Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] qapi: add '@fdset' feature for BlockdevOptionsVirtioBlkVhostVdpa
Date: Tue, 30 May 2023 09:19:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230530071941.8954-3-sgarzare@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230530071941.8954-1-sgarzare@redhat.com>
The virtio-blk-vhost-vdpa driver in libblkio 1.3.0 supports the fd
passing through the new 'fd' property.
Since now we are using qemu_open() on '@path' if the virtio-blk driver
supports the fd passing, let's announce it.
In this way, the management layer can pass the file descriptor of an
already opened vhost-vdpa character device. This is useful especially
when the device can only be accessed with certain privileges.
Add the '@fdset' feature only when the virtio-blk-vhost-vdpa driver
in libblkio supports it.

Notes:
v5:
- moved `features` to the object level to simplify libvirt code [Jonathon]
- wrapped a line too long in the documentation [Markus]
v4:
- added this patch to allow libvirt to discover we support fdset [Markus]
