As these patches are first quite big patches I send (typo or small fixes do not counts) I just want to mark that I could write something really wrong. Just a way to avoid somebody having to send more patches and get more attention. Some projects are quite prone to merge even not that fine ones. I prefer to have some (a bit) pedantic comments and a real fix/improve. Now I removed the RFC from last update. The main reason is that I found your qemu-iotests repository which, I think should be merged to main repository, but it's just my opinion. Oh... qcow fails 004 test (even origin/coroutines-block) with a I/O error. I must say there are a lot of small hidden things that a developer should know about Qemu, for instance - mailing list follow some LKML rules as CC ML and send to maintainer to get more attention - you can use scripts/checkpatch.pl to check your patches before send I still have also to understand how to use git format-patch/send-email correctly and "fluently" :) Frediano
