Migration with qcow2 is not a supported feature for 1.0.  Migration is

good enough for migration.

Say what?

Due to block format probing, we read at least the first sector of
the disk during start up.

A simple solution is not to do any probing before the VM is first
started on the incoming path.

Any issues with this?

I think Kevin wanted open to get delayed.

So, this patchset just needs to be revived and polished up?

What I took from the feedback was that Kevin wanted to defer open until the device model started. That eliminates the need to reopen or have a invalidation callback.

I think it would be good for Kevin to comment here though because I might have misunderstood his feedback.

Anthony Liguori
