Hi all,
The config info is included in qemu-options.def, current
help() defines QEMU_OPTIONS_GENERATE_HELP, and includes
qemu-options-wrapper.h, DEF macro will output the help
message of options to the stdio.
I tried to add two branches in qemu-options-wrapper.h, which
are used to generate two string arraies (one for option name,
one for help message)
Thy help message is too long, it's failed to output all message to
hmp monitor, always got a segfault, the max limitation maybe reached.
It's more clear to only output help message of one option,
eg: {"execute": "query-config", "arguments" : {"name": "boot"}}
{"return": {"config": "-boot [order=drives][,once=drives][,menu=on|off]\n
[,splash=sp_name][,splash-time=sp_time][,reboot-timeout=rb_time][,strict=on|off]\n
'drives': floppy (a), hard disk (c), CD-ROM (d), network (n)\n
'sp_name': the file's name that would be passed to bios as logo picture, if
menu=on\n
'sp_time': the period that splash picture last if menu=on, unit is ms\n
'rb_timeout': the timeout before guest reboot when boot failed, unit is
ms\n"}}
But info command of hmp doesn't support parameter
(eg: (hmp) info config boot)
Q1) Is my patch ok for resolve the issue in last email (libvirt can check
the help message of each option)?
Q2) Can we only added a command for qmp monitor?
Q3) Is it ok to output all help message for hmp (info config)?
Q4) query-config or query-config-schema ?
