Re: [Xen-devel] [Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH 00/30] Xen Q35 Bringup patches + support for PCIe Extended Capabilities for passed through devices

[Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The subject line says to expect 30 patches, but you've only sent 18 to
the list here. I eventually figured out that the first 12 patches were
in Xen code and so not sent to qemu-devel.

For future if you have changes that affect multiple completely separate
projects, send them as separate series. ie just send PATCH 00/18 to
QEMU devel so it doesn't look like a bunch of patches have gone missing.

Presumably this is mapping to the QEMU -machine arg, so it feels desirable
to keep the same naming scheme. ie allow any of the versioned machine
names that QEMU uses. eg any of "pc-q35-2.x" versioned types, or 'q35' as
an alias for latest, and use "pc-i440fx-2.x" versioned types of 'pc' as
an alias for latest, rather than 'i440' which is needlessly divering
from the QEMU machine type.
