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 of problem:
the reture value of API virNodeDevice.listCaps() is not correct
Version-Release number of selected component:
libvirt-1.1.1-29.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. find one rhel7 host, and check the libvirt python API
# python
Python 2.7.5 (default, Feb 11 2014, 07:46:25)
[GCC 4.8.2 20140120 (Red Hat 4.8.2-13)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import libvirt
>>> conn = libvirt.open('')
>>> node_obj = conn.nodeDeviceLookupByName('pci_0000_00_19_0')
>>> node_capabilities = node_obj.listCaps()
2. check the return value of API virNodeDevice.listCaps(), it's NULL.
>>> print node_capabilities
[]
3. find one rhel6 host, run the same scenario, it will return the expect value.
......
>>> print node_capabilities
['pci']
Actual result:
As step 2
Expected results:
The return value should not be NULL, should be samilar with step 3.
Additional info:
Check the python API on rhel6 and rhel7, it's same.

Fix virNodeDeviceListCaps always returns empty
virNodeDeviceListCaps will always return empty for a pci nodedevice,
actually it should return 'pci'.
It is because the loop variable ncaps isn't increased.
