[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 5/9] net: Add a network device specific self-announcement ability

[Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)]

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

Some network devices have a capability to do self announcements
(ex: virtio-net).  Add infrastructure that would allow devices
to expose this ability.
