At best, you'd want to make it optional, but I'm not even convinced you want to add it, since we already can use the magic /dev/fdset/nnn in 'path' to pass an arbitrary fd if the underlying code uses qemu_open(). -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
