Subject: [PATCH 0/6] qapi: convert remaining "simple" intro sections
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 13:21:54 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911172200.227914-1-jsnow@redhat.com> (raw)

Hello, this work converts the remaining "simple" intro sections in the
QAPI schema to use the new syntax. This is part of our ongoing effort
to add the mythical "inliner" to our generated QMP documentation.

This batch covers structures that *are* likely to be inlined, and thus
have introductory paragraphs that are quite likely to be omitted when
the member documentation is copied into other contexts (e.g. as
arguments for command documentation, or as members of a branch for
commands that accept union arguments.)

"simple" here is a non-technical distinction that means a single
paragraph of text followed by an existing section boundary that
naturally already delineates what comprises the intro.

If you are a non-QAPI maintainer who has been CC'd on this series, you
may wish to review what information is being codified as the "intro"
(The indented paragraph) and keep in mind that in the future, this
text may not be visible to the end-user reading our QMP documentation
if this structure is utilized as the 'base' for another struct, used
as the arguments for a command or event, or used as branch of a
union. This series keeps it pretty simple, and every conversion herein
is being codified as "the intro", i.e. "not crucial to understanding
the behavior of the members of this struct".

This is the last of the brain-dead, simple conversions apart from any
new cases that may have been merged during the development of this
series. The remaining patches all convert or split longer paragraphs
and require more scrutiny.

We're almost back to reviewing actual code! Hang in there, everybody.
