From 1110fbc35fab45b0b73eebd33a75fb792895eeb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Armbruster Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2023 15:57:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] docs/devel/qapi-code-gen: Don't reserve types ending with 'Kind' We reserved type names ending with 'Kind' because a simple union 'SomeSimpleUnion' generated both a struct type SomeSimpleUnion and an enum type SomeSimpleUnionKind. Gone since commit 4e99f4b12c0 (qapi: Drop simple unions). The commit neglected to update the documentation not to reserve type names ending with 'Kind'. Do that now.
