Description of problem: virt-xml-validate validate fails when xml contains kernel/initrd/cmdline elements Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-0.9.10-21.el6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Prepare a guest xml contains kernel/initrd/cmdline elements to customize the own kernel parameters, for example. # cat rhel63_before.xml <domain type='kvm' id='3'> <name>rhel63_new</name> <memory unit='KiB'>1048576</memory> <currentMemory unit='KiB'>1048576</currentMemory> <vcpu placement='static'>1</vcpu> <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='rhel6.3.0'>hvm</type> <kernel>/var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinst-vmlinuz.AI6hG7</kernel> <initrd>/var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinst-initrd.img.m_fNbg</initrd> <cmdline>method=http://download.englab.nay.redhat.com/pub/rhel/rel-eng/RHEL6.3-20120531.0/6.3/Server/x86_64/os/</cmdline> <boot dev='hd'/> </os> <features> <acpi/> <apic/> <pae/> </features> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>destroy</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm</emulator> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/> <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel63.img'/> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> <alias name='virtio-disk0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </disk> <controller type='usb' index='0'> <alias name='usb0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x01' function='0x2'/> </controller> <interface type='network'> <mac address='52:54:00:4d:f3:f2'/> <source network='default'/> <target dev='vnet0'/> <model type='virtio'/> <alias name='net0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/> </interface> <serial type='pty'> <source path='/dev/pts/1'/> <target port='0'/> <alias name='serial0'/> </serial> <console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/1'> <source path='/dev/pts/1'/> <target type='serial' port='0'/> <alias name='serial0'/> </console> <input type='tablet' bus='usb'> <alias name='input0'/> </input> <input type='mouse' bus='ps2'/> <graphics type='vnc' port='5900' autoport='yes'/> <sound model='ich6'> <alias name='sound0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </sound> <video> <model type='cirrus' vram='9216' heads='1'/> <alias name='video0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/> </video> <memballoon model='virtio'> <alias name='balloon0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06' function='0x0'/> </memballoon> </devices> <seclabel type='dynamic' model='selinux' relabel='yes'> <label>system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c434,c616</label> <imagelabel>system_u:object_r:svirt_image_t:s0:c434,c616</imagelabel> </seclabel> </domain> 2. # virsh define rhel63_before.xml Domain rhel63_new defined from rhel63_before.xml 3. # virt-xml-validate rhel63_before.xml rhel63_before.xml:7: element type: Relax-NG validity error : Error validating value rhel63_before.xml:8: element kernel: Relax-NG validity error : Expecting element boot, got kernel Relax-NG validity error : Extra element kernel in interleave rhel63_before.xml:8: element kernel: Relax-NG validity error : Element os failed to validate content rhel63_before.xml:7: element type: Relax-NG validity error : Element type failed to validate content rhel63_before.xml:1: element domain: Relax-NG validity error : Element domain failed to validate content rhel63_before.xml fails to validate Actual results: As above Expected results: virt-xml-validate works well Additional info: When remove these 3 elements from xml, virt-xml-validate works well
Commit b34324fbf in upstream, move to POST.
With libvirt-0.9.13-3.el6.x86_64, the bug can be verified. Use the same XML file in bug description, and check it: # virt-xml-validate rhel63.xml bug.xml validates
