2017-03-16qapi: Back out doc comments added just to please qapi.pyMarkus Armbruster
This reverts commit 3313b61's changes to tests/qapi-schema/, except for tests/qapi-schema/doc-*. We could keep some of these doc comments to serve as positive test cases. However, they don't actually add to what we get from doc comment use in actual schemas, as we we don't test output matches expectations, and don't systematically cover doc comment features. Proper positive test coverage would be nice.

2017-01-16qapi: add qapi2texi scriptMarc-André Lureau
As the name suggests, the qapi2texi script converts JSON QAPI description into a texi file suitable for different target formats (info/man/txt/pdf/html...). It parses the following kind of blocks: Free-form: ## # = Section # == Subsection # # Some text foo with *emphasis* # 1. with a list # 2. like that # # And some code: # | $ echo foo # | -> do this # | <- get that # ## Symbol description: ## # @symbol: # # Symbol body ditto ergo sum. Foo bar # baz ding. # # @param1: the frob to frobnicate # @param2: #optional how hard to frobnicate # # Returns: the frobnicated frob. # If frob isn't frobnicatable, GenericError. # # Since: version # Notes: notes, comments can have # - itemized list # - like this # # Example: # # -> { "execute": "quit" } # <- { "return": {} } # ## That's roughly following the following EBNF grammar: api_comment = "##\n" comment "##\n" comment = freeform_comment | symbol_comment freeform_comment = { "# " text "\n" | "#\n" } symbol_comment = "# @" name ":\n" { member | tag_section | freeform_comment } member = "# @" name ':' [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment tag_section = "# " ( "Returns:", "Since:", "Note:", "Notes:", "Example:", "Examples:" ) [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment text = free text with markup Note that the grammar is ambiguous: a line "# @foo:\n" can be parsed both as freeform_comment and as symbol_comment. The actual parser recognizes symbol_comment. See docs/qapi-code-gen.txt for more details. Deficiencies and limitations: - the generated QMP documentation includes internal types - union type support is lacking - type information is lacking in generated documentation - doc comment error message positions are imprecise, they point to the beginning of the comment. - a few minor issues, all marked TODO/FIXME in the code Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20170113144135.5150-16-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> [test-qapi.py tweaked to avoid trailing empty lines in .out] Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
2015-09-04qapi: Simplify error reporting for array typesMarkus Armbruster
check_type() first checks and peels off the array type, then checks the element type. For two out of four error messages, it takes pains to report errors for "array of T" instead of just T. Odd. Let's examine the errors. * Unknown element type, e.g. tests/qapi-schema/args-array-unknown.json: Member 'array' of 'data' for command 'oops' uses unknown type 'array of NoSuchType' To make sense of this, you need to know that 'array of NoSuchType' refers to '[NoSuchType]'. Easy enough. However, simply reporting Member 'array' of 'data' for command 'oops' uses unknown type 'NoSuchType' is at least as easy to understand. * Element type's meta-type is inadmissible, e.g. tests/qapi-schema/returns-whitelist.json: 'returns' for command 'no-way-this-will-get-whitelisted' cannot use built-in type 'array of int' 'array of int' is technically not a built-in type, but that's pedantry. However, simply reporting 'returns' for command 'no-way-this-will-get-whitelisted' cannot use built-in type 'int' avoids the issue, and is at least as easy to understand. * The remaining two errors are unreachable, because the array checking ensures that value is a string. Thus, reporting some errors for "array of T" instead of just T works, but doesn't really improve things. Drop it.

2015-09-04tests/qapi-schema: Rename tests from data- to args-Markus Armbruster
Since every schema entity has 'data', the data- prefix conveys no information. These tests actually exercise commands. Only commands have arguments, so change the prefix to to args-. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
