Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2 00/25] qemu: virtio-{non-}transitional support

v1 libvirt patches: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-January/msg00593.html Previous incomplete RFC here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-January/msg00346.html qemu patches, queued for qemu 4.0.0: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-12/msg00923.html Previous libvirt discussion around this: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-August/msg01073.html Long story short we need to expose these options so apps have a usable way to support rhel6 + virtio + q35. This series exposes the new devices as model= values. This required adding new model= attributes for several devices. See v1 posting for a summary of the XML changes introduced, mostly it's adding virtio-transitional and virtio-non-transitional to existing model= enums, and adding model= XML attributes for devices that don't have them (disk, fs, input) Changes from v1: - <filesystem> models are now named virtio-9p, virtio-9p-transitional, virtio-9p-non-transitional. This is to avoid ambiguity as in the near future we will likely add virtio-fs <filesystem> support - Cleanup and prep work is separated into separate patches and front loaded into the series. - qemu caps additions are separated from the qemu_command.c patches, and squashed together upfront. - virDomainDeviceSetData is added to make it easier to compose a virDomainDeviceDef on the fly. This is used for the transitional cli building but can be useful elsewhere too, but that's for another series. - Lots of small improvements and fixes suggested by Andrea.
