Yeah good point, I can re-spin to include the various device info's.
Not sure about an init_domain_config, I don't see how it would work,
currently we have:
libxl_domain_config x;
init_create_info(&x.c_info);
// do stuff to c_info
init_build_info(&x.b_info, &x.c_info);
// do stuff to b_info
init_dm_info(&x.dm_info, &x.c_info, &x.b_info);
// do stuff to dm_info
for each device { init device; do stuff to device; }
You could init them all in one functions but it breaks IMO the main
purpose of these functions which is that when you 'do stuff' to b_info
then init_dm_info() depends on that to set the sane defaults (eg. for
vidmem).
So either we would have every field as a parameter to this function or
add callbacks for the 'do stuff' bits which seems a very rigid
interface. I think we should wait for 4.2 before we try to make any
more-sweeping changes in this area.
