[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 0/5] network announce; interface selection & IDs

[Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)]

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <address@hidden>

Up until now, the 'announce' feature has mainly been used
for migration where we announce on all interfaces.  Another
use for 'announce' is in cases of network topology changes.

Since network topology changes may only affect a subset
of the interfaces, we add an 'interface list' to announce
to restrict the announcment to the interfaces we're interested
in.

Multiple topology changes might happen in close succession,
so we allow multiple timers, each with their own parameters
(including the interface list).
