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.


George Dunlap (7):
  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: 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
