[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] migration: Add a new option to enable only-migratable

[Ashijeet Acharya]

Add a new option "--only-migratable" in qemu which will allow to add
only those devices which will not fail qemu after migration. Devices
set with the flag 'unmigratable' cannot be added when this option will
be used.
