Subject: [PATCH v3 14/35] monitor: use class method for I/O thread request
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2026 11:58:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260618105836.991609-15-berrange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260618105836.991609-1-berrange@redhat.com>

Introducing a virtual "requires_iothread" method allows the code to
automatically initialize the I/O thread during object completion.
