Subject: [PATCH 0/3] vnc: remove "change vnc TARGET" and QMP change command, support "-vnc help"
Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:42:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210120144235.345983-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

The real driver for these patches is to send all QemuOpts user input
to qemu_opts_parse_noisily, for consistency in the command line
parsing code and to effectively outlaw "help" and "?" QemuOpts
suboptions.  vnc_parse is the only function that is still using
qemu_opts_parse.

In order to remove the non-command-line callers of vnc_parse,
I am removing the deprecated QMP change command but also its HMP
veneer "change vnc TARGET", whose usecase is somewhat unclear to
me.  "change vnc password" is still supported.

Finally, by switching to qemu_opts_parse_noisily, it is easy to
print a help message on "-vnc help".

Paolo Bonzini (3):
  hmp: remove "change vnc TARGET" command
  qmp: remove deprecated "change" command
  vnc: support "-vnc help"
