[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qapi/block: Document restrictions for node names


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qapi/block: Document restrictions for node names
Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2018 14:37:28 +0200

blockdev-add fails if an invalid node name is given, so we should
document what a valid node name even is.
