To my knowledge, everything in libvirt is now prepared to fully use -blockdev way to configure disks in qemu. There is one known qemu bug though: Internal snapshots don't work with -blockdev: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658981 Since I can't in good faith ask for merging this patchset yet I'd like to give it some more testing I'm suggesting that we push it and revert it during freeze or add a capability check once qemu is fixed.
I am very much in favour of getting some testing before releasing such big changes. Any way of not including this in release tarballs is fine, but we should also not completely give up on non-blockdev approach until we do actually release it, if only because by having this in for the whole development period only to disable it for release would mean that we are releasing something we did not test at all for a whole cycle. Yeah, I know the above does not give a clear answer or solution, but that is because I am ambivalent about it. But I'm not against having this in git to test it. Since the change itself is fairly trivial you can consider it Reviewed-but-not-tested-by: me =)
