@Connie I would also like to have an account. I would also like to do a v2 of this somewhere in the not too distant future. I intend to address the issues pointed out by you here (chpid_type, cu_type). Another question is whether this should go under hw/misc/ like the pci-testdev? ccw-testdev would also probably be a better file name (that ccw-tester) regardless of in which folder does this belong. One more thing I am considering for v2 is this make it extensible argument. I had something like mode on my mind from the very beginning (fib would be one mode). The idea was to provide a control ccw for setting/getting the mode (something like virtio) as well as a device property for setting the initial mode (so that guest does not have to know about it).
