[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 00/12] Various qemu command line options help improvements

[Marc-André Lureau]

Hi,

This is a compilation of patches I have to improve command line help
support. The "qemu-option" patches have already been sent earlier, I
modified the first to fix an issue reported by Markus. The other
patches add support for -object help. A few related patches for QOM,
to fix/improve some minor issues.

v2: after Eric Blake review
- add "qdev-monitor: print help to stdout"
- add "cutils: add qemu_pstrcmp"
- use consistently "arg=type - desc" help format

Marc-André Lureau (12):
  qdev-monitor: print help to stdout
  cutils: add qemu_pstrcmp
  qemu-option: add help fallback to print the list of options
  qemu-option: improve qemu_opts_print_help() output
  qom/object: fix iterating properties over a class
  qom/object: register 'type' property as class property
  tests/qom-proplist: check duplicate "bv" property registration failed
  tests/qom-proplist: check properties are not listed multiple times
  tests/qom-proplist: check class properties iterator
  vl: handle -object help
  hostmem: add some properties description
  vl: list user creatable properties when 'help' is argument
