[PATCH 06/17] sphinx/qapidoc: Do not emit TODO sections into user manual


From: Markus Armbruster
Subject: [PATCH 06/17] sphinx/qapidoc: Do not emit TODO sections into user manuals
Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2023 12:54:18 +0200

QAPI doc comments are for QMP users: they go into the "QEMU QMP
Reference Manual" and the "QEMU Storage Daemon QMP Reference Manual".

The doc comment TODO sections are for somebody else, namely for the
people who can do: developers.  Do not emit them into the user
manuals.

This elides the following TODOs:

* SchemaInfoCommand

  # TODO: @success-response (currently irrelevant, because it's QGA, not QMP)

  This is a note to developers adding introspection to the guest
  agent.  It makes no sense to users.

* @query-hotpluggable-cpus

  # TODO: Better documentation; currently there is none.

  This is a reminder for developers.  It doesn't help users.

* @device_add

  # TODO: This command effectively bypasses QAPI completely due to its
  #       "additional arguments" business.  It shouldn't have been added to
  #       the schema in this form.  It should be qapified properly, or
  #       replaced by a properly qapified command.

  Likewise.

Eliding them is an improvement.
