Are you also planning on extending QMP BlockdevOptions to support this new backend during device hotplug? And if so, it would be nicer if you didn't abuse the file= field, but instead used separate structured fields for each piece of information being passed. We already have the json: pseudo-protocol that can be used to form a flat filename that encodes multiple fields of information without having to further invent new protocols that abuse the purpose of the filename field. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
