zonecfg attributes for block devices use net-attr type about smartos-live

[jacques]

Trisk, can you private message me the entire json payload that you provided to create-machine?

zonecfg(1) seems to be happy with this:

zonecfg:6f3c52cf-dbdf-4e67-be17-b66da6a78202> select device match=/dev/zvol/rdsk/zones/6f3c52cf-dbdf-4e67-be17-b66da6a78202-disk0
zonecfg:6f3c52cf-dbdf-4e67-be17-b66da6a78202:device> info
PAGER less does not exist (No such file or directory).
device:
        match: /dev/zvol/rdsk/zones/6f3c52cf-dbdf-4e67-be17-b66da6a78202-disk0
        property: (name=index,value="0")
        property: (name=boot,value="true")
        property: (name=model,value="ahci")
        property: (name=size,value="40960")

net-attr is a misnomer. We should have chosen a different
name when we added this but we made a mistake when we
first added it to the "net" resource. This really should have
been named something more general since it is not specific
to networks. This is really a key-value sub-resource.

I used create-machine on a template containing:

 "disks": [
   {
     "boot": true,
     "model": "ahci",
     "size": 40960
   }

This ended up in /etc/zones/6f3c52cf-dbdf-4e67-be17-b66da6a78202.xml as:

 <device match="/dev/zvol/rdsk/zones/6f3c52cf-dbdf-4e67-be17-b66da6a78202-disk0">
   <net-attr name="index" value="0"/>
   <net-attr name="boot" value="true"/>
   <net-attr name="model" value="ahci"/>
   <net-attr name="size" value="40960"/>
 </device>

Unless I'm mistaken, net-attr attributes should only appear under the network sections.

We consider this a private interface and while the naming is unfortunate, we have no intention of changing it as there are existing deployments with this name.
