This patch would need to update qapi-schema.json and qmp-commands.hx
to make use of the new arguments.

I don't think QEMU compiles cleanly after this patch.  It's important
to keep the build clean after every patch so that git-bisect(1) can be
used (if you hit a broken build during a bisect it makes things
harder).

However, I think the QMP/HMP changes should not be included in this
series unless you are sure the interface is stable.  When you convert
QEMUOptionsParameter will transaction or snapshot-blkdev-sync change?
If so, please only send the add-cow image format and leave the QMP/HMP
changes until you have the QemuOpts solution.

Ah, yes, sorry, the patch must be compiled with 5/6, HMP  now works like:
[-n] device [new-image-file] [format] [image-file] [image-format]

snapshot_blockdev /dev/ide-id0 1.add-cow add-cow t.raw raw

Also qmp's args_type:
.args_type  = "device:B,snapshot-file:s,format:s?,mode:s?,image-file:s?,image-format:s?",

Before  converting QEMUOptionsParameter, can the code be like this?

Thanks.

I think it's cleanest to submit just the image format without
snapshot_blockdev interface changes.  It's definitely not a good idea
to temporarily change the QMP/HMP interface if the
QEMUOptionsParameter conversion will change it again.
