[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 13/19] Add a query-target command to QMP

[Daniel P. Berrange]

Add a command to QMP to provide information about the QEMU binary
target being emulated.  This replaces the need to guess the architecture
and wordsize based on the 'qemu-system-XXXX' suffix. It also declares
what CPU execution engines are available in the binary (tcg, kvm, xen,
etc)

The data format looks like this

    {
        "arch": "i386",
        "wordsize": 32,
        "engines": [
            {
                "name": "tcg"
            },
            {
                "name": "kvm"
            },
            {
                "name": "xen"
            }
        ]
    }

There is no support for the legacy readline monitor
