1. Stability Considerations

===========================

The current QMP command set (described in this file) may be useful for a

number of use cases, however it's limited and several commands have bad

defined semantics, specially with regard to command completion.

These problems are going to be solved incrementally in the next QEMU releases

and we're going to establish a deprecation policy for badly defined commands.

If you're planning to adopt QMP, please observe the following:

    1. The deprecation policy will take efect and be documented soon, please

       check the documentation of each used command as soon as a new release of

       QEMU is available

    2. DO NOT rely on anything which is not explicit documented

    3. Errors, in special, are not documented. Applications should NOT check

       for specific errors classes or data (it's strongly recommended to only

       check for the "error" key)

2. Regular Commands

3. Query Commands
