qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add new clone visitor
We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.

qapi: Add new visit_free() function
Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:
| void qapi_free_ACPIOSTInfo(ACPIOSTInfo *obj)
| {
|- QapiDeallocVisitor *qdv;
| Visitor *v;
|
| if (!obj) {

qapi: Add new visit_complete() function
Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

qapi: Add new visit_complete() function
Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

qapi: Add new visit_free() function
Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:
| void qapi_free_ACPIOSTInfo(ACPIOSTInfo *obj)
| {
|- QapiDeallocVisitor *qdv;
| Visitor *v;
|
| if (!obj) {
| return;
| }
|
|- qdv = qapi_dealloc_visitor_new();
|- v = qapi_dealloc_get_visitor(qdv);
|+ v = qapi_dealloc_visitor_new();
| visit_type_ACPIOSTInfo(v, NULL, &obj, NULL);
|- qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup(qdv);
|+ visit_free(v);

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add new clone visitor
We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add new visit_complete() function
Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance

The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add new visit_complete() function
Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

qapi: Simplify semantics of visit_next_list()
The semantics of the list visit are somewhat baroque, with the
following pseudocode when FooList is used:
start()
for (prev = head; cur = next(prev); prev = &cur) {
visit(&cur->value)
}
Note that these semantics (advance before visit) requires that
the first call to next() return the list head, while all other
calls return the next element of the list; that is, every visitor
implementation is required to track extra state to decide whether
to return the input as-is, or to advance. It also requires an
argument of 'GenericList **' to next(), solely because the first
iteration might need to modify the caller's GenericList head, so
that all other calls have to do a layer of dereferencing.
Thankfully, we only have two uses of list visits in the entire
code base: one in spapr_drc (which completely avoids
visit_next_list(), feeding in integers from a different source
than uint8List), and one in qapi-visit.py. That is, all other
list visitors are generated in qapi-visit.c, and share the same
paradigm based on a qapi FooList type, so we can refactor how
lists are laid out with minimal churn among clients.
We can greatly simplify things by hoisting the special case
into the start() routine, and flipping the order in the loop
to visit before advance:
start(head)
for (tail = *head; tail; tail = next(tail)) {
visit(&tail->value)
}
With the simpler semantics, visitors have less state to track,
the argument to next() is reduced to 'GenericList *', and it
also becomes obvious whether an input visitor is allocating a
FooList during visit_start_list() (rather than the old way of
not knowing if an allocation happened until the first
visit_next_list()). As a minor drawback, we now allocate in
two functions instead of one, and have to pass the size to
both functions (unless we were to tweak the input visitors to
cache the size to start_list for reuse during next_list, but
that defeats the goal of less visitor state).
The signature of visit_start_list() is chosen to match
visit_start_struct(), with the new parameters after 'name'.
The spapr_drc case is a virtual visit, done by passing NULL for
list, similarly to how NULL is passed to visit_start_struct()
when a qapi type is not used in those visits. It was easy to
provide these semantics for qmp-output and dealloc visitors,
and a bit harder for qmp-input (several prerequisite patches
refactored things to make this patch straightforward). But it
turned out that the string and opts visitors munge enough other
state during visit_next_list() to make it easier to just
document and require a GenericList visit for now; an assertion
will remind us to adjust things if we need the semantics in the
future.
Several pre-requisite cleanup patches made the reshuffling of
the various visitors easier; particularly the qmp input visitor.

qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_*
Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

qapi: Split visit_end_struct() into pieces
As mentioned in previous patches, we want to call visit_end_struct()
functions unconditionally, so that visitors can release resources
tied up since the matching visit_start_struct() without also having
to worry about error priority if more than one error occurs.
Even though error_propagate() can be safely used to ignore a second
error during cleanup caused by a first error, it is simpler if the
cleanup cannot set an error. So, split out the error checking
portion (basically, input visitors checking for unvisited keys) into
a new function visit_check_struct(), which can be safely skipped if
any earlier errors are encountered, and leave the cleanup portion
(which never fails, but must be called unconditionally if
visit_start_struct() succeeded) in visit_end_struct().

