[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] switch balloon initialization to -device.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] switch balloon initialization to -device.

[Gerd Hoffmann]

With that patch applied "-balloon virtio,args" becomes a shortcut for
"-device virtio-balloon-pci,args".

Side effects:
 - ballon device gains support for id=<tag>.
 - ballon device is off by default now.
 - initialization order changes, which may in different pci slot
   assignment depending on the VM configuration.

Looks good on quick inspection (gotta run), just one question: what
happens when I (stupidly) do -balloon virtio,driver=e1000 ?  Question
might apply to plain -device before this patch as well.

QemuOpts allows overwriting, so who is written last will win.
Write order is undefined, so don't try that at home ;)

Behavior of the current code:

   -balloon virtio,driver=e1000 will give you a balloon device.
   -device virtio-blk-pci,driver=e1000 will give you a e1000.

cheers,
   Gerd

Ugly.  Not sure it's worth fixing.
