2021-09-27qapi: Drop simple unionsMarkus Armbruster
Simple unions predate flat unions. Having both complicates the QAPI schema language and the QAPI generator. We haven't been using simple unions in new code for a long time, because they are less flexible and somewhat awkward on the wire. The previous commits eliminated simple union from the tree. Now drop them from the QAPI schema language entirely, and update mentions of "flat union" to just "union".

2021-03-23qapi: Fix to reject optional members with reserved namesMarkus Armbruster
check_type() fails to reject optional members with reserved names, because it neglects to strip off the leading '*'. Fix that. The stripping in check_name_str() is now useless. Drop. Also drop the "no leading '*'" assertion, because valid_name.match() ensures it can't fail.

2021-03-23tests/qapi-schema: Tweak to demonstrate buggy member name checkMarkus Armbruster
Member name 'u' and names starting with 'has-' or 'has_' are reserved for the generator. check_type() enforces this, covered by tests reserved-member-u and reserved-member-has. These tests neglect to cover optional members, where the name starts with '*'. Tweak reserved-member-u to fix that. Test reserved-member-has still covers non-optional members. This demonstrates the reserved member name check is broken for optional members. The next commit will fix it.

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>
2015-11-02qapi: Reserve 'u' member nameEric Blake
Now that we have separated union tag values from colliding with non-variant C names, by naming the union 'u', we should reserve this name for our use. Note that we want to forbid 'u' even in a struct with no variants, because it is possible for a future qemu release to extend QMP in a backwards-compatible manner while converting from a struct to a flat union. Fortunately, no existing clients were using this member name. If we ever find the need for QMP to have a member 'u', we could at that time relax things, perhaps by having c_name() munge the QMP member to 'q_u'. Note that we cannot forbid 'u' everywhere (by adding the rejection code to check_name()), because the existing QKeyCode enum already uses it; therefore we only reserve it as a struct type member name.
