14# @device-list-properties:
15#
16# List properties associated with a device.
17#
18# @typename: the type name of a device
19#
20# Returns: a list of ObjectPropertyInfo describing a devices properties
21#
22# Note: objects can create properties at runtime, for example to describe
23#       links between different devices and/or objects. These properties
24#       are not included in the output of this command.

26# Since: 1.2

33# @device_add:
34#
35# Add a device.
36#
37# @driver: the name of the new device's driver
38#
39# @bus: the device's parent bus (device tree path)
40#
41# @id: the device's ID, must be unique
42#
43# Features:
44# @json-cli: If present, the "-device" command line option supports JSON
45#            syntax with a structure identical to the arguments of this
46#            command.
47# @json-cli-hotplug: If present, the "-device" command line option supports JSON
48#                    syntax without the reference counting leak that broke
49#                    hot-unplug

51# Notes:
52#
53# Additional arguments depend on the type.

55# 1. For detailed information about this command, please refer to the
56#    'docs/qdev-device-use.txt' file.
57#
58# 2. It's possible to list device properties by running QEMU with the
59#    "-device DEVICE,help" command-line argument, where DEVICE is the
60#    device's name
61#
62# Example:
63#
64# -> { "execute": "device_add",
65#      "arguments": { "driver": "e1000", "id": "net1",
66#                     "bus": "pci.0",
67#                     "mac": "52:54:00:12:34:56" } }
68# <- { "return": {} }
69#
70# TODO: This command effectively bypasses QAPI completely due to its
71#       "additional arguments" business.  It shouldn't have been added to
72#       the schema in this form.  It should be qapified properly, or
73#       replaced by a properly qapified command.

83# @device_del:
84#
85# Remove a device from a guest
86#
87# @id: the device's ID or QOM path
88#
89# Returns: Nothing on success
90#          If @id is not a valid device, DeviceNotFound
91#
92# Notes: When this command completes, the device may not be removed from the
93#        guest.  Hot removal is an operation that requires guest cooperation.
94#        This command merely requests that the guest begin the hot removal
95#        process.  Completion of the device removal process is signaled with a
96#        DEVICE_DELETED event. Guest reset will automatically complete removal
97#        for all devices.  If a guest-side error in the hot removal process is
98#        detected, the device will not be removed and a DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR
99#        event is sent.  Some errors cannot be detected.

119# Emitted whenever the device removal completion is acknowledged by the guest.
120# At this point, it's safe to reuse the specified device ID. Device removal can
121# be initiated by the guest or by HMP/QMP commands.
