[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 00/19] qapi: QMP introspection

[Markus Armbruster]

Dring up your tea, here comes the introspection series.

* PATCH 01-15: As usual when I touch the qapi code generators, I need
  double-digit patches just to get the mess cleaned up enough to admit
  change :)

* PATCH 16-18: Fix the JSON parser to recognize null.  With an axe.

* PATCH 19: Introspection.  This one's completely unpolished and only
  lightly tested.  There's no documentation apart from the commit
  message.  I hope this is good enough to let us discuss the general
  approach and the introspection schema.

Prior work: Amos's "[PATCH v4 0/5] QMP full introspection" from Jan 14
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-01/msg03013.html

Please note I'll be away from qemu-devel for three weeks.
