Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] tools: Allow HVM domains emulated access to disks provided by hotplug scripts
Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2016 17:22:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458840160-26733-1-git-send-email-george.dunlap@citrix.com> (raw)

In order for HVM domains to provide emulated access to disks provided
by hotplug scripts, qemu needs access to a "cooked" version of the
disk.  In the case of hotplug scripts, this "cooked" version is
available in the form of a block device passed to blkback.  Make this
"cooked" version available to qemu.

This series also starts to work towards a rationalized interface to
the block hotplug scripts, on which hotplug scripts for FreeBSD can be
added.

git://xenbits.xenproject.org/people/gdunlap/xen.git out/hotplug-script-improvements/v3

Changes in v3:
- Fix stray comma
- Make it clear that block-script.txt inputs are Linux-specific

Changes since v1:
- Split one of the patches into two


George Dunlap (8):
  tools/hotplug: Add a "dummy" hotplug script for testing
  libxl: Remove redundant setting of phyical-device
  tools/hotplug: Write physical-device-path in addition to
    physical-device
  libxl: Move check for local access to a funciton
  libxl: Rearrange qemu upstream disk argument code
  libxl: Share logic for finding path between qemuu and pygrub
  libxl: Allow local access for block devices with hotplug scripts
  docs: Document block-script protocol

Ian Jackson (1):
  DO NOT APPLY libxl: Change hotplug script interface to use
    physical-device-path
