I'm confused.  This error is detected in scripts/qapi/parser.py, and it
is fatal.  Is the build broken for you?  It isn't for me.  Moreover,
where is @arch?  I can't see it anywhere close to the two spots the
patch patches.

I get the error after trying to fix what Eric commented here:

This one adds it to the correct spot.

qapi-code-gen.txt:

    Definition documentation starts with a line naming the definition,
    followed by an optional overview, a description of each argument (for
    commands and events), member (for structs and unions), branch (for
    alternates), or value (for enums), and finally optional tagged
    sections.

Let's apply this to SysEmuTarget's doc comment:

    ##
    # @SysEmuTarget:

Line naming the definition

    #
    # The comprehensive enumeration of QEMU system emulation ("softmmu")
    # targets. Run "./configure --help" in the project root directory, and
    # look for the *-softmmu targets near the "--target-list" option. The
    # individual target constants are not documented here, for the time
    # being.

Optional overview.

Missing here: a description of each value.  We should enforce such
descriptions.  We don't, mostly because we have a number of exceptions
where documentation would be bothersome, such as enum QKeyCode.

    #
    # Notes: The resulting QMP strings can be appended to the "qemu-system-"
    #        prefix to produce the corresponding QEMU executable name. This
    #        is true even for "qemu-system-x86_64".

A tagged section.

    #
    # Since: 3.0

Another tagged section.

    ##

Note that qapi-code-gen.txt prescribes no order for the tagged
sections.  They actually occur in pretty much any order:

    $ awk '/^##/ { if (on) { if (length(t) > 1) print t; t="" } on=!on } on && /^# (Returns|Since|Notes?|Examples?|TODO):/ { t=t substr($2, 1, 1) }' qapi/*json | sort | uniq -c
          1 ENS
          2 ES
          1 NES
          1 NETS
          1 NNSE
          1 NRS
          2 NRSE
         14 NS
         11 NSE
          1 RE
          6 RES
          4 RNS
          6 RNSE
         23 RS
         78 RSE
          1 RSEEEE
          3 RSEN
         12 RSNE
         55 SE
          4 SN
          2 SNE
          2 SRNE
          1 TRSE
          1 TS
          1 TSRE

If you think tightening their order would improve the documentation, we
should talk.

OK I'll use that then.

I was confused because I understood "@rx: since 5.0" as a tagged 
section, not as an "Optional overview".

It's actually "a description of a value", not "optional overview".
