+# @transaction:
+#
+# Executes a number of transactionable QMP commands atomically. If any
+# operation fails, then the entire set of actions will be abandoned and the
+# appropriate error returned.
+#
+# For external snapshots, the dictionary contains the device, the file to use for
+# the new snapshot, and the format. The default format, if not specified, is
+# qcow2.
+#
+# Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
+# contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
+# an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
+# the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
+# perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
+# current image file as the backing file for the new image.
+#
+# On failure, the original disks pre-snapshot attempt will be used.
+#
+# For internal snapshots, the dictionary contains the device and the snapshot's
+# name. If an internal snapshot matching name already exists, the request will
+# be rejected. Only some image formats support it, for example, qcow2, rbd,
+# and sheepdog.
+#
+# On failure, qemu will try delete the newly created internal snapshot in the
+# transaction. When an I/O error occurs during deletion, the user needs to fix
+# it later with qemu-img or other command.
+#
+# @actions: List of @TransactionAction;
+# information needed for the respective operations.
+#
+# @properties: structure of additional options to control the
+# execution of the transaction. See @TransactionProperties
+# for additional detail.
+#
+# Returns: nothing on success
+#
+# Errors depend on the operations of the transaction
+#
+# Note: The transaction aborts on the first failure. Therefore, there will be
+# information on only one failed operation returned in an error condition, and
+# subsequent actions will not have been attempted.
