+/**
+ * SECTION:object.h
+ * @title:Base Object Type System
+ * @short_description: interfaces for creating new types and objects
+ *
+ * The QEMU Object Model provides a framework for registering user creatable
+ * types and instantiating objects from those types. QOM provides the following
+ * features:
+ *
+ * - System for dynamically registering types
+ * - Support for single-inheritance of types
+ * - Multiple inheritance of stateless interfaces
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Creating a minimal type</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * #include "qdev.h"
+ *
+ * #define TYPE_MY_DEVICE "my-device"
+ *
+ * // No new virtual functions: we can reuse the typedef for the
+ * // superclass.
+ * typedef DeviceClass MyDeviceClass;
+ * typedef struct MyDevice
+ * {
+ * DeviceState parent;
+ *
+ * int reg0, reg1, reg2;
+ * } MyDevice;
+ *
+ * static const TypeInfo my_device_info = {
+ * .name = TYPE_MY_DEVICE,
+ * .parent = TYPE_DEVICE,
+ * .instance_size = sizeof(MyDevice),
+ * };
+ *
+ * static void my_device_register_types(void)
+ * {
+ * type_register_static(&my_device_info);
+ * }
+ *
+ * type_init(my_device_register_types)
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * In the above example, we create a simple type that is described by #TypeInfo.
+ * #TypeInfo describes information about the type including what it inherits
+ * from, the instance and class size, and constructor/destructor hooks.
+ *
+ * Every type has an #ObjectClass associated with it. #ObjectClass derivatives
+ * are instantiated dynamically but there is only ever one instance for any
+ * given type. The #ObjectClass typically holds a table of function pointers
+ * for the virtual methods implemented by this type.
+ *
+ * Using object_new(), a new #Object derivative will be instantiated. You can
+ * cast an #Object to a subclass (or base-class) type using
+ * object_dynamic_cast(). You typically want to define macro wrappers around
+ * OBJECT_CHECK() and OBJECT_CLASS_CHECK() to make it easier to convert to a
+ * specific type:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Typecasting macros</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * #define MY_DEVICE_GET_CLASS(obj) \
+ * OBJECT_GET_CLASS(MyDeviceClass, obj, TYPE_MY_DEVICE)
+ * #define MY_DEVICE_CLASS(klass) \
+ * OBJECT_CLASS_CHECK(MyDeviceClass, klass, TYPE_MY_DEVICE)
+ * #define MY_DEVICE(obj) \
+ * OBJECT_CHECK(MyDevice, obj, TYPE_MY_DEVICE)
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * # Class Initialization #
+ *
+ * Before an object is initialized, the class for the object must be
+ * initialized. There is only one class object for all instance objects
+ * that is created lazily.
+ *
+ * Classes are initialized by first initializing any parent classes (if
+ * necessary). After the parent class object has initialized, it will be
+ * copied into the current class object and any additional storage in the
+ * class object is zero filled.
+ *
+ * The effect of this is that classes automatically inherit any virtual
+ * function pointers that the parent class has already initialized. All
+ * other fields will be zero filled.
+ *
+ * Once all of the parent classes have been initialized, #TypeInfo::class_init
+ * is called to let the class being instantiated provide default initialize for
+ * its virtual functions. Here is how the above example might be modified
+ * to introduce an overridden virtual function:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Overriding a virtual function</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * #include "qdev.h"
+ *
+ * void my_device_class_init(ObjectClass *klass, void *class_data)
+ * {
+ * DeviceClass *dc = DEVICE_CLASS(klass);
+ * dc->reset = my_device_reset;
+ * }
+ *
+ * static const TypeInfo my_device_info = {
+ * .name = TYPE_MY_DEVICE,
+ * .parent = TYPE_DEVICE,
+ * .instance_size = sizeof(MyDevice),
+ * .class_init = my_device_class_init,
+ * };
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * Introducing new virtual methods requires a class to define its own
+ * struct and to add a .class_size member to the #TypeInfo. Each method
+ * will also have a wrapper function to call it easily:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Defining an abstract class</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * #include "qdev.h"
+ *
+ * typedef struct MyDeviceClass
+ * {
+ * DeviceClass parent;
+ *
+ * void (*frobnicate) (MyDevice *obj);
+ * } MyDeviceClass;
+ *
+ * static const TypeInfo my_device_info = {
+ * .name = TYPE_MY_DEVICE,
+ * .parent = TYPE_DEVICE,
+ * .instance_size = sizeof(MyDevice),
+ * .abstract = true, // or set a default in my_device_class_init
+ * .class_size = sizeof(MyDeviceClass),
+ * };
+ *
+ * void my_device_frobnicate(MyDevice *obj)
+ * {
+ * MyDeviceClass *klass = MY_DEVICE_GET_CLASS(obj);
+ *
+ * klass->frobnicate(obj);
+ * }
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * # Interfaces #
+ *
+ * Interfaces allow a limited form of multiple inheritance. Instances are
+ * similar to normal types except for the fact that are only defined by
+ * their classes and never carry any state. You can dynamically cast an object
+ * to one of its #Interface types and vice versa.
