A bit late in the day, but you can also compare and contrast how libguestfs adds virtio-scsi controllers/disks: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/master/src/launch-libvirt.c Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Fedora Windows cross-compiler.
