  Typedefs are used to eliminate the redundant 'struct' keyword.  It is the
  QEMU coding style.

  4. Block structure

  Every indented statement is braced; even if the block contains just one

Not sure what "standard library functions" includes but I think the
qemu prefix should be allowed whenever one needs to wrap external
code blocks into qemu.


That was the intent.

I don't feel very strongly about this though. I can call my stuff
wrap_xxx if I need to :)


A downside of a formal coding style document is that people start lawyering about it. Common sense can still be applied, if there is a use case that is similar to what is described, surely qemu_ can still hold.