+ *
+ * # Methods #
+ *
+ * A <emphasis>method</emphasis> is a function within the namespace scope of
+ * a class. It usually operates on the object instance by passing it as a
+ * strongly-typed first argument.
+ * If it does not operate on an object instance, it is dubbed
+ * <emphasis>class method</emphasis>.
+ *
+ * Methods cannot be overloaded. That is, the #ObjectClass and method name
+ * uniquely identity the function to be called; the signature does not vary
+ * except for trailing varargs.
+ *
+ * Methods are always <emphasis>virtual</emphasis>. Overriding a method in
+ * #TypeInfo.class_init of a subclass leads to any user of the class obtained
+ * via OBJECT_GET_CLASS() accessing the overridden function.
+ * The original function is not automatically invoked. It is the responsibility
+ * of the overriding class to determine whether and when to invoke the method
+ * being overridden.
+ *
+ * To invoke the method being overridden, the preferred solution is to store
+ * the original value in the overriding class before overriding the method.
+ * This corresponds to |[ {super,base}.method(...) ]| in Java and C#
+ * respectively; this frees the overriding class from hardcoding its parent
+ * class, which someone might choose to change at some point.
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Overriding a virtual method</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * typedef struct MyState MyState;
+ *
+ * typedef void (*MyDoSomething)(MyState *obj);
+ *
+ * typedef struct MyClass {
+ * ObjectClass parent_class;
+ *
+ * MyDoSomething do_something;
+ * } MyClass;
+ *
+ * static void my_do_something(MyState *obj)
+ * {
+ * // do something
+ * }
+ *
+ * static void my_class_init(ObjectClass *oc, void *data)
+ * {
+ * MyClass *mc = MY_CLASS(oc);
+ *
+ * mc->do_something = my_do_something;
+ * }
+ *
+ * static const TypeInfo my_type_info = {
+ * .name = TYPE_MY,
+ * .parent = TYPE_OBJECT,
+ * .instance_size = sizeof(MyState),
+ * .class_size = sizeof(MyClass),
+ * .class_init = my_class_init,
+ * };
+ *
+ * typedef struct DerivedClass {
+ * MyClass parent_class;
+ *
+ * MyDoSomething parent_do_something;
+ * } DerivedClass;
+ *
+ * static void derived_do_something(MyState *obj)
+ * {
+ * DerivedClass *dc = DERIVED_GET_CLASS(obj);
+ *
+ * // do something here
+ * dc->parent_do_something(obj);
+ * // do something else here
+ * }
+ *
+ * static void derived_class_init(ObjectClass *oc, void *data)
+ * {
+ * MyClass *mc = MY_CLASS(oc);
+ * DerivedClass *dc = DERIVED_CLASS(oc);
+ *
+ * dc->parent_do_something = mc->do_something;
+ * mc->do_something = derived_do_something;
+ * }
+ *
+ * static const TypeInfo derived_type_info = {
+ * .name = TYPE_DERIVED,
+ * .parent = TYPE_MY,
+ * .class_size = sizeof(DerivedClass),
+ * .class_init = derived_class_init,
+ * };
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * Alternatively, object_class_by_name() can be used to obtain the class and
+ * its non-overridden methods for a specific type. This would correspond to
+ * |[ MyClass::method(...) ]| in C++.
+ *
+ * The first example of such a QOM method was #CPUClass.reset,
+ * another example is #DeviceClass.realize.
