This, of course, is waiting on the same series from Jeff that my active-commit is waiting on; but I agree with making it a separate capability, as someone may backport active-commit optional 'top' to qemu 2.0 while leaving out the more complex backing file stuff. ACK, but wait to push until qemu.git is ready :) -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
