Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/4] qapi: Document visit_type_any() issues with keyval input
Date: Mon, 22 May 2017 18:42:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1495471335-23707-3-git-send-email-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1495471335-23707-1-git-send-email-armbru@redhat.com>
It's already documented in keyval.c (commit 0ee9ae7), but visitor.h
can use a note, too.
