[Qemu-devel] Structure / order of generated QAPI/QMP docs

[Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>]

We've split sub-schemas off qapi-schema.json to enable proper
MAINTAINERS coverage, and also because the complete schema has become
rather large.

The reference documentation generated with qapi2texi.py is in textual
schema order, with included sub-schemas inserted at the first include
directive (subsequent include directives have no effect).

Our sub-schemas start with a section title (except for
qapi/introspect.json, but I'm fixing that).  In other words, we derive
the structure of our reference documentation from the maintenance
domains.  The resulting structure is servicable, but it could use some
love.

To see the structure, run "make txt", then

    $ egrep '^[0-9]\.|^ --' -h docs/interop/qemu-qmp-ref.txt

Output with my "[PATCH 0/3] qapi-schema: Generated doc structure fixes"
applied appended for your convenience.

Observations:

* The section headings are generally sub-par.

* We have several grab-bags of miscellanea, one at the beginning, one in
  the middle, and one at the end:

  1.3 QAPI common definitions
  1.6 Other events
  1.10 QMP commands

  This needs to be rethought.

  An obvious first step is to factor out more sub-schemas along
  maintenance domains.  I'll do that next.
