I add a help message.

If failed just return the NULL string.
It means "Scheduler: Unknown" is shown in virsh schedinfo.

I change like char str_cap[] = "cap";
But I guess even keeps this config memory leak does not occured.

I add macro defined "TODO" for each point.

I add this check.

I add it.

This function also can be defined in xend_internal.c.
So I keep loop on xen_unified.c.
