Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Check for ejected media during startup and migration

If the daemon is restarted so we reconnect to monitor, cdrom media

To check for disk status use 'info block' monitor command.
Yuck - this is still polling-based (we have to ask qemu every time we
want to dumpxml). Whatever happened to the proposal of having
interrupt-based cdrom events, where qemu sends an event any time the
virtual tray changes state (whether by monitor command or
guest-initiated), and libvirt monitors those events to update its
internal state at that time, so that libvirt's internal state is always
accurate?
