I would like to use QMP more and to autodiscover buses (so that every SCSI test can be run on both virtio-scsi and LSI SAS, just by writing a "driver" for LSI SAS), and I would like to write that code in anything but C. :) > Writing low-level device tests in C seems okay to me. Yes, it's fine---but writing tests that also interact with the monitor is a bit worse, similar to how qemu-iotests is part shell and part Python. > The problem is that the longer we wait, the harder it becomes to move to > Python. We'd need all the PCI, virtio, etc frameworks ported to Python. True... but I can still dream. ;) Paolo
