As can be seen from VmCheck_GetVersion() in open-vm-tools code,
CMD_GETVERSION should return VMX type in ECX register.

Default is to fake host as VMware ESX server. But user can control
this value by "-global vmport.vmx-type=X".

Can names be prefixed with VMPort pls? VMX has specific unrelated meaning.

Same everywhere.
I didn't thought it matters much given that this enum is only defined
locally in vmport.c.
But sure I can rename it in v2.

Property names matter more.
You mean to rename "vmx-version" and "vmx-type" to "vmport-vmx-version" and "vmport-vmx-type"? They are properties of vmport object so it seems redundant no? Also doesn't seem consistent which how properties of other objects in QEMU are named. (E.g. PVSCSI have "use_msg" property. Not "pvscsi_use_msg"). But will do as you will suggest. Just asking for guidance of what you are looking for.
