qdev: Revert the hack to let -net nic and pci_add set qdev ID
Setting the ID in pci_nic_init() is a blatant violation of the DeviceState abstraction. Which even carries a comment advising against this: /* This structure should not be accessed directly. We declare it here so that it can be embedded in individual device state structures. */ What's worse, it bypasses the code ensuring unique qdev IDs: "-device virtio-net-pci,id=foo -net nic,id=foo -net nic,name=foo" happily creates three qdevs with ID "foo". That's because qdev relies on qemu_opts_create() to ensure unique IDs, but -net nic uses a different QemuOptsList, which means id is in a different namespace. And its name is not checked for uniqueness at all. -net nic and pci_add are legacy. Use -device and device_add if you want a NIC with a qdev ID. This reverts what's still left of commit eb54b6dc "qdev: add id= support for pci nics." Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
