Whatever you expose in the QOM tree is no longer internal. Other name?
Hi, Andreas,
If you mean "info qom-tree" here, can we still treat it as internal?
Since after all it's not exposed in QMP (while IMHO QMP is the
official protocol for QEMU clients). And IIUC some HMP commands do
dump some internal structs for debugging purpose (like: "info
ramblock").
Or, do you have any suggestion?
(I did think about something like "hidden-objects", but I believe they
are not hidden as well if we think they are not internal...)
Thanks,
Regards,
Andreas
