[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/3] block: Introduce path_has_protocol() function

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

The bdrv_find_protocol() function returns NULL if an unknown protocol
name is given.  It returns the "file" protocol when the filename
contains no protocol at all.  This makes it difficult to distinguish
between paths which contain a protocol and those which do not.

Factor out a helper function that tests whether or not a filename has a
protocol.  The next patch makes use of this function.
