How about this small draft:
Possible values for "type": tap, user, vde and socket. The 'info'
object contains all the parameters available via -netdev type,args.
Notice: vlan is still there, unless the support for it is removed, IMHO.
-> { "execute": "query-netdev" }
<- {
"return": [
{
"device": "tap.0",
"vlan": 0,
"type": "tap",
"info": {
"script": "/etc/qemu-ifup",
"downscript": "/etc/qemu-ifdown",
"ifname": "tap0",
},
{
"device": "user.0",
"type": "user",
"info": {
"net": "10.0.2.0",
"netmask": "255.255.255.0"
},
},
