List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org Cc: Gerd Hoffmann Hi, This patch series cleans up the drive handling in qemu. It removes the drives_table and (new in v2) also the drives_opt table and replaces them with linked lists. The silly table indexing stuff is gone. It also adds the ability to name drives using id= (used to be name= in v1, but for consistency with -device which uses id= too I've decided to change it). Future plans: While qdev-ifying virtual disk drivers block/*.c) make them lookup the BlockDriverState using the id. cheers, Gerd
