I think what you should do is rebase to the current git head and then git send-email the patch again after applying some changes. When you send it, be sure to note it's "v2"... I keep a template for that in a file and use: git send-email --confirm=always --no-chain-reply-to --annotate \ --cover-letter \ --to=libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx master [ --subject-prefix="PATCH v#" ] where --subject-prefix would be necessary for v2, v3, v4, etc. Also the --cover-letter is only necessary for a 1 patch (so for this one it wouldn't be). You should take the text from your follow up emails and write a commit message to describe the patch does. It should "look like" other patches on the list - there's also the : http://libvirt.org/hacking.html to help you out. Also be sure to run "make check syntax-check" As for the patch itself... > diff --git a/tools/virsh-domain.c b/tools/virsh-domain.c > index 0d19d0e..d2a2a05 100644 > --- a/tools/virsh-domain.c > +++ b/tools/virsh-domain.c > @@ -267,6 +267,10 @@ static const vshCmdOptDef opts_attach_disk[] = { > .type = VSH_OT_STRING, > .help = N_("cache mode of disk device") > }, > + {.name = "io", > + .type = VSH_OT_STRING, > + .help = N_("io mode of disk device") > + }, I'd say this is not so much io mode, but rather io policy for thread model used by the driver (or something like that). > {.name = "type", > .type = VSH_OT_STRING, > .help = N_("target device type") > @@ -504,8 +508,9 @@ cmdAttachDisk(vshControl *ctl, const vshCmd *cmd) > virDomainPtr dom = NULL; > const char *source = NULL, *target = NULL, *driver = NULL, > *subdriver = NULL, *type = NULL, *mode = NULL, > - *iothread = NULL, *cache = NULL, *serial = NULL, > - *straddr = NULL, *wwn = NULL, *targetbus = NULL; > + *iothread = NULL, *cache = NULL, *io = NULL, > + *serial = NULL, *straddr = NULL, *wwn = NULL, > + *targetbus = NULL; > struct DiskAddress diskAddr; > bool isFile = false, functionReturn = false; > int ret; > @@ -537,6 +542,7 @@ cmdAttachDisk(vshControl *ctl, const vshCmd *cmd) > vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "mode", &mode) < 0 || > vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "iothread", &iothread) < 0 || > vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "cache", &cache) < 0 || > + vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "io", &io) < 0 || > vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "serial", &serial) < 0 || > vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "wwn", &wwn) < 0 || > vshCommandOptStringReq(ctl, cmd, "address", &straddr) < 0 || > @@ -579,7 +585,7 @@ cmdAttachDisk(vshControl *ctl, const vshCmd *cmd) > virBufferAddLit(&buf, ">\n"); > virBufferAdjustIndent(&buf, 2); > > - if (driver || subdriver || iothread || cache) { > + if (driver || subdriver || iothread || cache || io) { > virBufferAddLit(&buf, "<driver"); > > if (driver) > @@ -590,6 +596,8 @@ cmdAttachDisk(vshControl *ctl, const vshCmd *cmd) > virBufferAsprintf(&buf, " iothread='%s'", iothread); > if (cache) > virBufferAsprintf(&buf, " cache='%s'", cache); > + if (io) > + virBufferAsprintf(&buf, " io='%s'", io); > > virBufferAddLit(&buf, "/>\n"); > } > diff --git a/tools/virsh.pod b/tools/virsh.pod > index cd1f25f..9656411 100644 > --- a/tools/virsh.pod > +++ b/tools/virsh.pod above here... there's the : =item B<attach-disk> I<domain> I<source> I<target> [[[I<--live>] [I<--config>] ...

Feel free to liberally borrow from the formatdomain description: The optional io attribute controls specific policies on I/O; qemu guests support "threads" and "native".
