Hi! Bus data is implicit in the parent class provided by QMP. For example, pci-device is the superclass of PCI devices, scsi-device is the superclass of SCSI devices, etc. qgraph is indeed similar, but it is only used by test cases, not by QEMU itself. The difference is that qgraph links together _drivers_ for the devices, and so it is limited to those devices that have tests. For some ideas behind qgraph, see https://wiki.qemu.org/Features/qtest_driver_framework. Paolo > > > > There is something called 'qgraph' in Qemu.
