[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/5] qapi/block: Add "fatal" to BLOCK_IMAGE_CORRUPTED

[Max Reitz]

Not every BLOCK_IMAGE_CORRUPTED event must be fatal; for example, when
reading from an image, they should generally not be. Nonetheless, even
an image only read from may of course be corrupted and this can be
detected during normal operation. In this case, a non-fatal event should
be emitted, but the image should not be marked corrupt (in accordance to
"fatal" set to false).
