This is supposed to work already -- it is why find_datadir() looks at a path based on qemu_get_exec_dir() as well as at the CONFIG_QEMU_DATADIR. If you want to replace that mechanism, you need to explain: * under what circumstances it isn't working correctly * why we should replace it with a different design rather than attempting to fix its bugs * why the design you're proposing is the right way to do that The cover letter is a good place to explain that sort of thing, so people understand why the patchset is doing what it is before they dive into the detail. thanks -- PMM
