2019-10-22qapi: Speed up frontend testsMarkus Armbruster
"make check-qapi-schema" takes around 10s user + system time for me. With -j, it takes a bit over 3s real time. We have worse tests. It's still annoying when you work on the QAPI generator. Some 1.4s user + system time is consumed by make figuring out what to do, measured by making a target that does nothing. There's nothing I can do about that right now. But let's see what we can do about the other 8s. Almost 7s are spent running test-qapi.py for every test case, the rest normalizing and diffing test-qapi.py output. We have 190 test cases. If I downgrade to python2, it's 4.5s, but python2 is a goner. Hacking up test-qapi.py to exit(0) without doing anything makes it only marginally faster. The problem is Python startup overhead. Our configure puts -B into $(PYTHON). Running without -B is faster: 4.4s. We could improve the Makefile to run test cases only when the test case or the generator changed. But I'm after improvement in the case where the generator changed. test-qapi.py is designed to be the simplest possible building block for a shell script to do the complete job (it's actually a Makefile, not a shell script; no real difference). Python is just not meant for that. It's for bigger blocks. Move the post-processing and diffing into test-qapi.py, and make it capable of testing multiple schema files. Set executable bits while there. Running it once per test case now takes slightly longer than 8s. But running it once for all of them takes under 0.2s. Messing with the Makefile to run it only on the tests that need retesting is clearly not worth the bother. Expected error output changes because the new normalization strips off $(SRCDIR)/tests/qapi-schema/ instead of just $(SRCDIR)/. The .exit files go away, because there is no exit status to test anymore.

2019-09-28qapi: Change frontend error messages to start with lower caseMarkus Armbruster
Starting error messages with a capital letter complicates things when text can get interpolated both at the beginning and in the middle of an error message. The next patch will do that. Switch to lower case to keep it simpler. For what it's worth, the GNU Coding Standards advise the message "should not begin with a capital letter when it follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn’t the beginning of a sentence. (The sentence conceptually starts at the beginning of the line.)" While there, avoid breaking lines containing multiple arguments in the middle of an argument.

2014-05-08qapi: Use an explicit input fileLluís Vilanova
Use an explicit input file on the command-line instead of reading from standard input. It also outputs the proper file name when there's an error.

2013-07-29qapi.py: Restructure lexer and parserMarkus Armbruster
The parser has a rather unorthodox structure: Until EOF: Read a section: Generator function get_expr() yields one section after the other, as a string. An unindented, non-empty line that isn't a comment starts a new section. Lexing: Split section into a list of tokens (strings), with help of generator function tokenize(). Parsing: Parse the first expression from the list of tokens, with parse(), throw away any remaining tokens. In parse_schema(): record value of an enum, union or struct key (if any) in the appropriate global table, append expression to the list of expressions. Return list of expressions. Known issues: (1) Indentation is significant, unlike in real JSON. (2) Neither lexer nor parser have any idea of source positions. Error reporting is hard, let's go shopping. (3) The one error we bother to detect, we "report" via raise. (4) The lexer silently ignores invalid characters. (5) If everything in a section gets ignored, the parser crashes. (6) The lexer treats a string containing a structural character exactly like the structural character. (7) Tokens trailing the first expression in a section are silently ignored. (8) The parser accepts any token in place of a colon. (9) The parser treats comma as optional. (10) parse() crashes on unexpected EOF. (11) parse_schema() crashes when a section's expression isn't a JSON object. Replace this piece of original art by a thoroughly unoriginal design. Takes care of (1), (2), (5), (6) and (7), and lays the groundwork for addressing the others. Generated source files remain unchanged.
