You reall want reference implementation on both sides of an ABI, _and_ documentation. And yes, usually you'll need a few iterations over it. In theory you can do that in a "tightly integrated" enviroment as well, but practice shows simply boilds down to commiting the bloody thing. I'm also not sure why we even bother to focus with this side-line discussion. It's not like the kvm (as in the kernel kvm module) developers have written the kvm tools. It's just another userspace for the kvm userspace (the fifth if I count correctly), and so far the reference and often only implementation of any new kvm module feature is for qemu-kvm. So no matter where kvm tools lives, if you guys one day actually start doing major kvm core features it will still evolve discussing them with the main consumer of those interfaces. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
