An outstanding issue is whether management applications can rely on the value of /machine/accel/type and output of qom-list-types command [2][3] to get current and present accels?
i.e. would it be ok if libvirt assumes that everything up to the first dash in the accel type is the name of the accel (as specified via -M accel=ACCEL flag) when it performs QEMU probing?
Hmm, I think it is not nice - we shouldn't have to parse the accel type names - IMHO typenames should be considered arbitrary opaque strings, even if they'll not be expected to change.
Thanks Daniel. I'll then send v2 of ad-hoc QMP/HMP query. By the way, do we need the HMP query if we get accel in QOM? Regards, Roman
