[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 4/5] qmp: Add runnability information to query-cpu-definitions |
Date: |

Add a new optional field to query-cpu-definitions schema:
"unavailable-features". It will contain a list of QOM properties
that prevent the CPU model from running in the current host.

Changes v2 -> v3:
* Small documentation reword
* Suggested-by: Markus Armbruster <address@hidden>
Changes v1 -> v2:
* Remove @runnable field, non-empty @unavailable-features is
enough to report CPU model as not runnable.
* Documentation updates:
* Changed to "(since 2.7)";
* Add more details about the exact meaning of
unavailable-features, and what it would mean to see
read-only QOM properties in the list, and that
implementations can return "type" if there's
no extra information available;

+# @unavailable-features: #optional List of properties that prevent

+#
+# @unavailable-features is a list of QOM property names that
+# represent CPU model attributes that prevent the CPU from running.
+# If the QOM property is read-only, that means there's no known
+# way to make the CPU model run in the current host. Implementations
+# that choose not to provide specific information return the
+# property name "type".
+# If the property is read-write, it means that it MAY be possible
+# to run the CPU model in the current host if that property is
+# changed. Management software can use it as hints to suggest or
+# choose an alternative for the user, or just to generate meaningful
+# error messages explaining why the CPU model can't be used.
+# If @unavailable-features is an empty list, the CPU model is
+# runnable using the current host and machine-type.
+# If @unavailable-features is not present, runnability
+# information for the CPU is not available.
+#
# Since: 1.2.0
