[v3] block: commit/stream: Allow users to request only format driver names in backing file format

[PATCH v3 0/2] block: commit/stream: Allow users to request only format driver names in backing file format

Posted by Peter Krempa 1 year, 5 months ago

Please see patches for rationale.

Libvirt patches using this new flag will be posted soon-ish (after
cleanup).

v3:
 - changed name of flag to 'backing-mask-protocol' (Eric)
 - decided to keep Vladimir's R-b as he requested shorter name too

v2:
 - fixed mistaken argument order in 'hmp_block_stream'
 - changed version in docs to 9.0 as getting this into RC 3 probably
   isn't realistic

    backing file format
  block: stream: Allow users to request only format driver names in

Polite ping, now that qemu-8.2 was released.
