2015-09-21qapi-types: Convert to QAPISchemaVisitor, fixing flat unionsMarkus Armbruster
Fixes flat unions to get the base's base members. Test case is from commit 2fc0043, in qapi-schema-test.json: { 'union': 'UserDefFlatUnion', 'base': 'UserDefUnionBase', 'discriminator': 'enum1', 'data': { 'value1' : 'UserDefA', 'value2' : 'UserDefB', 'value3' : 'UserDefB' } } { 'struct': 'UserDefUnionBase', 'base': 'UserDefZero', 'data': { 'string': 'str', 'enum1': 'EnumOne' } } { 'struct': 'UserDefZero', 'data': { 'integer': 'int' } } Patch's effect on UserDefFlatUnion: struct UserDefFlatUnion { /* Members inherited from UserDefUnionBase: */ + int64_t integer; char *string; EnumOne enum1; /* Own members: */ union { /* union tag is @enum1 */ void *data; UserDefA *value1; UserDefB *value2; UserDefB *value3; }; }; Flat union visitors remain broken. They'll be fixed next. Code is generated in a different order now, but that doesn't matter. The two guards QAPI_TYPES_BUILTIN_STRUCT_DECL and QAPI_TYPES_BUILTIN_CLEANUP_DECL are replaced by just QAPI_TYPES_BUILTIN. Two ugly special cases for simple unions now stand out like sore thumbs: 1. The type tag is named 'type' everywhere, except in generated C, where it's 'kind'. 2. QAPISchema lowers simple unions to semantically equivalent flat unions. However, the C generated for a simple unions differs from the C generated for its equivalent flat union, and we therefore need special code to preserve that pointless difference for now.

2015-09-21tests/qapi-schema: Convert test harness to QAPISchemaVisitorMarkus Armbruster
The old code prints the result of parsing (list of expression dictionaries), and partial results of semantic analysis (list of enum dictionaries, list of struct dictionaries). The new code prints a trace of a schema visit, i.e. what the back-ends are going to use. Built-in and array types are omitted, because they're boring.

2015-09-21qapi: New QAPISchema intermediate reperesentationMarkus Armbruster
The QAPI code generators work with a syntax tree (nested dictionaries) plus a few symbol tables (also dictionaries) on the side. They have clearly outgrown these simple data structures. There's lots of rummaging around in dictionaries, and information is recomputed on the fly. For the work I'm going to do, I want more clearly defined and more convenient interfaces. Going forward, I also want less coupling between the back-ends and the syntax tree, to make messing with the syntax easier. Create a bunch of classes to represent QAPI schemata. Have the QAPISchema initializer call the parser, then walk the syntax tree to create the new internal representation, and finally perform semantic analysis. Shortcut: the semantic analysis still relies on existing check_exprs() to do the actual semantic checking. All this code needs to move into the classes. Mark as TODO. Simple unions are lowered to flat unions. Flat unions and structs are represented as a more general object type. Catching name collisions in generated code would be nice. Mark as TODO. We generate array types eagerly, even though most of them aren't used. Mark as TODO. Nothing uses the new intermediate representation just yet, thus no change to generated files.

2015-09-15qapi: allow override of default enum prefix namingDaniel P. Berrange
The camel_to_upper() method applies some heuristics to turn a mixed case type name into an all-uppercase name. This is used for example, to generate enum constant name prefixes. The heuristics don't also generate a satisfactory name though. eg { 'enum': 'QCryptoTLSCredsEndpoint', 'data': ['client', 'server']} Results in Q_CRYPTOTLS_CREDS_ENDPOINT_CLIENT. This has an undesirable _ after the initial Q and is missing an _ between the CRYPTO & TLS strings. Rather than try to add more and more heuristics to try to cope with this, simply allow the QAPI schema to specify the desired enum constant prefix explicitly. eg { 'enum': 'QCryptoTLSCredsEndpoint', 'prefix': 'QCRYPTO_TLS_CREDS_ENDPOINT', 'data': ['client', 'server']} Now gives the QCRYPTO_TLS_CREDS_ENDPOINT_CLIENT name.

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.

2015-05-05qapi: Check for member name conflicts with a base classEric Blake
Our type inheritance for both 'struct' and for flat 'union' merges key/value pairs from the base class with those from the type in question. Although the C code currently boxes things so that there is a distinction between which member is referred to, the QMP wire format does not allow passing a key more than once in a single object. Besides, if we ever change the generated C code to not be quite so boxy, we'd want to avoid duplicate member names there, too. Fix a testsuite entry added in an earlier patch, as well as adding a couple more tests to ensure we have appropriate coverage. Ensure that collisions are detected, regardless of whether there is a difference in opinion on whether the member name is optional.

