[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 15/18] rtc: add a dynamic property for retrieving the date

[Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>]

This really shows the power of dynamic object properties compared to qdev
static properties.

This property represents a complex structure who's format is preserved over the
wire.  This is enabled by visitors.

It also shows an entirely synthetic property that is not tied to device state.
