Subject: [PATCH 1/3] qdev: Change PropertyInfo method print() to return malloc'ed string
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 12:14:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251022101420.36059-2-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251022101420.36059-1-armbru@redhat.com>
Simpler (more so after the next commit), and no risk of truncation
because the caller's buffer is too small. Performance doesn't matter;
the method is only used for "info qdev".
