With this series applied...
* driver-specific command line options can be passed to protocols
* the protocol driver can be explicitly specified instead of being parsed from
the file name; the file name can be left out if the protocol doesn't need it
* a new .bdrv_parse_filename callback parses filenames into option QDicts that
are used for the real bdrv_open()
* NBD makes use of all of these feature so that you can now specify:
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file.driver=nbd,file.host=localhost
Kevin Wolf (11):
block: Add options QDict to bdrv_file_open() prototypes
block: Pass bdrv_file_open() options to block drivers
qemu-socket: Make socket_optslist public
nbd: Keep hostname and port separate
nbd: Remove unused functions
nbd: Accept -drive options for the network connection
block: Introduce .bdrv_parse_filename callback
block: Rename variable to avoid shadowing
block: Make find_image_format safe with NULL filename
block: Allow omitting the file name when using driver-specific options
nbd: Use default port if only host is specified
