[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v1 0/1] Convert qdev pointer properties to QOM links

[Sukrit Bhatnagar]

Changes made:
- the properties for dma_out and dma_in objects will be added upon
  etraxfs ethernet device initialization
- the qom links for these objects will be added upon the device
  realization and will point to the respective dma controllers
- the qdev properties for them, defined using DEFINE_PROP_PTR and
  set using qdev_prop_set_ptr, are removed

    qom links

Hi,
I am Sukrit, currently pursuing Masters in Computer Science and Engineering
from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India. My field of research
includes topics such as using non-volatile memory technologies for the
operating system and using accelerated processing units for offloading
network operations.
I have also studied virtualization techniques as part of my academics, and
am looking forward to working on the same as part of my thesis/project.

In GSoC'18, I had contributed code to libvirt. My final blog for the same
can be found here:
https://skrtbhtngr.github.io/2018/08/13/gsoc18-final-blog.html

I am interested in working on PVRDMA Live Migration for QEMU in GSoC'19.
This patch is submitted towards my application for the same.

The idea for this is taken from the list of BiteSizedTasks at
https://wiki.qemu.org/BiteSizedTasks#Device_models

Reference commits: 873b4d and a8299e.

I have run `make check` and got no errors reported. Not sure how I can
test it out further.

Thanks
