Public bug reported:

For full customization of the default set of hardware qemu supports, a
user can pass -nodefaults and then manually specify each device they
want.  Many specific options document what they translate to in terms of
the full configuration model; however, the defaults for any given
platform don't.

I'd love to have documentation of the default hardware configuration, in
terms of qemu command-line options, to make it easy to run qemu
-nodefaults, paste in the default command-line, and edit it.

As this varies by emulated machine, perhaps qemu could have a command-
line option to print a specific machine (e.g. pc-i440fx-2.5) in the form
of qemu command-line options?

I think that just plain configuration in the manual could be enough.
The command line option is a very good idea, indeed.
Maybe also a monitor command could be helpful.

It's also necessary to document default hardware configuration of each
past release, because using defaults becomes a problem to keep guest OS
licenses when upgrading Qemu version.

This is an automated cleanup. This bug report has been moved to QEMU's
new bug tracker on gitlab.com and thus gets marked as 'expired' now.
