Subject: [PULL 1/8] docs/devel/qapi-code-gen: Don't reserve types ending with 'Kind'
Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2024 07:27:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240126062744.265588-2-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240126062744.265588-1-armbru@redhat.com>

We reserved type names ending with 'Kind' because a simple union
'SomeSimpleUnion' generated both a struct type SomeSimpleUnion and an
enum type SomeSimpleUnionKind.  Gone since commit 4e99f4b12c0 (qapi:
Drop simple unions).  The commit neglected to update the documentation
not to reserve type names ending with 'Kind'.  Do that now.
