##
##
# @ObjectPropertyInfo:
#
# @name: the name of the property
#
# @type: the type of the property. This will typically come in one of four
# forms:
#
# 1) A primitive type such as 'u8', 'u16', 'bool', 'str', or 'double'.
# These types are mapped to the appropriate JSON type.
#
# 2) A child type in the form 'child<subtype>' where subtype is a qdev
# device type name. Child properties create the composition tree.
#
# 3) A link type in the form 'link<subtype>' where subtype is a qdev
# device type name. Link properties form the device model graph.
#
# @description: if specified, the description of the property.
#
# @default-value: the default value, if any (since 5.0)
#
# Since: 1.2

##
# @qom-list:
#
# This command will list any properties of a object given a path in the object
# model.
#
# @path: the path within the object model. See @qom-get for a description of
# this parameter.
#
# Returns: a list of @ObjectPropertyInfo that describe the properties of the
# object.
#
# Since: 1.2
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "qom-list",
# "arguments": { "path": "/chardevs" } }
# <- { "return": [ { "name": "type", "type": "string" },
# { "name": "parallel0", "type": "child<chardev-vc>" },
# { "name": "serial0", "type": "child<chardev-vc>" },
# { "name": "mon0", "type": "child<chardev-stdio>" } ] }

##
# @qom-get:
#
# This command will get a property from a object model path and return the
# value.
#
# @path: The path within the object model. There are two forms of supported
# paths--absolute and partial paths.
#
# Absolute paths are derived from the root object and can follow child<>
# or link<> properties. Since they can follow link<> properties, they
# can be arbitrarily long. Absolute paths look like absolute filenames
# and are prefixed with a leading slash.
#
# Partial paths look like relative filenames. They do not begin
# with a prefix. The matching rules for partial paths are subtle but
# designed to make specifying objects easy. At each level of the
# composition tree, the partial path is matched as an absolute path.
# The first match is not returned. At least two matches are searched
# for. A successful result is only returned if only one match is
# found. If more than one match is found, a flag is return to
# indicate that the match was ambiguous.
#
# @property: The property name to read
#
# Returns: The property value. The type depends on the property
# type. child<> and link<> properties are returned as #str
# pathnames. All integer property types (u8, u16, etc) are
# returned as #int.
#
# Since: 1.2
#
# Example:
#
# 1. Use absolute path
#
# -> { "execute": "qom-get",
# "arguments": { "path": "/machine/unattached/device[0]",
# "property": "hotplugged" } }
# <- { "return": false }
#
# 2. Use partial path
#
# -> { "execute": "qom-get",
# "arguments": { "path": "unattached/sysbus",
# "property": "type" } }
# <- { "return": "System" }

# @value: a value who's type is appropriate for the property type. See @qom-get

# List properties associated with a QOM object.
#
# @typename: the type name of an object
#
# Note: objects can create properties at runtime, for example to describe
# links between different devices and/or objects. These properties
# are not included in the output of this command.

# Returns: a list of ObjectPropertyInfo describing object properties

##
# @object-add:
#
# Create a QOM object.
#
# @qom-type: the class name for the object to be created
#
# @id: the name of the new object
#
# @props: a dictionary of properties to be passed to the backend. Deprecated
# since 5.0, specify the properties on the top level instead. It is an
# error to specify the same option both on the top level and in @props.
#
# Additional arguments depend on qom-type and are passed to the backend
# unchanged.
#
# Returns: Nothing on success
# Error if @qom-type is not a valid class name
#
# Since: 2.0
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "object-add",

# Remove a QOM object.
#
# @id: the name of the QOM object to remove
#
# Returns: Nothing on success
# Error if @id is not a valid id for a QOM object
