Yes, I agree with that, but if it is in its own package I think it will never reach user because no one will find it. I can try to push this into util-linux where we can find tools like lscpu, lsblk ... but the competencies to review the code are in qemu-devel ML not in util-linux ML. Thanks, Laurent
