 I looked at the code you suggested. As far as i could understand, it actually 
parses an output of
"qemu-system-blah -device ?" plus some extras. And this command lists all 
devices that this qemu
version knows, and not only what can be attached to a particular machine.
 I browsed through the history of qemu patches. Actually, "gpex-pcihost" device 
was implemented
together with adding it to 'virt' machine. So, i could query for this flag and 
count it as
capability. But - it only says that qemu knows this device in principle. It 
does not say that this
device is really a part of virt machine. Will it be acceptable ?
