So this is an old, tiny series that was posted some time ago; actually
a lot of time ago. I complained because of two things. First one
being that there are no tests, so this series has them in. The second
one was that this could break migration from old code since the
parameter was not used before. So I coded up a migration flag,
handled all the special cases and then started testing it. And while
testing it, I've found out that QEMU doesn't care at all about this
parameter being there and there is no point in keeping it
super-stable, especially when it can be changed on the fly. So I
removed all that code and ended up with tiny series very similar to
previous attempts by various people.

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH 1/2] qemu: Check for qxl's max_outputs parameter
There is max_outputs parameter for both qxl and qxl-vga and there is no
easy way of saying that we want the capability enabled only if both are
supported. So let's have two of them and only use them together.

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH 2/2] qemu: Add support to QXL's max_outputs parameter
Historically, we added heads=1 to videos, but for example for qxl, we
did not reflect that on the command line. Implementing that now could
mean that if user were to migrate from older to newer libvirt, the
command-line for qemu would differ. Well, it does, but since that is
not a problem for QEMU (and the migration is successful) this does not
need any additional migration code or flag.

I think the main problem was that if you upgrade from a QEMU which did
not care to a QEMU with the option and a libvirt which supports it,
suddenly your VMs are going to go from supporting multiple heads (4) to
only supporting one as older libvirt always add a 'heads=1' to the XML.

I'm not sure how to handle this, but I was under the impression that
this can be changed on the fly. If libvirt doesn't support that, then
we should enable it. But anyway not adding max_outputs= to commandline
when migrating from older libvirt could break something the other way
around as well.
/me quickly searches reflog for that migration code...

From the spice side, this seems to be changeable on the fly.

So if the maximum is changeable on the fly then I believe we should not
add that to a command-line on the destination when migrating because it
might be already different to the number that was set when the VM
started. So let me know which one works better so I know what to
include in the next version where the deleted, restored, and then
cleaned up migration part will be.
Thanks,
Martin