2015-05-05qapi: Support (subset of) \u escapes in stringsEric Blake
The handling of \ inside QAPI strings was less than ideal, and really only worked JSON's \/, \\, \", and our extension of \' (an obvious extension, when you realize we use '' instead of "" for strings). For other things, like '\n', it resulted in a literal 'n' instead of a newline. Of course, at the moment, we really have no use for escaped characters, as QAPI has to map to C identifiers, and we currently support ASCII only for that. But down the road, we may add support for default values for string parameters to a command or struct; if that happens, it would be nice to correctly support all JSON escape sequences, such as \n or \uXXXX. This gets us closer, by supporting Unicode escapes in the ASCII range. Since JSON does not require \OCTAL or \xXX escapes, and our QMP implementation does not understand them either, I intentionally reject it here, but it would be an easy addition if we desired it. Likewise, intentionally refusing the NUL byte means we don't have to worry about C strings being shorter than the qapi input.

2015-05-05qapi: Drop tests for inline nested structsEric Blake
A future patch will be using a 'name':{dictionary} entry in the QAPI schema to specify a default value for an optional argument; but existing use of inline nested structs conflicts with that goal. More precisely, a definition in the QAPI schema associates a name with a set of properties: Example 1: { 'struct': 'Foo', 'data': { MEMBERS... } } associates the global name 'Foo' with properties (meta-type struct) and MEMBERS... Example 2: 'mumble': TYPE within MEMBERS... above associates 'mumble' with properties (type TYPE) and (optional false) within type Foo The syntax of example 1 is extensible; if we need another property, we add another name/value pair to the dictionary (such as 'base':TYPE). The syntax of example 2 is not extensible, because the right hand side can only be a type. We have used name encoding to add a property: "'*mumble': 'int'" associates 'mumble' with (type int) and (optional true). Nice, but doesn't scale. So the solution is to change our existing uses to be syntactic sugar to an extensible form: NAME: TYPE --> NAME: { 'type': TYPE, 'optional': false } *ONAME: TYPE --> ONAME: { 'type': TYPE, 'optional': true } This patch fixes the testsuite to avoid inline nested types, by breaking the nesting into explicit types; it means that the type is now boxed instead of unboxed in C code, but makes no difference on the wire (and if desired, a later patch could change the generator to not do so much boxing in C). When touching code to add new allocations, also convert existing allocations to consistently prefer typesafe g_new0 over g_malloc0 when a type name is involved.

Referring to "type" as both a meta-type (built-in, enum, union, alternate, or struct) and a specific type (the name that the schema uses for declaring structs) is confusing. The confusion is only made worse by the fact that the generator mostly already refers to struct even when dealing with expr['type'].

Improve comments to better match our intentions where a struct (rather than any complex type) is required.

...or an array of dictionaries. Although we have to cater to existing commands, returning a non-dictionary means the command is not extensible (no new name/value pairs can be added if more information must be returned in parallel). By making the whitelist explicit, any new command that falls foul of this practice will have to be self-documenting, which will encourage developers to either justify the action or rework the design to use a dictionary after all. It's a little bit sloppy that we share a single whitelist among three clients (it's too permissive for each). If this is a problem, a future patch could tighten things by having the generator take the whitelist as an argument (as in scripts/qapi-commands.py --legacy-returns=...), or by having the generator output C code that requires explicit use of the whitelist (as in: #ifndef FROBNICATE_LEGACY_RETURN_OK # error Command 'frobnicate' should return a dictionary #endif then having the callers define appropriate macros).

2015-05-05qapi: Require valid namesEric Blake
Previous commits demonstrated that the generator overlooked various bad naming situations: - types, commands, and events need a valid name - enum members must be valid names, when combined with prefix - union and alternate branches cannot be marked optional Valid upstream names match [a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*; valid downstream names match __[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9._-]*. Enumerations match the weaker [a-zA-Z0-9._-]+ (in part thanks to QKeyCode picking an enum that starts with a digit, which we can't change now due to backwards compatibility). Rather than call out three separate regex, this patch just uses a broader combination that allows both upstream and downstream names, as well as a small hack that realizes that any enum name is merely a suffix to an already valid name prefix (that is, any enum name is valid if prepending _ fits the normal rules). We could reject new enumeration names beginning with a digit by whitelisting existing exceptions.

2015-05-05qapi: Unify type bypass and add testsEric Blake
For a few QMP commands, we are forced to pass an arbitrary type without tracking it properly in QAPI. Among the existing clients, this unnamed type was spelled 'dict', 'visitor', and '**'; this patch standardizes on '**', matching the documentation changes earlier in the series. Meanwhile, for the 'gen' key, we have been ignoring the value, although the schema consistently used "'no'" ('success-response' was hard-coded to checking for 'no'). But now that we can support a literal "false" in the schema, we might as well use that rather than ignoring the value or special-casing a random string. Note that these are one-way switches (use of 'gen':true is not the same as omitting 'gen'). Also, the use of '**' requires 'gen':false, but the use of 'gen':false does not mandate the use of '**'. There is no difference to the generated code. Add some tests on what we'd like to guarantee, although it will take later patches to clean up test results and actually enforce the use of a bool parameter.

