But since we have already declared that 1.2 is the last release where libvirt will be scraping -help output, and that 1.3 and later will allow libvirt to query all configuration information via QMP commands, I think that you really _do_ need to consider QMP commands in the scope of this patch series, if you expect libvirt to be able to react to this information in qemu 1.3. --=20 Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --------------enig6D1DA4BB364C036B590CAD35 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJQO4qAAAoJEKeha0olJ0NqCRwIAIcrifaGamEmvu4u7Z0f8Xsv yENC8JbddQSlx+TR3XK29hlBN1atiFe/3hJbA/oCEaIZZuzqGLucBFsODTJGwq5s czyaT6Ue3qaz03FkQNx5aO0fFGXwzXEfYVtqHRBpbffwPi+1hhVaikT+Iy0+Qy+5 ZJ62kJ4+YyYOop8SlH+OdNqlrIFDviIaOEF3zRdD4q/UYbqIA1OU9bhjPcaFMDYU 9eQdlFj4HlagjpJQnkQue4sCgH6vDftT2uQWvgxk0snbaYzN1xfkMFXJOuUCNk9U gXLfm7ZCmNEG7xqLX9b+C0uNpG5y+XYidiQKbdqVl+lBXDeTXCtqYPaU5+CjNB0= =e7gG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig6D1DA4BB364C036B590CAD35--
