online [8284] exited with error status 127
libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1461:domcreate_attach_devices: unable to add nic 
devices


our config file is(we called "xl create -c cfg" to create the vm) :
arch = 'x86_64'
#name = "sample_evn_win7_x64"
name = "aap_40"
memory = 1024
vcpus = 1
builder='hvm'
boot = "cd"
vif = [ "mac=18:C5:8A:15:C1:39,bridge=virbr0" ]
hap = 1
acpi = 1
altp2mhvm = 1
shadow_memory = 16
disk = [ 'tap:qcow2:/home/huawei/vm/win7_x64/win7_work40.qcow2,xvda,w' ]
vnc = 1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
usb=1
usbdevice = "tablet"

For libvirt question you need to ask on libvirt list.
