Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 15/23] qemu: monitor: Add monitor infrastructure for query-named-block-nodes

Unfortunately the logic to extract the node names for a complete backing
chain will be so complex that I won't be able to extract any meaningful
subset of the data in the monitor code.
Indeed. My recollection was that query-named-block-nodes is great for
getting information if you already know a node name, but that you have
to resort to other commands if you need to learn a node name (of course,
it gets easier if libvirt actually assigns node names rather than
relying on qemu - but that's what blockdev-add integration is all about).
