19# means no QMP capabilities will be enabled. (since 2.12)

27# Notes: This command is valid exactly when first connecting: it must
28# be issued before any other command will be accepted, and will
29# fail once the monitor is accepting other commands. (see qemu

32# The QMP client needs to explicitly enable QMP capabilities,
33# otherwise all the QMP capabilities will be turned off by
