[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/3] cleanup drive handling.

[Gerd Hoffmann]

  Hi,

This patch series cleans up the drive handling in qemu.  It removes the
drives_table and (new in v2) also the drives_opt table and replaces them
with linked lists.  The silly table indexing stuff is gone.

It also adds the ability to name drives using id= (used to be name= in
v1, but for consistency with -device which uses id= too I've decided to
change it).

Future plans:

While qdev-ifying virtual disk drivers block/*.c) make them lookup the
BlockDriverState using the id.

cheers,
  Gerd
