[Qemu-devel] [PATCH V6 0/8] Giving names to graph's BlockDriverState

[Benoît Canet]

The following series introduce a new file.node-name property in order to be
able to give a name to each BlockDriverState of the graph.

since v5:
    rename to bdrv_assign_node_name [Fam]
    add node-name to BlockdevOptionsBase [Kevin]
    add query-named-block-nodes name in commit message [Fam]
    make bdrv_lookup_bs interface more generic [Kevin]
    s/check/checks/ [Fam]
    s/implentation/implementation/ [Fam]
    use node names for references [Kevin]



Benoît Canet (8):
  block: Add bs->node_name to hold the name of a bs node of the bs
    graph.
  block: Allow the user to define "node-name" option both on command
    line and QMP.
  qmp: Add QMP query-named-block-nodes to list the named
    BlockDriverState nodes.
  qmp: Allow to change password on named block driver states.
  block: Create authorizations mechanism for external snapshot and
    resize.
  qmp: Allow block_resize to manipulate bs graph nodes.
  qmp: Allow to take external snapshots on bs graphs node.
  block: Use graph node name as reference in bdrv_file_open().