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Adjust layout of FooList types
By sticking the next pointer first, we don't need a union with
64-bit padding for smaller types. On 32-bit platforms, this
can reduce the size of uint8List from 16 bytes (or 12, depending
on whether 64-bit ints can tolerate 4-byte alignment) down to 8.
It has no effect on 64-bit platforms (where alignment still
dictates a 16-byte struct); but fewer anonymous unions is still
a win in my book.
It requires visit_next_list() to gain a size parameter, to know
what size element to allocate; comparable to the size parameter
of visit_start_struct().
I debated about going one step further, to allow for fewer casts,
by doing:
typedef GenericList GenericList;
struct GenericList {
GenericList *next;
};
struct FooList {
GenericList base;
Foo *value;
};
so that you convert to 'GenericList *' by '&foolist->base', and
back by 'container_of(generic, GenericList, base)' (as opposed to
the existing '(GenericList *)foolist' and '(FooList *)generic').
But doing that would require hoisting the declaration of
GenericList prior to inclusion of qapi-types.h, rather than its
current spot in visitor.h; it also makes iteration a bit more
verbose through 'foolist->base.next' instead of 'foolist->next'.
Note that for lists of objects, the 'value' payload is still
hidden behind a boxed pointer. Someday, it would be nice to do:
struct FooList {
FooList *next;
Foo value;
};
for one less level of malloc for each list element. This patch
is a step in that direction (now that 'next' is no longer at a
fixed non-zero offset within the struct, we can store more than
just a pointer's-worth of data as the value payload), but the
actual conversion would be a task for another series, as it will
touch a lot of code.

qapi: Add new visit_free() function
Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:
| void qapi_free_ACPIOSTInfo(ACPIOSTInfo *obj)
| {
|- QapiDeallocVisitor *qdv;
| Visitor *v;
|
| if (!obj) {

qapi: Add new visit_complete() function
Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

qapi: Add new clone visitor
We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_*
Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.
Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.
Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.
Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
$ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings'). The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

qapi: Add new visit_free() function
Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:
| void qapi_free_ACPIOSTInfo(ACPIOSTInfo *obj)
| {
|- QapiDeallocVisitor *qdv;
| Visitor *v;
|
| if (!obj) {

qapi: Simplify semantics of visit_next_list()
The semantics of the list visit are somewhat baroque, with the
following pseudocode when FooList is used:
start()
for (prev = head; cur = next(prev); prev = &cur) {
visit(&cur->value)
}
Note that these semantics (advance before visit) requires that
the first call to next() return the list head, while all other
calls return the next element of the list; that is, every visitor
implementation is required to track extra state to decide whether
to return the input as-is, or to advance. It also requires an
argument of 'GenericList **' to next(), solely because the first
iteration might need to modify the caller's GenericList head, so
that all other calls have to do a layer of dereferencing.
Thankfully, we only have two uses of list visits in the entire
code base: one in spapr_drc (which completely avoids
visit_next_list(), feeding in integers from a different source
than uint8List), and one in qapi-visit.py. That is, all other
list visitors are generated in qapi-visit.c, and share the same
paradigm based on a qapi FooList type, so we can refactor how
lists are laid out with minimal churn among clients.
We can greatly simplify things by hoisting the special case
into the start() routine, and flipping the order in the loop
to visit before advance:
start(head)
for (tail = *head; tail; tail = next(tail)) {
visit(&tail->value)
}
With the simpler semantics, visitors have less state to track,
the argument to next() is reduced to 'GenericList *', and it
also becomes obvious whether an input visitor is allocating a
FooList during visit_start_list() (rather than the old way of
not knowing if an allocation happened until the first
visit_next_list()). As a minor drawback, we now allocate in
two functions instead of one, and have to pass the size to
both functions (unless we were to tweak the input visitors to
cache the size to start_list for reuse during next_list, but
that defeats the goal of less visitor state).
The signature of visit_start_list() is chosen to match
visit_start_struct(), with the new parameters after 'name'.
The spapr_drc case is a virtual visit, done by passing NULL for
list, similarly to how NULL is passed to visit_start_struct()
when a qapi type is not used in those visits. It was easy to
provide these semantics for qmp-output and dealloc visitors,
and a bit harder for qmp-input (several prerequisite patches
refactored things to make this patch straightforward). But it
turned out that the string and opts visitors munge enough other
state during visit_next_list() to make it easier to just
document and require a GenericList visit for now; an assertion
will remind us to adjust things if we need the semantics in the
future.
Several pre-requisite cleanup patches made the reshuffling of
the various visitors easier; particularly the qmp input visitor.

qapi: Add new clone visitor
We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.

qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_*
Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

implementation is required to track extra state to decide whether
to return the input as-is, or to advance. It also requires an
argument of 'GenericList **' to next(), solely because the first
iteration might need to modify the caller's GenericList head, so
that all other calls have to do a layer of dereferencing.
Thankfully, we only have two uses of list visits in the entire
code base: one in spapr_drc (which completely avoids
visit_next_list(), feeding in integers from a different source
than uint8List), and one in qapi-visit.py. That is, all other
list visitors are generated in qapi-visit.c, and share the same
paradigm based on a qapi FooList type, so we can refactor how
lists are laid out with minimal churn among clients.
We can greatly simplify things by hoisting the special case
into the start() routine, and flipping the order in the loop
to visit before advance:
start(head)
for (tail = *head; tail; tail = next(tail)) {
visit(&tail->value)
}
With the simpler semantics, visitors have less state to track,
the argument to next() is reduced to 'GenericList *', and it
also becomes obvious whether an input visitor is allocating a
FooList during visit_start_list() (rather than the old way of
not knowing if an allocation happened until the first
visit_next_list()). As a minor drawback, we now allocate in
two functions instead of one, and have to pass the size to
both functions (unless we were to tweak the input visitors to
cache the size to start_list for reuse during next_list, but
that defeats the goal of less visitor state).
The signature of visit_start_list() is chosen to match
visit_start_struct(), with the new parameters after 'name'.
The spapr_drc case is a virtual visit, done by passing NULL for
list, similarly to how NULL is passed to visit_start_struct()
when a qapi type is not used in those visits. It was easy to
provide these semantics for qmp-output and dealloc visitors,
and a bit harder for qmp-input (several prerequisite patches
refactored things to make this patch straightforward). But it
turned out that the string and opts visitors munge enough other
state during visit_next_list() to make it easier to just
document and require a GenericList visit for now; an assertion
will remind us to adjust things if we need the semantics in the
future.
Several pre-requisite cleanup patches made the reshuffling of
the various visitors easier; particularly the qmp input visitor.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Simplify semantics of visit_next_list()
The semantics of the list visit are somewhat baroque, with the
following pseudocode when FooList is used:
start()
for (prev = head; cur = next(prev); prev = &cur) {
visit(&cur->value)
}
Note that these semantics (advance before visit) requires that
the first call to next() return the list head, while all other
calls return the next element of the list; that is, every visitor
implementation is required to track extra state to decide whether
to return the input as-is, or to advance. It also requires an
argument of 'GenericList **' to next(), solely because the first
iteration might need to modify the caller's GenericList head, so
that all other calls have to do a layer of dereferencing.
Thankfully, we only have two uses of list visits in the entire
code base: one in spapr_drc (which completely avoids
visit_next_list(), feeding in integers from a different source
than uint8List), and one in qapi-visit.py. That is, all other
list visitors are generated in qapi-visit.c, and share the same
paradigm based on a qapi FooList type, so we can refactor how
lists are laid out with minimal churn among clients.

qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_*
Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

qapi: Add new visit_free() function
Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:
| void qapi_free_ACPIOSTInfo(ACPIOSTInfo *obj)
| {
|- QapiDeallocVisitor *qdv;
| Visitor *v;
|
| if (!obj) {
| return;
| }
|
|- qdv = qapi_dealloc_visitor_new();
|- v = qapi_dealloc_get_visitor(qdv);
|+ v = qapi_dealloc_visitor_new();
| visit_type_ACPIOSTInfo(v, NULL, &obj, NULL);
|- qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup(qdv);

qapi: Add new clone visitor
We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.

qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_*
Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add new visit_free() function
Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:
| void qapi_free_ACPIOSTInfo(ACPIOSTInfo *obj)
| {
|- QapiDeallocVisitor *qdv;
| Visitor *v;
|
| if (!obj) {
| return;
| }
|
|- qdv = qapi_dealloc_visitor_new();
|- v = qapi_dealloc_get_visitor(qdv);
|+ v = qapi_dealloc_visitor_new();

qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.
Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.
Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.
Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
$ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings'). The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

