[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] block: extend BLOCK_IO_ERROR with reason string


From: Luiz Capitulino
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] block: extend BLOCK_IO_ERROR with reason string
Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2014 10:25:48 -0400

BLOCK_IO_ERROR events are logged by libvirt, which helps with
post mortem analysis of guests. However, one information that
we miss today is a human readable string describing the cause
of the I/O error.

This commit adds that string it to BLOCK_IO_ERROR. Note that
this string is a debugging aid for humans, meaning that it
should not parsed by applications.
