Maybe I should then name it block.<num>.path or block.<num>.file, to make it obvious that it is only a file name? And I suppose we could always add other fields later if it turns out to be useful on network devices, but I won't worry about it for now. >> * >> * Specifying VIR_CONNECT_GET_ALL_DOMAINS_STATS_ENFORCE_STATS as @flags makes >> * the function return error in case some of the stat types in @stats were >> - * not recognized by the daemon. >> + * not recognized by the daemon.
