/*
 * This file describes the callback interface for implementing a QAPI
 * visitor.  For the client interface, see visitor.h.  When
 * implementing the callbacks, it is easiest to declare a struct with
 * 'Visitor visitor;' as the first member.  A callback's contract
 * matches the corresponding public functions' contract unless stated
 * otherwise.  In the comments below, some callbacks are marked "must
 * be set for $TYPE visits to work"; if a visitor implementation omits
 * that callback, it should also document that it is only useful for a
 * subset of QAPI.
 */

/*
 * There are four classes of visitors; setting the class determines
 * how QAPI enums are visited, as well as what additional restrictions
 * can be asserted.  The values are intentionally chosen so as to
 * permit some assertions based on whether a given bit is set (that
 * is, some assertions apply to input and clone visitors, some
 * assertions apply to output and clone visitors).
