14# @device-list-properties:
15#
16# List properties associated with a device.
17#
18# @typename: the type name of a device
19#
20# Returns: a list of ObjectPropertyInfo describing a devices properties
21#
22# Note: objects can create properties at runtime, for example to describe
23#       links between different devices and/or objects. These properties
24#       are not included in the output of this command.

33# @device_add:
34#
35# @driver: the name of the new device's driver
36#
37# @bus: the device's parent bus (device tree path)
38#
39# @id: the device's ID, must be unique
40#
41# Additional arguments depend on the type.
42#
43# Add a device.
44#
45# Notes:
46# 1. For detailed information about this command, please refer to the
47#    'docs/qdev-device-use.txt' file.
48#
49# 2. It's possible to list device properties by running QEMU with the
50#    "-device DEVICE,help" command-line argument, where DEVICE is the
51#    device's name
52#
53# Example:
54#
55# -> { "execute": "device_add",
56#      "arguments": { "driver": "e1000", "id": "net1",
57#                     "bus": "pci.0",
58#                     "mac": "52:54:00:12:34:56" } }
59# <- { "return": {} }
60#
61# TODO: This command effectively bypasses QAPI completely due to its
62#       "additional arguments" business.  It shouldn't have been added to
63#       the schema in this form.  It should be qapified properly, or
64#       replaced by a properly qapified command.

73# @device_del:
74#
75# Remove a device from a guest
76#
77# @id: the device's ID or QOM path
78#
79# Returns: Nothing on success
80#          If @id is not a valid device, DeviceNotFound
81#
82# Notes: When this command completes, the device may not be removed from the
83#        guest.  Hot removal is an operation that requires guest cooperation.
84#        This command merely requests that the guest begin the hot removal
85#        process.  Completion of the device removal process is signaled with a
86#        DEVICE_DELETED event. Guest reset will automatically complete removal
87#        for all devices.

89# Since: 0.14

95# <- { "return": {} }
96#

105# @DEVICE_DELETED:
106#
107# Emitted whenever the device removal completion is acknowledged by the guest.
108# At this point, it's safe to reuse the specified device ID. Device removal can
109# be initiated by the guest or by HMP/QMP commands.
