include/qapi/visitor.h:

 * The @name parameter of visit_type_FOO() describes the relation
 * between this QAPI value and its parent container.  When visiting
 * the root of a tree, @name is ignored; when visiting a member of an
 * object, @name is the key associated with the value; when visiting a
 * member of a list, @name is NULL; and when visiting the member of an
 * alternate, @name should equal the name used for visiting the
 * alternate.
