      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      Unfiltered sgio is no longer supported, the doc should be updated accordingly.

      The current doc:

      disk->sgio:
      If supported by the hypervisor and OS, indicates whether unprivileged SG_IO commands are filtered for the disk. Valid settings are "filtered" or "unfiltered" where the default is "filtered". Only available when the device is 'lun'. Since 1.0.2
      
      hostdev-scsi:
      If supported by the hypervisor and OS, the optional sgio ( since 1.0.6 ) attribute indicates whether unprivileged SG_IO commands are filtered for the disk. Valid settings are "filtered" or "unfiltered", where the default is "filtered".

          conf: reject unfiltered sgio on validation
          
          No kernels supported by upstream libvirt have the feature.
