On a 'qemu-discuss' thread[1], Kevin identifies that the current doc blurb for @blockdev-add is stale:This is actually a documentation bug. @id doesn't exist, blockdev-add never creates a BlockBackend. This was different in the very first versions of the patches to add blockdev-add and we probably just forgot to update the documentation after removing it. So remove the stale bits. And the requirement for 'node-name' is already mentioned in the documentation of @BlockdevOptions: [...] # @node-name: the node name of the new node (Since 2.0). # This option is required on the top level of blockdev-add. # Valid node names start with an alphabetic character and may # contain only alphanumeric characters, '-', '.' and '_'. Their # maximum length is 31 characters. [...] [1] https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-discuss/2020-07/msg00071.html -- equivalent to "-drive if=ide,id=disk0....."
