[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Add syntax check for block devices

[Masaki Kanno <kanno.masaki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

If we define wrong values to a disk parameter in domain configuration 
files, we get an error message or a guest OS panic.

 1. If we define a wrong disk type, xm create command error occurs 
    about 100 seconds later.
      e.g.  disk=['xyz:/xen/root-vm1.img,hda1,w']

 2. If we forget a disk type, a guest OS panic occurs.
      e.g.  disk=['/xen/root-vm1.img,hda1,w']

This patch adds syntax checks of disk types.

Best regards,
 Kan
