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.

Title:
Please provide an option to print the default hardware configuration
as command-line options, to make -nodefaults easier to use
Status in QEMU:
New
Bug description:
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?
