I don't get this part. I don't see how individual devices implementation will be able to affect the outcome after this patch is applied. GlobalProperty::driver is not used as input for object_property_parse() at all (see qdev_prop_set_globals()). This means exactly the same property setter is invoked when registering "<superclass>.<property>" or "<subclass>.<property>". The only difference introduced by this series is in the ordering of the object_property_parse() calls. And even the object_property_parse() call ordering is not affected by this patch at all, because of patch 1/3. Patch 1/3 will ensure the properties will be applied in exactly the same order they were registered, so this patch should introduce absolutely no behavior change on any device. -- Eduardo
