Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qemu-io: add flag to mark files growable
Date: Sat, 4 Jul 2009 17:53:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090704155330.GA4825@lst.de> (raw)
Add a -g flag to the open command and the main qemu-io command line to
allow opening a file growable. This is only allowed for protocols,
mirroring the limitation exposed through bdrv_file_open.
Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
