[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 0/3] QMP: Introduce query-available-devices (was query-qdm)

[Miguel Di Ciurcio Filho]

This series introduces the documentation for the query-available-devices command
and the conversion of the monitor command 'info qdm' to QMP.

The documentation and code were based on a patch previously sent to qemu-devel
by Daniel P. Berrange:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2010-06/msg00931.html

Changelog from v3
-----------------
- Renamed the command from query-qdm to query-available-devices
- Fixed coding style when declaring the variable 'type'
- Fixed qlist leak in case the device does not have any property
- Split the series from 2 to 3 parts for easier review

Changelog from v2
-----------------
- added IDE and s390-virtio as possible values for "bus"
- specify that the "properties" list is optional, in case the device doesn't
have anything to be setup
- reworded the explanation of "creatable"
- reverted the qdev/qmp split, just use "type" and its json equivalent
representation
- do not list legacy stuff: PROP_TYPE_(VLAN|PTR|UNSPEC)

Changelog from v1
-----------------
- renamed "props" to "properties"
- updated the examples
- reworded the explanations of "name" and "description"
- split "type" into a json-object, adding "qmp" and "qdev"
- list all possible values for "bus"
- list all possible values for "qdev" on "type"
- list all possible values for "qmp" on "type"

Changes from the Daniel's original patch:
- Split the patch in two, taking out the documentation from the code
- Reworded some parts of the documentation and added data types
- Small cleanups and renamed do_info_devices() to do_info_qdm()
- Added do_info_qdm_print() to be used in the monitor

Regards,

Miguel
