  Well, I won't set the goal to convert all of them, because seems
too much work and Anthony has said that we may not want all the
handlers available under QMP. So, this has to be discussed (preferably
before GSoC starts for students).

What I would like to see is a clean break between the human monitor and QMP whereas the human monitor is implemented in terms of QMP.

For instance, the x and xp commands are not very useful for QMP. However, a generic memory read/write API would be pretty useful. The x/xp commands would be implemented in terms of the memory QMP API.

Likewise, the sum command can be implemented in terms of the above API.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori

  Also, I have two other projects that could related to the async
conversion:

- Simplify/Improve the QObject API
- Improve error handling (QError conversion involved)
