[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 3/6] add backup related monitor commands

2013-02-19 Thread Dietmar Maurer
We use a generic BackupDriver struct to encapsulate all archive format related function. Another option would be to simply dump to the output fh (pipe), and an external binary saves the data. That way we could move the whole archive format related code out of qemu. Signed-off-by: Dietmar Maurer
