First of all, my apologies for being so late with this. I realized part way through the current development cycle that I couldn't do both the error work and my half of the block probing work we discussed back in November, so I punted the latter to the next cycle, missing the one little feature I quite obviously could do.
Why 2.3? 1. libvirt wants it, the sooner, the better. See the libvirt RFC PATCH https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-03/msg04457.html 2. The patch is simple, and quite obviously does nothing unless you run with --misc format-probing=off.
