[libvirt] Fwd: In Use tracker for network and pci-passthrough devices
This is a conversation that I started with Laine Stump for the implementation of the
in-use tracker for network and pci devices.
I want to make this conversation more public in order to receive everyone's view on
the topic.
I will also post the responses I got from Laine and Osier Yang.
Many Thanks,
Regards,

Laine,
I have submitted my v2 patches for forward mode='hostdev' and am planning to work
on the in-use tracker for network
and pci-passthrough devices.
I am unable to wrap my head around how I should be implementing this functionality. I am
unable to decide at what
level I should be implementing this (network, domain or qemu).
May I ask for your guidance in order to implement this functionality?
