2016-10-25qapi: rename *qmp-*-visitor* to *qobject-*-visitor*Daniel P. Berrange
The QMP visitors have no direct dependency on QMP. It is valid to use them anywhere that one has a QObject. Rename them to better reflect their functionality as a generic QObject to QAPI converter. This is the first of three parts: rename the files. The next two parts will rename C identifiers. The split is necessary to make git rename detection work.

2016-07-06qapi: Add new visit_complete() functionEric Blake
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.

2016-07-06qapi: Add new visit_free() functionEric Blake
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); |} Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Message-Id: <1465490926-28625-5-git-send-email-eblake@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
2016-07-06qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_*Eric Blake
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.

2016-05-12qapi: Simplify semantics of visit_next_list()Eric Blake
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.

2016-05-12qapi: Split visit_end_struct() into piecesEric Blake
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().

2016-05-12qmp: Support explicit null during visitsEric Blake
Implement the new type_null() callback for the qmp input and output visitors. While we don't yet have a use for this in QAPI input (the generator will need some tweaks first), some potential usages have already been discussed on the list. Meanwhile, the output visitor could already output explicit null via type_any, but this gives us finer control. At any rate, it's easy to test that we can round-trip an explicit null through manual use of visit_type_null() wrapped by a virtual visit_start_struct() walk, even if we can't do the visit in a QAPI type. Repurpose the test_visitor_out_empty test, particularly since a future patch will tighten semantics to forbid use of qmp_output_get_qobject() without at least one intervening visit_type_*.

2016-05-12qapi: Add visit_type_null() visitorEric Blake
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.

2016-05-12qapi-visit: Add visitor.type classificationEric Blake
We have three classes of QAPI visitors: input, output, and dealloc. Currently, all implementations of these visitors have one thing in common based on their visitor type: the implementation used for the visit_type_enum() callback. But since we plan to add more such common behavior, in relation to documenting and further refining the semantics, it makes more sense to have the visitor implementations advertise which class they belong to, so the common qapi-visit-core code can use that information in multiple places. A later patch will better document the types of visitors directly in visitor.h. For this patch, knowing the class of a visitor implementation lets us make input_type_enum() and output_type_enum() become static functions, by replacing the callback function Visitor.type_enum() with the simpler enum member Visitor.type. Share a common assertion in qapi-visit-core as part of the refactoring. Move comments in opts-visitor.c to match the refactored layout.

2016-02-19qapi: Adjust layout of FooList typesEric Blake
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.

2016-02-08qmp: Don't abuse stack to track qmp-output rootEric Blake
The previous commit documented an inconsistency in how we are using the stack of qmp-output-visitor. Normally, pushing a single top-level object puts the object on the stack twice: once as the root, and once as the current container being appended to; but popping that struct only pops once. However, qmp_ouput_add() was trying to either set up the added object as the new root (works if you parse two top-level scalars in a row: the second replaces the first as the root) or as a member of the current container (works as long as you have an open container on the stack; but if you have popped the first top-level container, it then resolves to the root and still tries to add into that existing container). Fix the stupidity by not tracking two separate things in the stack. Drop the now-useless qmp_output_first() and qmp_output_last() while at it. Saved for a later patch: we still are rather sloppy in that qmp_output_get_object() can be called in the middle of a parse, rather than requiring that a visit is complete.

2016-02-08qmp: Fix reference-counting of qnull on empty output visitEric Blake
Commit 6c2f9a15 ensured that we would not return NULL when the caller used an output visitor but had nothing to visit. But in doing so, it added a FIXME about a reference count leak that could abort qemu in the (unlikely) case of SIZE_MAX such visits (more plausible on 32-bit). (Although that commit suggested we might fix it in time for 2.5, we ran out of time; fortunately, it is unlikely enough to bite that it was not worth worrying about during the 2.5 release.) This fixes things by documenting the internal contracts, and explaining why the internal function can return NULL and only the public facing interface needs to worry about qnull(), thus avoiding over-referencing the qnull_ global object. It does not, however, fix the stupidity of the stack mixing up two separate pieces of information; add a FIXME to explain that issue, which will be fixed shortly in a future patch.

The compiler is able to enforce that all clients match the changed interface in visitor-impl.h, even where two pointers are being swapped, because only one of the two pointers is const (if that were not the case, then C's looseness on treating 'char *' like 'void *' would have made review a bit harder).

