[Qemu-devel] [PULL 05/25] block: Deprecate bdrv_set_read_only() and user


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 05/25] block: Deprecate bdrv_set_read_only() and users
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2017 19:16:33 +0100

bdrv_set_read_only() is used by some block drivers to override the
read-only option given by the user. This is not how read-only images
generally work in QEMU: Instead of second guessing what the user really
meant (which currently includes making an image read-only even if the
user didn't only use the default, but explicitly said read-only=off), we
should error out if we can't provide what the user requested.

This adds deprecation warnings to all callers of bdrv_set_read_only() so
that the behaviour can be corrected after the usual deprecation period.
