[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] QMP: add snapshot_blkdev_sync command

[Jes . Sorensen]

From: Jes Sorensen <address@hidden>

Add QMP bits for snapshot_blkdev_sync command. This is the same as
snapshot_blkdev in the human monitor, but added _sync to the name to
make it explicit that the command is synchronous and leave space for a
future async version.