2016-02-08qapi: Make all visitors supply uint64 callbacksEric Blake
Our qapi visitor contract supports multiple integer visitors, but left the type_uint64 visitor as optional (falling back on type_int64); which in turn can lead to awkward behavior with numbers larger than INT64_MAX (the user has to be aware of twos complement, and deal with negatives). This patch does not address the disparity in handling large values as negatives. It merely moves the fallback from uint64 to int64 from the visitor core to the visitors, where the issue can actually be fixed, by implementing the missing type_uint64() callbacks on top of the respective type_int64() callbacks, and with a FIXME comment explaining why that's wrong. With that done, we now have a type_uint64() callback in every driver, so we can make it mandatory from the core. And although the type_int64() callback can cover the entire valid range of type_uint{8,16,32} on valid user input, using type_uint64() to avoid mixed signedness makes more sense.

2016-02-08qapi: Prefer type_int64 over type_int in visitorsEric Blake
The qapi builtin type 'int' is basically shorthand for the type 'int64'. In fact, since no visitor was providing the optional type_int64() callback, visit_type_int64() was just always falling back to type_int(), cementing the equivalence between the types. However, some visitors are providing a type_uint64() callback. For purposes of code consistency, it is nicer if all visitors use the paired type_int64/type_uint64 names rather than the mismatched type_int/type_uint64. So this patch just renames the signed int callbacks in place, dropping the type_int() callback as redundant, and a later patch will focus on the unsigned int callbacks. Add some FIXMEs to questionable reuse of errp in code touched by the rename, while at it (the reuse works as long as the callbacks don't modify value when setting an error, but it's not a good example to set) - a later patch will then fix those. No change in functionality here, although further cleanups are in the pipeline.

Before commit 1d10b44, it crashed. Since then, it returns NULL, with a FIXME comment. The FIXME is valid: code that assumes QObject * can't be null exists. I'm not aware of a way to feed this problematic return value to code that actually chokes on null in the current code, but the next few commits will create one, failing "make check". Commit 481b002 solved a very similar problem by introducing a special null QObject. Using this special null QObject is clearly the right way to resolve this FIXME, so do that, and update the test accordingly. However, the patch isn't quite right: it messes up the reference counting. After about SIZE_MAX visits, the reference counter overflows, failing the assertion in qnull_destroy_obj(). Because that's many orders of magnitude more visits of nulls than we expect, we take this patch despite its flaws, to get the QMP introspection stuff in without further delay.

2015-06-22qobject: Use 'bool' for qboolEric Blake
We require a C99 compiler, so let's use 'bool' instead of 'int' when dealing with boolean values. There are few enough clients to fix them all in one pass.

2014-05-28qapi: Avoid output visitor crashing if it encounters a NULL valueMarcel Apfelbaum
A NULL value is not added to visitor's stack, but there is no check for that when the visitor tries to return that value, leading to QEMU crash.

2012-03-27qapi: fix double free in qmp_output_visitor_cleanup()Laszlo Ersek
Stack entries in QmpOutputVisitor are navigation links (weak references), except the bottom (ie. least recently added) entry, which owns the root QObject [1]. Make qmp_output_visitor_cleanup() drop the stack entries, then release the QObject tree by the root. Attempting to serialize an invalid enum inside a dictionary is an example for triggering the double free.

2011-11-17qapi: Check for negative enum valuesLuiz Capitulino
We don't currently check for negative enum values in qmp_output_type_enum(), this will very likely generate a segfault when triggered. However, it _seems_ that no code in tree can trigger this today.

2011-10-04qapi: modify visitor code generation for list iterationMichael Roth
Modify logic such that we never assign values to the list head argument to progress through the list on subsequent iterations, instead rely only on having our return value passed back in as an argument on the next call. Also update QMP I/O visitors and test cases accordingly, and add a missing test case for QmpOutputVisitor.

2011-07-21qapi: add QMP output visitorMichael Roth
Type of Visiter class that serves as the inverse of the input visitor: it takes a series of native C types and uses their values to construct a corresponding QObject. The command marshaling/dispatcher functions will use this to convert the output of QMP functions into a QObject that can be sent over the wire.
