Subject: Re: [Qemu-devel] [V2 3/3] <Resend> Command "block_set" for dynamic block params change
Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2011 22:53:27 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DFB8D8F.7050000@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110617163806.2933.39799.sendpatchset@skannery>

Resending block_set command patch to avoid mismatch between
"paramname" defined for human monitor and "name" used in do_block_set
for reading name of block device parameter.
---

New command "block_set" added for dynamically changing any of the block
device parameters. For now, dynamic setting of hostcache params using
block_set is implemented. Other block device parameter changes can be 
integrated in similar lines.
