device_del
----------
Remove a device.
Arguments:
- "id": the device's ID (json-string)
"id" should become "device" (I hope to send the corresponding patches
this night). The idea is to not only allow global device IDs but also
qtree paths here.
Now I'm confused. On a previous email when discussing about
query-netdev, I initially proposed this[1]:
-> { "execute": "query-netdev" }
<- {
"return": [
{
"device": "tap.0",
"vlan": 0,
"info": {
"script": "/etc/qemu-ifup",
"downscript": "/etc/qemu-ifdown",
"ifname": "tap0",
"model": "tap"
},
},
And latter on Anthony suggested to replace "device" by "id" [2].
So my doubt is: we should identify guest/frontend devices in QMP using
the word "device" instead of "id" and identify backend devices by
using the word "id"?
id.
What Jan is referring to is the qdev device path verses the qdev id.
netdev objects are not qdev devices, they are just QemuOpts. In netdev
parlance, the unique identifier is called the 'id'.
