I'd prefer to not introduce those virtio-$type-pci-$version devices in the first place. It isn't hard to write up something qdev based. Only problem is it will depend on lots of not-yet merged qdev patches. Speaking of patches: What is up there? aliguori-queue.git wasn't flushed for more than a week now. There are lots of patches on the list unprocessed, ranging from simple one-liner build fixes to larger patch series. There was rumor on a new -stable release Tue/Wed this week which didn't happen yet. Looks like patch processing needs load-balancing to more people ... cheers, Gerd
