Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 3/6] docs: Add docs and rng schema for new XML tag sgio

This introduces new XML tag "sgio" for disk, its valid values are "filtered" and "unfiltered", setting it as "filtered" will set the disk's unpriv_sgio to 0, and "unfiltered" to set it as 1, which allows the unprivileged SG_IO commands. --- docs/formatdomain.html.in | 14 ++++++++++- docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 54 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------- 2 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/formatdomain.html.in b/docs/formatdomain.html.in index 94df6f8..5e37b92 100644 --- a/docs/formatdomain.html.in +++ b/docs/formatdomain.html.in @@ -1395,7 +1395,19 @@ rawio='yes', rawio capability will be enabled for all disks in the domain (because, in the case of QEMU, this capability can only be set on a per-process basis).
