[PATCH 08/13] conf: Validate that iohtreads are used only with 'virtio-scsi' controllers
Posted by Peter Krempa 10 months ago
The documentation states:

 ``iothread``
    Supported for controller type ``scsi`` using model ``virtio-scsi`` for
    ``address`` types ``pci`` and ``ccw`` :since:`since 1.3.5 (QEMU 2.4)`. The

The code itself didn't validate if iothread is specified for any other
controller type.

Add test case showing the issue on one example.
