just like block device.
e.g. vif=['type=ioemu, mac=01:00:00:00:00:33, bridge=xenbr0']
type=ioemu to specify for vmx NIC device.
nics=4 can specify 4 vmx NIC now.
bridge is passed to device model now.
With this patch, the error
"Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected."
will not happen for creating vmx guest
currently, it happens on some linux distribution.

This is Kurt Garloff's reworked network-bridge script:
* we got rid of ifconfig
* it works for netdev != eth0
* arp on and off are symmetric as are ifdown and ifup
* ifup will be passed the ifcfg config file name if needed
(the ifup may otherwise figure that the veth0 hardware is
NOT the same as the original ${netdev} and not use the same
config -- this happens on SUSE. Charles Coffing tracked this
one down.)
Plus Kurt's avoid-dash patch:
the network setup scripts on SUSE have trouble with the bridge
name xen-br0; they don't expect the '-'.
Arguably this should be fixed.
But I assume there's more scripts out there which may not like it,
so I suggest the following patch to rename xen-br0 to xenbr0.
Plus Charles Duffy's patch to support multiple bridges:
The attached patch allows the network-bridge script to be used to
generate multiple bridges corresponding to different physical
interfaces. It adds a new parameter, "vifnum", used to refer both to
the loopback interface to be used and to set defaults regarding the
physical interface and bridge name.
Thus, if one wishes to start xenbr0 on eth0 and xenbr1 on eth1, one
need only call:
network-bridge start ## vifnum is 0 by default
network-bridge start vifnum=1
...well, that and set loopback.nloopbacks=2 in the Dom0 kernel
parameters.
Plus renaming of virtnum to vifnum in Charles' patch, as requested by Ian Pratt.
Plus a fix to DevController to allocate vif IDs starting from 0 (i.e. vif2.0
is now domain 2's first vif, as opposed to vif2.1 in the recent past).
Plus tidying up inside network-bridge using some helper variables.

they actually take effect. Added behaviour "rename-restart" for debugging
purposes, that renames the domain out of the way, preserving it for debugging,
but starts a new domain too.
Add explicit remove of old domain paths when creating a new domain, to avoid
stale information affecting us (by shutting the domain down, for example).

and belong in /usr/lib always (never /usr/lib64). qemu-dm
continues to live under /usr/lib64 on 64-bit systems.
Modify the vmx config script to auto-detect correct path
to qemu-dm, rather than staically configuring at compile
time.

If we define "vif" in the config file, image.py will raise error "vmx:
missing vbd configuration". The reason is "vif" is dealt with as a "vbd"
device.
This patch fixes this issue by dealing with "vbd" and "vif " separately,
removing "macaddr" arg and parsing mac address from "vif" instead.
Also, the vbd doesn't have to be a file anymore, but can be a physical
disk partition.

[PATCH] Device model cleanup.
Device model cleanup.
- Single config file for xen and device models
(Shell script doesn't source xmdefconfig anymore)
- No more device-model shell script by default. You can
have one if needed (qemu-dm.debug)
- All logic in the script device-model is moved to python
- $DISPLAY is passed from xm to xend
- Don't fork vncviewer on dryruns
- Add support for killing device models on domain destroy
- info vmxiopage command added to the monitor
- Refactor shared io page into global and per vcpu state
- Remove the hard coding of IOPACKET_PORT
- move the virtual_platform_def up to domain struct from vcpu
- xm create -n:

[PATCH] qemu.patch
This patch is needed to get the tree to build for QEMU based I/O emulation.
- Run configure before doing make in tools/ioemu
- We now have a single config file for VMX domains (earlier we had a
bochsrc and xmexample.vmx)
