[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/4] qapi: Add passfd QMP command

[Corey Bryant]

This patch adds the passfd QMP command using the QAPI framework.
Like the getfd command, it is used to pass a file descriptor via
SCM_RIGHTS.  However, the passfd command also returns the received
file descriptor, which is a difference in behavior from the getfd
command, which returns nothing.

The closefd command can be used to close a file descriptor that was
passed with the passfd command.

v2:
 -Introduce new QMP command to pass/return fd (address@hidden)
 -Use passfd as command name (address@hidden)
