RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description EricLee 2013-09-11 07:00:27 UTC 
Description of problem:
need add "interface" to virt-xml-validate manual page

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -qa libvirt qemu-kvm ; uname -r
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.400.el6.x86_64
libvirt-0.10.2-24.el6.x86_64
2.6.32-396.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
# man virt-xml-validate
....
       Valid schema names currently include

       "domain"
           The schema for the XML format used by guest domains configuration

       "network"
           The schema for the XML format used by virtual network configuration

       "storagepool"
           The schema for the XML format used by storage pool configuration

       "storagevol"
           The schema for the XML format used by storage volume descriptions

       "nodedev"
           The schema for the XML format used by node device descriptions

       "capability"
           The schema for the XML format used to declare driver capabilities
....

there is no "interface" in it, however we can use like this:
# cat eth1.xml
<interface type='ethernet' name='eth1'>
  <start mode='onboot'/>
  <mac address='00:15:17:62:ae:e8'/>
</interface>

# virt-xml-validate eth1.xml interface
eth1.xml validates

Actual results:
see description

Expected results:
should include interface

Additional info:
it is also reproduced both in rhel7 and upstream.

Comment 3 Jiri Denemark 2013-09-13 13:14:19 UTC 
"interface" is not the only schema missing. Fixed upstream by the following commits (in v1.1.2-120-g4583ccb):

    virt-xml-validate: add missing schemas
    
    We were failing to autoprobe which schema to use for several
    top-level XML elements.
    
    * tools/virt-xml-validate.in (TYPE): Recognize <domainsnapshot>,
    <filter>, and <secret>.

Comment 8 EricLee 2014-04-14 09:39:40 UTC 
Verified pass in libvirt-0.10.2-32.el6:

# man virt-xml-validate
.....

       "domainsnapshot"
           The schema for the XML format used by domain snapshot
           configuration
.....

       "nwfilter"
           The schema for the XML format used by network traffic filters

       "secret"
           The schema for the XML format used by secrets descriptions

       "interface"
           The schema for the XML format used by physical host interfaces

Have added above four schemas.
