2014-05-15qapi: Replace uncommon use of the error API by the common oneMarkus Armbruster1-84/+87
We commonly use the error API like this: err = NULL; foo(..., &err); if (err) { goto out; } bar(..., &err); Every error source is checked separately. The second function is only called when the first one succeeds. Both functions are free to pass their argument to error_set(). Because error_set() asserts no error has been set, this effectively means they must not be called with an error set. The qapi-generated code uses the error API differently: // *errp was initialized to NULL somewhere up the call chain frob(..., errp); gnat(..., errp); Errors accumulate in *errp: first error wins, subsequent errors get dropped. To make this work, the second function does nothing when called with an error set. Requires non-null errp, or else the second function can't see the first one fail. This usage has also bled into visitor tests, and two device model object property getters rtc_get_date() and balloon_stats_get_all(). With the "accumulate" technique, you need fewer error checks in callers, and buy that with an error check in every callee. Can be nice. However, mixing the two techniques is confusing. You can't use the "accumulate" technique with functions designed for the "check separately" technique. You can use the "check separately" technique with functions designed for the "accumulate" technique, but then error_set() can't catch you setting an error more than once. Standardize on the "check separately" technique for now, because it's overwhelmingly prevalent.

generate_visit_struct_fields() generates the base type's struct member name both with and without the field prefix. Harmless, because the field prefix is always empty there: only unboxed complex members have a prefix, and those can't have a base type. Clean it up anyway.

2014-05-15qapi: Replace start_optional()/end_optional() by optional()Markus Armbruster1-2/+1
Semantics of end_optional() differ subtly from the other end_FOO() callbacks: when start_FOO() succeeds, the matching end_FOO() gets called regardless of what happens in between. end_optional() gets called only when everything in between succeeds as well. Entirely undocumented, like all of the visitor API. The only user of Visitor Callback end_optional() never did anything, and was removed in commit 9f9ab46. I'm about to clean up error handling in the generated visitor code, and end_optional() is in my way. No users mean no test cases, and making non-trivial cleanup transformations without test cases doesn't strike me as a good idea. Drop end_optional(), and rename start_optional() to optional(). We can always go back to a pair of callbacks when we have an actual need.

2014-03-11qapi script: support enum type as discriminator in unionWenchao Xia1-9/+20
By default, any union will automatically generate a enum type as "[UnionName]Kind" in C code, and it is duplicated when the discriminator is specified as a pre-defined enum type in schema. After this patch, the pre-defined enum type will be really used as the switch case condition in generated C code, if discriminator is an enum field.

2014-03-03qapi: Clean up null checking in generated visitorsMarkus Armbruster1-7/+7
Visitors get passed a pointer to the visited object. The generated visitors try to cope with this pointer being null in some places, for instance like this: visit_start_optional(m, obj ? &(*obj)->has_name : NULL, "name", &err); visit_start_optional() passes its second argument to Visitor method start_optional. Three out of three methods dereference it unconditionally. I fail to see how this pointer could legitimately be null. All this useless null checking is highly redundant, which Coverity duly reports. About 200 times. Remove the useless null checks.

The discriminator for anonymous unions is the data type. This allows to have a union type that allows both of these: { 'file': 'my_existing_block_device_id' } { 'file': { 'filename': '/tmp/mydisk.qcow2', 'read-only': true } } Unions like this are specified in the schema with an empty dict as discriminator.

2012-03-27qapi: untangle next_listPaolo Bonzini1-2/+2
Right now, the semantics of next_list are complicated. The caller must: * call start_list * call next_list for each element *including the first* * on the first call to next_list, the second argument should point to NULL and the result is the head of the list. On subsequent calls, the second argument should point to the last node (last result of next_list) and next_list itself tacks the element at the tail of the list. This works for both input and output visitor, but having the visitor write memory when it is only reading the list is ugly. Plus, relying on *list to detect the first call is tricky and undocumented. We can initialize so->entry in next_list instead of start_list, leaving it NULL in start_list. This way next_list sees clearly whether it is on the first call---as a bonus, it discriminates the cases based on internal state of the visitor rather than external state. We can also pull the assignment of the list head from generated code up to next_list.

Make's multiple output syntax x.c x.h: x.template gen < x.template actually invokes the command once for x.c and once for x.h (with differing $@ in each invocation). During a parallel build, the two commands may be invoked in parallel; this opens up a race, where the second invocation trashes a file supposedly produced during the first, and now in use by a dependent command. The various qapi code generators are susceptible to this; fix by making them generate just one file per invocation.
