No, they are defined by QEMU: fw_cfg, pvpanic, ivshmem, various
test devices.  The ACPI stuff refers to QEMU's implementation of
hotplug, too, and there is the registry of PCI ids defined by
QEMU.  It's not all hardware actually---there is stuff like
vhost-user, qcow2, etc.---but generally it's for interoperability.

It's not quite user documentation and definitely not developer
documentation.
