[PATCH v2 3/3] qemu-config: Add new -add-fd command line option

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

 



This option can be used for passing file descriptors on the
command line.  It mirrors the existing add-fd QMP command which
allows an fd to be passed to QEMU via SCM_RIGHTS and added to an
fd set.

This can be combined with commands such as -drive to link file
descriptors in an fd set to a drive:

    qemu-kvm -add-fd fd=4,set=2,opaque="rdwr:/path/to/file"
             -add-fd fd=5,set=2,opaque="rdonly:/path/to/file"
             -drive file=/dev/fdset/2,index=0,media=disk

This example adds fds 4 and 5, and the accompanying opaque
strings to the fd set with ID=2.  qemu_open() already knows how
to handle a filename of this format.  qemu_open() searches the
corresponding fd set for an fd and when it finds a match, QEMU
goes on to use a dup of that fd just like it would have used an
fd that it opened itself.
