[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH 1/2] Guest storage: Fix attaching type judgement

From: Royce Lv <lvroyce(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com&gt; When we only supportted cdrom attachment, we check if a cdrom is a valid block device by reading /proc info. Now we added disk attachment support, when a file is neither regular file nor url, we need to see if it is a block device according to its stats.
