about QEMU TLS

Hi all,

According to qemu docs [1], TLS parameters are specified as an object in the QEMU command line:

   -object tls-creds-x509,id=id,endpoint=endpoint,dir=/path/to/cred/dir ...

of which "endpoint" is a type of "QCryptoTLSCredsEndpoint" and can be either a "server" or a "client".
   
I'd like to know:

- When a VM is started with this config, is there a way (e.g. QMP) to change the value of "endpoint"?
  If possible, how to do this? or else after the first migration of a VM, the VM has "endpoint=server",
  which can't be migrated without stop / start.
   
- In which case does the QEMU reload its TLS certificate, e.g. when a QEMU VM has been run longer
  than the valid period of its TLS certificate?
 
- The migration is done by using HMP monitor on both source and target side. Is it possible to do it
  by using QMP commands?
