Any downstreamers that plans to backport blockdev-add would also backport this as part of their efforts. I don't see that as any different from any other backport effort that includes requiring multiple non-contiguous pre-req patches. We don't need it on the 1.6 stable tree, and downstream is no worse for the wear. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
