[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 1/2] globals: Allow global properties to be optional |
Date: |
Thu, 10 Jan 2019 16:04:57 -0200 |
Making some global properties optional will let us simplify
compat code when a given property works on most (but not all)
subclasses of a given type.
Device types will be able to opt out from optional compat
properties by simply not registering those properties.

Changes v2 -> v3:
* Don't ignore all errors, ignore property only if it doesn't
exist
Changes v1 -> v2:
* (new patch)
Note: the "An error is fatal for non-hotplugged devices [...]"
comment that appears in the diff scope is inaccurate, but I will
fix that in a separate patch because I don't want this to get
into the way of fixing the crash.
