libxl: Allow multiple USB devices on HVM domain creation
This patch allows an HVM domain to be created with multiple USB devices. Since the previous interface only allowed the passing of a single device, this requires us to add a new element to the hvm struct of libxl_domain_build_info -- usbdevice_list. For API compatibility, the old element, usbdevice, remains. If hvm.usbdevice_list is set, each device listed will cause an extra "-usbdevice [foo]" to be appended to the qemu command line. Callers may set either hvm.usbdevice or hvm.usbdevice_list, but not both; libxl will throw an error if both are set. In order to allow users of libxl to write software compatible with older versions of libxl, also define LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_USBDEVICE_LIST. If this is defined, callers may use either hvm.usbdevice or hvm.usbdevice_list; otherwise, only hvm.usbdevice will be available. as applied: - Fix whitespace errors -iwj v3: - Duplicate functionality in both "new" and "old", since we're not unifying the two anymore. v2: - Throw an error if both usbdevice and usbdevice_list are set - Update and clarify definition based on feedback - Previous patches means this works for both traditional and upstream Signed-off-by: George Dunlap <george.dunlap@eu.citrix.com> Acked-by: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@eu.citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@eu.citrix.com>
