The qdict_flatten() method will take a dict whose elements are further nested dicts/lists and flatten them by concatenating keys. The qdict_crumple() method aims to do the reverse, taking a flat qdict, and turning it into a set of nested dicts/lists. It will apply nesting based on the key name, with a '.' indicating a new level in the hierarchy. If the keys in the nested structure are all numeric, it will create a list, otherwise it will create a dict. If the keys are a mixture of numeric and non-numeric, or the numeric keys are not in strictly ascending order, an error will be reported. As an example, a flat dict containing { 'foo.0.bar': 'one', 'foo.0.wizz': '1', 'foo.1.bar': 'two', 'foo.1.wizz': '2' } will get turned into a dict with one element 'foo' whose value is a list. The list elements will each in turn be dicts. { 'foo': [ { 'bar': 'one', 'wizz': '1' }, { 'bar': 'two', 'wizz': '2' } ], } If the key is intended to contain a literal '.', then it must be escaped as '..'. ie a flat dict { 'foo..bar': 'wizz', 'bar.foo..bar': 'eek', 'bar.hello': 'world' } Will end up as { 'foo.bar': 'wizz', 'bar': { 'foo.bar': 'eek', 'hello': 'world' } } The intent of this function is that it allows a set of QemuOpts to be turned into a nested data structure that mirrors the nesting used when the same object is defined over QMP.
