Hi,
This patch series adds a qdev flag which allows devices being tagged as
not hotpluggable. It also sets this flag for a number of devices.
Do we want to be able to mark device as not hot-unpluggable from command
like too? Something like this -device blabla,notunplug=no.
Hmm, dunno. Do you have a example where this would be needed or useful?
Dunno me too. Windows allows to eject any hot-unpluggable device to any
user and in the past we got requirement to disable this and had to build
two BIOSes one with cpu hot-plug support another without. So
hot-pluggability of device looks like management decision (along with
technical one if device can't be actually unplugged).
