Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH pve-storage 1/2] plugin: map/activate volume: allow callers to pass hints
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 14:25:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251024122705.93761-2-f.weber@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251024122705.93761-1-f.weber@proxmox.com>
Right now, the only supported hint is guest-ostype, via which
qemu-server provides the guest's OS type from the VM configuration.
