Description of problem: Missing flags parameter for get_xml_description in perl-Sys-Virt man page Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-Sys-Virt-0.9.4-2.el6 libvirt-0.9.4-16.el6.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.195.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: everytimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. install perl-Sys-Virt # yum install perl-Sys-Virt 2. check usage for get_xml_description function # man /usr/share/man/man3/Sys::Virt::Domain.3pm.gz|col -b|grep -2 get_xml_description current live config. my $xml = $dom->get_xml_description() Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the domain’s configuration Actual results: The description for get_xml_description is as follows: my $xml = $dom->get_xml_description() Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the domain’s configuration Expected results: It should be as follows: my $xml = $dom->get_xml_description($flags=0) Additional info: $dom->get_xml_description will call C API virDomainGetXMLDesc, which contains a 'flags' parameter, it looks like this: virDomainGetXMLDesc(virDomainPtr domain, unsigned int flags) @flags is an OR'ed set of virDomainXMLFlags, and it may be VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE or VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU. So it need users can change flags value to meet different requirement.