2015-05-05qapi: Better error messages for duplicated expressionsEric Blake
The previous commit demonstrated that the generator overlooked duplicate expressions: - a complex type or command reusing a built-in type name - redeclaration of a type name, whether by the same or different metatype - redeclaration of a command or event - collision of a type with implicit 'Kind' enum for a union - collision with an implicit MAX enum constant Since the c_type() function in the generator treats all names as being in the same namespace, this patch adds a global array to track all known names and their source, to prevent collisions before it can cause further problems. While valid .json files won't trigger any of these cases, we might as well be nicer to developers that make a typo while trying to add new QAPI code.

2015-05-05qapi: Add tests of redefined expressionsEric Blake
Demonstrate that the qapi generator doesn't deal very well with redefined expressions. At the parse level, they are silently accepted; and while the testsuite just stops at parsing, I've further tested that many of them cause generator crashes or invalid C code if they were appended to qapi-schema-test.json. A later patch will tighten things up and adjust the testsuite to match.

2015-05-05qapi: Better error messages for bad expressionsEric Blake
The previous commit demonstrated that the generator overlooked some fairly basic broken expressions: - missing metataype - metatype key has a non-string value - unknown key in relation to the metatype - conflicting metatype (this patch treats the second metatype as an unknown key of the first key visited, which is not necessarily the first key the user typed) Add check_keys to cover these situations, and update testcases to match. A couple other tests (enum-missing-data, indented-expr) had to change since the validation added here occurs so early. Conversely, changes to ident-with-escape results show that we still have problems where our handling of escape sequences differs from true JSON, which will matter down the road if we allow arbitrary default string values for optional parameters (but for now is not too bad, as we currently can avoid unicode escaping as we don't need to represent anything beyond C identifier material). While valid .json files won't trigger any of these cases, we might as well be nicer to developers that make a typo while trying to add new QAPI code.

2015-05-05qapi: Add some expr testsEric Blake
Demonstrate that the qapi generator doesn't deal well with expressions that aren't up to par. Later patches will improve the expected results as the generator is made stricter. Only a few of the the added tests actually behave sanely at rejecting obvious problems or demonstrating success. Note that in some cases, we reject bad QAPI merely because our pseudo-JSON parser does not yet know how to parse numbers. This series does not address that, but when a later series adds support for numeric defaults of integer fields, the testsuite will ensure that we don't lose the error (and hopefully that the error message quality is improved).

2015-05-05qapi: Use 'alternate' to replace anonymous unionEric Blake
Previous patches have led up to the point where I create the new meta-type "'alternate':'Foo'". See the previous patches for documentation; I intentionally split as much work into earlier patches to minimize the size of this patch, but a lot of it is churn due to testsuite fallout after updating to the new type.

2015-05-05qapi: Segregate anonymous unions into alternates in generatorEric Blake
Special-casing 'discriminator == {}' for handling anonymous unions is getting awkward; since this particular type is not always a dictionary on the wire, it is easier to treat it as a completely different class of type, "alternate", so that if a type is listed in the union_types array, we know it is not an anonymous union. This patch just further segregates union handling, to make sure that anonymous unions are not stored in union_types, and splitting up check_union() into separate functions. A future patch will change the qapi grammar, and having the segregation already in place will make it easier to deal with the distinct meta-type.

2015-05-05qapi: Tighten checking of unionsEric Blake
Previous commits demonstrated that the generator had several flaws with less-than-perfect unions: - a simple union that listed the same branch twice (or two variant names that map to the same C enumerator, including the implicit MAX sentinel) ended up generating invalid C code - an anonymous union that listed two branches with the same qtype ended up generating invalid C code - the generator crashed on anonymous union attempts to use an array type - the generator was silently ignoring a base type for anonymous unions - the generator allowed unknown types or nested anonymous unions as a branch in an anonymous union Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
2015-05-05qapi: Forbid base without discriminator in unionsEric Blake
None of the existing QMP or QGA interfaces uses a union with a base type but no discriminator; it is easier to avoid this in the generator to save room for other future extensions more likely to be useful. An earlier commit added a union-base-no-discriminator test to ensure that we eventually give a decent error message; likewise, removing UserDefUnion outright is okay, because we moved all the tests we wish to keep into the tests of the simple union UserDefNativeListUnion in the previous commit. Now is the time to actually forbid simple union with base, and remove the last vestiges from the testsuite.

2015-05-05qapi: Add some union testsEric Blake
Demonstrate that the qapi generator doesn't deal well with unions that aren't up to par. Later patches will update the expected reseults as the generator is made stricter. A few tests work as planned, but most show poor or missing error messages. Of particular note, qapi-code-gen.txt documents 'base' only for flat unions, but the tests here demonstrate that we currently allow a 'base' to a simple union, although it is exercised only in the testsuite. Later patches will remove this undocumented feature, to give us more flexibility in adding other future extensions to union types. For example, one possible extension is the idea of a type-safe simple enum, where added fields tie the discriminator to a user-defined enum type rather than creating an implicit enum from the names in 'data'. But adding such safety on top of a simple enum with a base type could look ambiguous with a flat enum; besides, the documentation also mentions how any simple union can be represented by an equivalent flat union. So it will be simpler to just outlaw support for something we aren't using.
