With this patch, one can specify the disk source using libvirt
storage like:

   <disk type='volume' device='disk'>
     <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none'/>
     <source pool='default' volume='fc18.img'/>
     <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
   </disk>

"seclables" and "startupPolicy" are not supported for this new
disk type ("volume"). They will be supported in later patches.
Depending on the pool type, this should be treated as file or block.
You do this correctly in patch 8, but I think it is not complete.  For
example, will your patches allow SCSI passthrough of a volume inside an
iSCSI pool?

No, it will be another patch set. On top of Han cheng's patches.
I'm waiting for those patches go in first, or I will rebase/update
it if Han doesn't have enough time to do it, and do the work
after that.


Perhaps libvirt should always work in terms of enum virStorageVolType,
initializing it from either the pool or the "type" attribute.
