[Qemu-devel] [PATCH COLO-BLOCK v7 12/17] block: Allow references for backing files

[Wen Congyang]

Usage:
-drive file=xxx,id=Y, \
-drive file=xxxx,id=X,backing.backing_reference=Y

It will create such backing chain:
               {virtio-blk dev 'Y'}      {virtio-blk dev 'X'}
                         |                         |
                         |                         |
                         v                         v

    [base] <- [mid] <- ( Y )  <----------------- ( X )
