2019-06-12qapi: Add feature flags to struct typesKevin Wolf
Sometimes, the behaviour of QEMU changes without a change in the QMP syntax (usually by allowing values or operations that previously resulted in an error). QMP clients may still need to know whether they can rely on the changed behavior. Let's add feature flags to the QAPI schema language, so that we can make such changes visible with schema introspection. An example for a schema definition using feature flags looks like this: { 'struct': 'TestType', 'data': { 'number': 'int' }, 'features': [ 'allow-negative-numbers' ] } Introspection information then looks like this: { "name": "TestType", "meta-type": "object", "members": [ { "name": "number", "type": "int" } ], "features": [ "allow-negative-numbers" ] } This patch implements feature flags only for struct types. We'll implement them more widely as needed.

2019-05-13Makefile: Fix inclusion of the config-devices.mak.d Kconfig dependenciesThomas Huth
The Makefile tries to include device Kconfig dependencies via -include $(SUBDIR_DEVICES_MAK_DEP) and thus expects files that match *-softmmu/config-devices.mak.d ... however, the minikconf script currently generates files a la "*-softmmu-config.devices.mak.d" instead, so the dependency files simply got ignored so far. For example, after a "touch hw/arm/Kconfig", the arm-softmmu/config-devices.mak file is currently not re-generated. Fix it by putting the dependency files in the *-softmmu folders now.

2019-05-02tests/acceptance: look for target architecture in test tags firstCleber Rosa
A test can, optionally, be tagged for one or many architectures. If a test has been tagged for a single architecture, there's a high chance that the test won't run on other architectures. This changes the default order of choosing a default target architecture to use based on the 'arch' tag value first. The precedence order is for choosing a QEMU binary to use for a test is now: * qemu_bin parameter * arch parameter * arch tag value (for example, x86_64 if ":avocado: tags=arch:x86_64 is used) This means that if one runs: $ avocado run -p qemu_bin=/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 test.py No arch parameter or tag will influence the selection of the QEMU target binary. If one runs: $ avocado run -p arch=ppc64 test.py The target binary selection mechanism will attempt to find a binary such as "ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64". And finally, if one runs a test that is tagged (in its docstring) with "arch:aarch64": $ avocado run aarch64.py The target binary selection mechanism will attempt to find a binary such as "aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64". At this time, no provision is made to cancel the execution of tests if the arch parameter given (manually) does not match the test "arch" tag, but it may be a useful default behavior to be added in the future.

2019-05-02tests/acceptance: introduce arch parameter and attributeCleber Rosa

Now, when the "arch" test parameter is given, it will influence the selection of the default QEMU binary, if one is not given explicitly by means of the "qemu_img" parameter.

Instead of including the same list of devices for each target, set CONFIG_PCI to true, and make the devices default to present whenever PCI is available. However, s390x does not want all the PCI devices, so there is a separate symbol to enable them.

2019-03-07docs: Provide separate conf.py for each manual we wantPeter Maydell
By default Sphinx wants to build a single manual at once. For QEMU, this doesn't suit us, because we want to have separate manuals for "Developer's Guide", "User Manual", and so on, and we don't want to ship the Developer's Guide to end-users. However, we don't want to completely duplicate conf.py for each manual, and we'd like to continue to support "build all docs in one run" for third-party sites like readthedocs.org. Make the top-level conf.py support two usage forms: (1) as a common config file which is included by the conf.py for each of QEMU's manuals: in this case sphinx-build is run multiple times, once per subdirectory. (2) as a top level conf file which will result in building all the manuals into a single document: in this case sphinx-build is run once, on the top-level docs directory.

2019-02-22tests.acceptance: adds multi vm capability for acceptance testsCaio Carrara
This change adds the possibility to write acceptance tests with multi virtual machine support. It's done keeping the virtual machines objects stored in a test attribute (dictionary). This dictionary shouldn't be accessed directly but through the new method added `get_vm`. This new method accept a list of args (that will be added as virtual machine arguments) and an optional name argument. The name is the key that identify a single virtual machine along the test machines available. If a name without a machine is informed a new machine will be instantiated. The current usage of vm in tests will not be broken by this change since it keeps a property called vm in the base test class. This property only calls the new method `get_vm` with default parameters (no args and 'default' as machine name).

Different from plain Python unittest, it won't load or execute test code on an operation such as: $ avocado list tests/acceptance/ Before version 68.0, the logic implemented to identify INSTRUMENTED tests would require either the ":avocado: enable" or ":avocado: recursive" statement as a flag for tests that would not inherit directly from "avocado.Test".

From usermod(8) manual page: If the user is currently a member of a group which is not listed, the user will be removed from the group. This behaviour can be changed via the -a option, which appends the user to the current supplementary group list.

