Hi All

We are testing our NVMe devices in virtualized environments and noticed that 
the vendor name and device id (as decoded by pci-ids) is not showing up in 
virt-manager in the add hardware list. We are running Bionic Beaver on the host 
machine and Xenial on the client running virt-manager. We do see the vendor 
name and device name for other devices. Note we do have an entry in pci-ids and 
even inside the guest OS we can see the device name upon booting the OS. E.g. 
Athens is our guest OS hostname

batesste@athens:~$ lspci
00:05.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Eideticom, Inc NoLoad Hardware 
Development Kit (rev 01)
00:06.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Intel Corporation QEMU NVM Express 
Controller (rev 02)

How does virt-manager obtain the human readable vendor name and device name? 
Does it use libvirt on the host machine to obtain those and display then in the 
GUI? Any help appreciated!

Cheers
