Either people just send code patches directly, or for more complex features like this, start off with a mailing list discussion about design decisions before writing patches. Libvirt releases once a month so there's no critical deadlines you need to rush to meet from upstream POV - they'll merge in whatever release is next once the code has passed review. For complex code it is common to post several versions adapting to review comments. In terms of merging code, if it depends on QEMU, then we require that the QEMU impl is merged before the libvirt impl is merged. We'd encourage you to develop & publish libvirt patches before QEMU work is finalized. This helps demonstrate that the QEMU impl is a good match for what libvirt needs. > 3. we wanted to use Libvirt MKTME in Openstack, what are the requirements? This is probably more a question for the OpenStack community to answer. The goal with Libvirt is to expose the feature in XML and/or API in a way that is suitable for any mgmt application.