In particular it creates another set of tapsets, one per emulator: /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/qemu-*-log.stp These pre-define probe functions which simply call printf() on their arguments. The printf() format string is taken from the normal trace-events files, with a little munging to the format specifiers to cope with systemtap's more restrictive syntax. With this you can now do $ stap -e 'probe qemu.system.x86_64.log.qio*{}' 22806@1547735341399856820 qio_channel_socket_new Socket new ioc=0x56135d1d7c00 22806@1547735341399862570 qio_task_new Task new task=0x56135cd66eb0 source=0x56135d1d7c00 func=0x56135af746c0 opaque=0x56135bf06400 22806@1547735341399865943 qio_task_thread_start Task thread start task=0x56135cd66eb0 worker=0x56135af72e50 opaque=0x56135c071d70 22806@1547735341399976816 qio_task_thread_run Task thread run task=0x56135cd66eb0 We go one step further though and introduce a 'qemu-trace-stap' tool to make this even easier $ qemu-trace-stap run qemu-system-x86_64 'qio*' 22806@1547735341399856820 qio_channel_socket_new Socket new ioc=0x56135d1d7c00 22806@1547735341399862570 qio_task_new Task new task=0x56135cd66eb0 source=0x56135d1d7c00 func=0x56135af746c0 opaque=0x56135bf06400 22806@1547735341399865943 qio_task_thread_start Task thread start task=0x56135cd66eb0 worker=0x56135af72e50 opaque=0x56135c071d70 22806@1547735341399976816 qio_task_thread_run Task thread run task=0x56135cd66eb0 This tool is clever in that it will automatically change the SYSTEMTAP_TAPSET env variable to point to the directory containing the right set of probes for the QEMU binary path you give it.

2019-01-24qapi: Eliminate indirection through qmp_event_get_func_emit()Markus Armbruster
The qapi_event_send_FOO() functions emit events like this: QMPEventFuncEmit emit; emit = qmp_event_get_func_emit(); if (!emit) { return; } qmp = qmp_event_build_dict("FOO"); [put event arguments into @qmp...] emit(QAPI_EVENT_FOO, qmp); The value of qmp_event_get_func_emit() depends only on the program: * In qemu-system-FOO, it's always monitor_qapi_event_queue. * In tests/test-qmp-event, it's always event_test_emit. * In all other programs, it's always null. This is exactly the kind of dependence the linker is supposed to resolve; we don't actually need an indirection. Note that things would fall apart if we linked more than one QAPI schema into a single program: each set of qapi_event_send_FOO() uses its own event enumeration, yet they share a single emit function. Which takes the event enumeration as an argument. Which one if there's more than one? More seriously: how does this work even now? qemu-system-FOO wants QAPIEvent, and passes a function taking that to qmp_event_set_func_emit(). test-qmp-event wants test_QAPIEvent, and passes a function taking that to qmp_event_set_func_emit(). It works by type trickery, of course: typedef void (*QMPEventFuncEmit)(unsigned event, QDict *dict); void qmp_event_set_func_emit(QMPEventFuncEmit emit); QMPEventFuncEmit qmp_event_get_func_emit(void); We use unsigned instead of the enumeration type. Relies on both enumerations boiling down to unsigned, which happens to be true for the compilers we use. Clean this up as follows: * Generate qapi_event_send_FOO() that call PREFIX_qapi_event_emit() instead of the value of qmp_event_set_func_emit(). * Generate a prototype for PREFIX_qapi_event_emit() into qapi-events.h. * PREFIX_ is empty for qapi/qapi-schema.json, and test_ for tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json. It's qga_ for qga/qapi-schema.json, and doc-good- for tests/qapi-schema/doc-good.json, but those don't define any events. * Rename monitor_qapi_event_queue() to qapi_event_emit() instead of passing it to qmp_event_set_func_emit(). This takes care of qemu-system-FOO. * Rename event_test_emit() to test_qapi_event_emit() instead of passing it to qmp_event_set_func_emit(). This takes care of tests/test-qmp-event. * Add a qapi_event_emit() that does nothing to stubs/monitor.c. This takes care of all other programs that link code emitting QMP events. * Drop qmp_event_set_func_emit(), qmp_event_get_func_emit().

2018-08-28qapi: Add comments to aid debugging generated introspectionEric Blake
We consciously chose in commit 1a9a507b to hide QAPI type names from the introspection output on the wire, but added a command line option -u to unmask the type name when doing a debug build. The unmask option still remains useful to some other forms of automated analysis, so it will not be removed; however, when it is not in use, the generated .c file can be hard to read. At the time when we first introduced masking, the generated file consisted only of a monolithic C string, so there was no clean way to inject any comments. Later, in commit 7d0f982b, we switched the generation to output a QLit object, in part to make it easier for future addition of conditional compilation. In fact, commit d626b6c1 took advantage of this by passing a tuple instead of a bare object for encoding the output of conditionals. By extending that tuple, we can now interject strategic comments. For now, type name debug aid comments are only output once per meta-type, rather than at all uses of the number used to encode the type within the introspection data. But this is still a lot more convenient than having to regenerate the file with the unmask operation temporarily turned on - merely search the generated file for '"NNN" =' to learn the corresponding source name and associated definition of type NNN. The generated qapi-introspect.c changes only with the addition of comments, such as: | @@ -14755,6 +15240,7 @@ | { "name", QLIT_QSTR("[485]"), }, | {} | })), | + /* "485" = QCryptoBlockInfoLUKSSlot */ | QLIT_QDICT(((QLitDictEntry[]) { | { "members", QLIT_QLIST(((QLitObject[]) { | QLIT_QDICT(((QLitDictEntry[]) { Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20180827213943.33524-3-eblake@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> [Rebased, update to qapi-code-gen.txt corrected] Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
