2015-09-21qapi: Introduce a first class 'any' typeMarkus Armbruster
It's first class, because unlike '**', it actually works, i.e. doesn't require 'gen': false. '**' will go away next. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
2015-06-19qom: Make enum string tables const-correctDaniel P. Berrange
The enum string table parameters in various QOM/QAPI methods are declared 'const char *strings[]'. This results in const warnings if passed a variable that was declared as static const char * const strings[] = { .... }; Add the extra const annotation to the parameters, since neither the string elements, nor the array itself should ever be modified.

2014-09-26qapi: add visit_start_union and visit_end_unionMichael Roth
In some cases an input visitor might bail out on filling out a struct for various reasons, such as missing fields when running in strict mode. In the case of a QAPI Union type, this may lead to cases where the .kind field which encodes the union type is uninitialized. Subsequently, other visitors, such as the dealloc visitor, may use this .kind value as if it were initialized, leading to assumptions about the union type which in this case may lead to segfaults. For example, freeing an integer value. However, we can generally rely on the fact that the always-present .data void * field that we generate for these union types will always be NULL in cases where .kind is uninitialized (at least, there shouldn't be a reason where we'd do this purposefully). So pass this information on to Visitor implementation via these optional start_union/end_union interfaces so this information can be used to guard against the situation above. We will make use of this information in a subsequent patch for the dealloc visitor.

2014-05-15qapi: Replace start_optional()/end_optional() by optional()Markus Armbruster
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.

2014-05-15qapi: Remove unused Visitor callbacks start_handle(), end_handle()Markus Armbruster
These have never been called or implemented by anything, and their intended use is undocumented, like all of the visitor API. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com>
2013-07-26qapi: Anonymous unionsKevin Wolf
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. For this example you could take: { 'union': 'BlockRef', 'discriminator': {}, 'data': { 'definition': 'BlockOptions', 'reference': 'str' } } { 'type': 'ExampleObject', 'data: { 'file': 'BlockRef' } } Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
2013-07-26qapi: Add visitor for implicit structsKevin Wolf
These can be used when an embedded struct is parsed and members not belonging to the struct may be present in the input (e.g. parsing a flat namespace QMP union, where fields from both the base and one of the alternative types are mixed in the JSON object) Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
