[libvirt PATCH 0/6] [RFC] qemu: implement support for pulling into non-active layers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



QEMU's block-stream command supports pulling ("streaming" in QMP lingo) into
arbitrary layer, however libvirt can only pull into an active layer.  This
series is a proof-of-concept work to extend libvirt's pull to support pulling
into non-active layers as well.

While this doesn't seem to be a much demanded feature by itself, it can be seen
as a prerequisite to implementing full support for external snapshots in
snapshot-delete(*) as that appears to be implementable in terms of a
full-featured pull.

As stated above, this is a proof-of-concept work so admittedly not much effort
went into fully polishing the series.  The expectation is that the series will
have to change heavily anyway before it's good enough to be pushed.
