[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/2] vl: Partial support for non-scalar properties with -object |
Date: |
Fri, 11 Aug 2017 18:05:22 +0200 |
We've wanted -object to support non-scalar properties for a while.
Dan Berrange tried in "[PATCH v4 00/10]Provide a QOM-based
authorization API". Review led to the conclusion that we need to
replace rather than add to QemuOpts. Initial work towards that goal
has been merged to provide -blockdev (commit 8746709), but there's
substantial work left, mostly due to an bewildering array of
compatibility problems.
Even if a full solution is still out of reach, we can have a partial
solution now: accept -object argument in JSON syntax. This should
unblock development work that needs non-scalar properties with
-object.
The implementation is similar to -blockdev, except we use the new
infrastructure only for the new JSON case, and stick to QemuOpts for
the existing KEY=VALUE,... case, to sidestep compatibility problems.
If we did this for more options, we'd have to factor out common code.
But for one option, this will do.
