This patch series tried to implement the fifth part of Paolo's proposal: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.libvirt/50428 It is not completed. But it may for use. Needs some more works on: src/qemu/qemu_hostdev.c src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c We may also need create src/util/virscsi.[hc] like src/util/vir(pci|usb).[hc], add sg* to nodedev tree and some others. As scsi hostdev needs -drive and -device like disk. There are two approaches: a) build a disk then use the disk related functions, b) create new function for it. I chose the last one as it is clearer and easier. But this may create some redundant codes. Any ideas?
