[RFC PATCH 00/10] hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Convert from QDev to plain Object

[Philippe Mathieu-Daudé]

No reason for vmcoreinfo to be based on QDev, since it
doesn't use any QDev API. Demote to plain Object.

Since we can only register one type, introduce a new
one for object: 'vmcore-info' (dash separator), keeping
'vmcoreinfo' device during the deprecation period.

Philippe Mathieu-Daudé (10):
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Declare QOM type using DEFINE_TYPES macro
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Rename opaque pointer as 'opaque'
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Un-inline vmcoreinfo_find()
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Rename VMCOREINFO_DEVICE -> TYPE_VMCOREINFO_DEVICE
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Convert to three-phase reset interface
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Move vmstate_vmcoreinfo[] around
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Factor vmcoreinfo_device_realize() out
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Implement 'vmcore-info' object
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Deprecate '-device vmcoreinfo'
  hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Remove legacy '-device vmcoreinfo'
