[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] net: convert NetClientState to QOM

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

This series converts NetClientState from a plain C struct to QOM.  This means
emulated NICs and netdevs now derive from the NetClientState base class.  There
should be no user-visible change.

Converting the net subsystem to QOM opens the door to the following
improvements which can be built on top of this series:

1. Lifecycle cleanup to make hotplug saner and allow associating a NIC with a
   new netdev at runtime.  Really we should use the QOM lifecycle!

2. Exposing NICs and netdevs in the QOM tree so they can be configured and
   inspected at runtime.

I have tested virtio and e1000 with -netdev tap and user.  Build tested all
targets on Linux host.

Stefan Hajnoczi (4):
  net: add public qemu_net_poll() function
  net: add net_is_tap_client()
  net: extract notify_link_status_changed() function
  net: convert NetClientState to QOM
