+# @query-cpu-model-comparison:
+#
+# Compares two CPU models, returning how they compare in a specific
+# configuration. The results indicates how both models compare regarding
+# runnability. This result can be used by tooling to make decisions if a
+# certain CPU model will run in a certain configuration or if a compatible
+# CPU model has to be created by baselining.
+#
+# Usually, a CPU model is compared against the maximum possible CPU model
+# of a ceratin configuration (e.g. the "host" model for KVM). If that CPU
+# model is identical or a subset, it will run in that configuration.
+#
+# The result returned by this command may be affected by:
+#
+# * QEMU version: CPU models may look different depending on the QEMU version.
+# (Except for CPU models reported as "static" in query-cpu-definitions.)
+# * machine-type: CPU model may look different depending on the machine-type.
+# (Except for CPU models reported as "static" in query-cpu-definitions.)
+# * machine options (including accelerator): in some architectures, CPU models
+# may look different depending on machine and accelerator options. (Except for
+# CPU models reported as "static" in query-cpu-definitions.)
+# * "-cpu" arguments and global properties: arguments to the -cpu option and
+# global properties may affect expansion of CPU models. Using
+# query-cpu-model-expansion while using these is not advised.
+#
+# Some architectures may not support comparing CPU models.
+#
+# Returns: a CpuModelBaselineInfo. Returns an error if comparing CPU models is
+# not supported, if a model cannot be used, if a model contains
+# an unknown cpu definition name, unknown properties or properties
+# with wrong types.
