Subject: block: Add blk_new_open()
X-Git-Tag: TizenStudio_2.0_p2.3.2~208^2~344^2~14
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ca49a4fdb39d7b00b20e8500cba11aedc87755bd;p=sdk%2Femulator%2Fqemu.git

block: Add blk_new_open()

blk_new_with_bs() creates a BlockBackend with an empty BlockDriverState
attached to it. Empty BDSs are not nice, therefore add an alternative
function which combines blk_new_with_bs() with bdrv_open().

Note: In contrast to bdrv_open() which takes a BlockDriver parameter,
blk_new_open() does not take such a parameter. This is because
bdrv_open() opens a BlockDriverState, therefore it is natural to be able
to set the BlockDriver for that BDS. The fact that bdrv_open() can open
more than a single BDS is merely some form of a byproduct.

blk_new_open() on the other hand is intended to be used to create a
whole tree of BlockDriverStates. Therefore, setting a single BlockDriver
does not make much sense. Instead, the drivers to be used for each of
the nodes must be configured through the "options" QDict; including the
driver of the root BDS.
