# @SchemaInfo
#
# @name: the entity's name, inherited from @base.
-# Entities defined in the QAPI schema have the name defined in
-# the schema. Implicitly defined entities have generated
-# names. See docs/qapi-code-gen.txt section "Client JSON
-# Protocol introspection" for details.
+# Commands and events have the name defined in the QAPI schema.
+# Unlike command and event names, type names are not part of
+# the wire ABI. Consequently, type names are meaningless
+# strings here.
#
# All references to other SchemaInfo are by name.
#
-# Command and event names are part of the wire ABI, but type names are
-# not. Therefore, looking up a type by "well-known" name is wrong.
-# Look up the command or event, then follow the references.
-#
# @meta-type: the entity's meta type, inherited from @base.
#
# Additional members depend on the value of @meta-type.
