It makes one curious to see error "Failed to detach device" while
the device is detached successfully, only because of it failed

is not the end of world, one could resolve the problem of resetting
outside of libvirt, and do reattachment then.

In here, it's just a warning for user, do we expect user to do some
cleanup work
by themselves? for example, to return the pci device to host although
the pci
device is attached with managed mode. if so, user must shutdown the guest
firstly then manually reattach the pci device to host.
BTW. I saw original codes do cleanup work on common branch(if ... else ...).
pciFreeDevice(pci);
pciFreeDevice(activePci);
} else {
- ret = -1;
+ VIR_WARN("Device is detached, but failed to reset PCI device");
I'm not sure about this one. Failure to reset a PCI device could mean
that a DMA transaction could still be in flight, and be exploited to
expose memory that should not otherwise be visible.
I'd like a second opinion before pushing this.
