    I remain skeptical on the use of the qemu_uuid as a way to select the TLS

Is there another identity that can be used for uniquely identifying instances?
The requirement was to enforce vdisk access to owner instances.

    view, I think one could make a case that if there is no header file, the
    error could be ignored.