qapi: Simplify visiting of alternate types
Previously, working with alternates required two lookup arrays
and some indirection: for type Foo, we created Foo_qtypes[]
which maps each qtype to a value of the generated FooKind enum,
then look up that value in FooKind_lookup[] like we do for other
union types.
This has a couple of subtle bugs. First, the generator was
creating a call with a parameter '(int *) &(*obj)->type' where
type is an enum type; this is unsafe if the compiler chooses
to store the enum type in a different size than int, where
assigning through the wrong size pointer can corrupt data or
cause a SIGBUS.
Related bug, not not fixed in this patch: qapi-visit.py's
gen_visit_enum() generates a cast of its enum * argument to
int *. Marked FIXME.
Second, since the values of the FooKind enum start at zero, all
entries of the Foo_qtypes[] array that were not explicitly
initialized will map to the same branch of the union as the
first member of the alternate, rather than triggering a desired
failure in visit_get_next_type(). Fortunately, the bug seldom
bites; the very next thing the input visitor does is try to
parse the incoming JSON with the wrong parser, which normally
fails; the output visitor is not used with a C struct in that
state, and the dealloc visitor has nothing to clean up (so
there is no leak).
However, the second bug IS observable in one case: parsing an
integer causes unusual behavior in an alternate that contains
at least a 'number' member but no 'int' member, because the
'number' parser accepts QTYPE_QINT in addition to the expected
QTYPE_QFLOAT (that is, since 'int' is not a member, the type
QTYPE_QINT accidentally maps to FooKind 0; if this enum value
is the 'number' branch the integer parses successfully, but if
the 'number' branch is not first, some other branch tries to
parse the integer and rejects it). A later patch will worry
about fixing alternates to always parse all inputs that a
non-alternate 'number' would accept, for now this is still
marked FIXME in the updated test-qmp-input-visitor.c, to
merely point out that new undesired behavior of 'ans' matches
the existing undesired behavior of 'asn'.
This patch fixes the default-initialization bug by deleting the
indirection, and modifying get_next_type() to directly assign a
QTypeCode parameter. This in turn fixes the type-casting bug,
as we are no longer casting a pointer to enum to a questionable
size. There is no longer a need to generate an implicit FooKind
enum associated with the alternate type (since the QMP wire
format never uses the stringized counterparts of the C union
member names). Since the updated visit_get_next_type() does not
know which qtypes are expected, the generated visitor is
modified to generate an error statement if an unexpected type is
encountered.
Callers now have to know the QTYPE_* mapping when looking at the
discriminator; but so far, only the testsuite was even using the
C struct of an alternate types. I considered the possibility of
keeping the internal enum FooKind, but initialized differently
than most generated arrays, as in:
typedef enum FooKind {
FOO_KIND_A = QTYPE_QDICT,
FOO_KIND_B = QTYPE_QINT,
} FooKind;
to create nicer aliases for knowing when to use foo->a or foo->b
when inspecting foo->type; but it turned out to add too much
complexity, especially without a client.
There is a user-visible side effect to this change, but I
consider it to be an improvement. Previously,
the invalid QMP command:
{"execute":"blockdev-add", "arguments":{"options":
{"driver":"raw", "id":"a", "file":true}}}
failed with:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError",
"desc": "Invalid parameter type for 'file', expected: QDict"}}
(visit_get_next_type() succeeded, and the error comes from the
visit_type_BlockdevOptions() expecting {}; there is no mention of
the fact that a string would also work). Now it fails with:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError",
"desc": "Invalid parameter type for 'file', expected: BlockdevRef"}}
(the error when the next type doesn't match any expected types for
the overall alternate).

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.
Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.
Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.
Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
$ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings'). The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.
Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.
Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.
Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
$ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings'). The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.
Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.
Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.
Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
$ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to

qapi: Add new clone visitor
We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.

qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.
Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.
Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.
Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
$ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings'). The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

qapi: Document visitor interfaces, add assertions
The visitor interface for mapping between QObject/QemuOpts/string
and QAPI is scandalously under-documented, making changes to visitor
core, individual visitors, and users of visitors difficult to
coordinate. Among other questions: when is it safe to pass NULL,
vs. when a string must be provided; which visitors implement which
callbacks; the difference between concrete and virtual visits.
Correct this by retrofitting proper contracts, and document where some
of the interface warts remain (for example, we may want to modify
visit_end_* to require the same 'obj' as the visit_start counterpart,
so the dealloc visitor can be simplified). Later patches in this
series will tackle some, but not all, of these warts.
Add assertions to (partially) enforce the contract. Some of these
were only made possible by recent cleanup commits.

qapi: Add visit_type_null() visitor
Right now, qmp-output-visitor happens to produce a QNull result
if nothing is actually visited between the creation of the visitor
and the request for the resulting QObject. A stronger protocol
would require that a QMP output visit MUST visit something. But
to still be able to produce a JSON 'null' output, we need a new
visitor function that states our intentions. Yes, we could say
that such a visit must go through visit_type_any(), but that
feels clunky.
So this patch introduces the new visit_type_null() interface and
its no-op interface in the dealloc visitor, and stubs in the
qmp visitors (the next patch will finish the implementation).
For the visitors that will not implement the callback, document
the situation. The code in qapi-visit-core unconditionally
dereferences the callback pointer, so that a segfault will inform
a developer if they need to implement the callback for their
choice of visitor.
Note that JSON has a primitive null type, with the single value
null; likewise with the QNull type for QObject; but for QAPI,
we just have the 'null' value without a null type. We may
eventually want to add more support in QAPI for null (most likely,
we'd use it via an alternate type that permits 'null' or an
object); but we'll create that usage when we need it.
