As Eric already said, we need to update the QAPI schema for the new field. We already have an 'id' field for each BlockDriverState, which is currently used as the device_name on the top level, and forbidden on other devices. What is our long-term plan with this? Should 'id' be for every node that must get a BlockBackend on top, and 'node-name' just for any node? We're mixing BDS and BB configuration here. It may be okay to do that, especially as long as BBs don't have more than just device_name to be configured, but we should at least be aware that we're doing it. Kevin
