I believe we have the standard, which is qdev-properties.. which is (1) class properties, (2) allow variable bindings so no setter/getter needed, remembering them with pointer offsets. It goes back to last version where the question becomes: whether we want to make qdev-properties to be official QOM API, by removing qdev specific changes and move them over to qom/. Then make qdev only add its special things on top. Said that, considering if we want to make all things qom-set-able to migration in the future, another option is directly go with getter/setter that will do the property checks one by one. One benefit of that is we can then get rid of migrate_params_check() and migrate_caps_check() altogether. Maybe I should go with the latter, and forget qdev? Thanks, -- Peter Xu
