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 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: 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_*.

Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h, compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a similar job to this file and are under similar constraints." qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of 100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need. Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List. Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h, sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h comment quoted above similarly. This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on qapi-types.h shrinks only a little.

2016-03-18qapi: Don't special-case simple union wrappersEric Blake
Simple unions were carrying a special case that hid their 'data' QMP member from the resulting C struct, via the hack method QAPISchemaObjectTypeVariant.simple_union_type(). But by using the work we started by unboxing flat union and alternate branches, coupled with the ability to visit the members of an implicit type, we can now expose the simple union's implicit type in qapi-types.h: | struct q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper { | ImageInfoSpecificQCow2 *data; | }; | | struct q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper { | ImageInfoSpecificVmdk *data; | }; ... | struct ImageInfoSpecific { | ImageInfoSpecificKind type; | union { /* union tag is @type */ | void *data; |- ImageInfoSpecificQCow2 *qcow2; |- ImageInfoSpecificVmdk *vmdk; |+ q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper qcow2; |+ q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper vmdk; | } u; | }; Doing this removes asymmetry between QAPI's QMP side and its C side (both sides now expose 'data'), and means that the treatment of a simple union as sugar for a flat union is now equivalent in both languages (previously the two approaches used a different layer of dereferencing, where the simple union could be converted to a flat union with equivalent C layout but different {} on the wire, or to an equivalent QMP wire form but with different C representation). Using the implicit type also lets us get rid of the simple_union_type() hack. Of course, now all clients of simple unions have to adjust from using su->u.member to using su->u.member.data; while this touches a number of files in the tree, some earlier cleanup patches helped minimize the change to the initialization of a temporary variable rather than every single member access. The generated qapi-visit.c code is also affected by the layout change: |@@ -7393,10 +7393,10 @@ void visit_type_ImageInfoSpecific_member | } | switch (obj->type) { | case IMAGE_INFO_SPECIFIC_KIND_QCOW2: |- visit_type_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2(v, "data", &obj->u.qcow2, &err); |+ visit_type_q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper_members(v, &obj->u.qcow2, &err); | break; | case IMAGE_INFO_SPECIFIC_KIND_VMDK: |- visit_type_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk(v, "data", &obj->u.vmdk, &err); |+ visit_type_q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper_members(v, &obj->u.vmdk, &err); | break; | default: | abort(); Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Message-Id: <1458254921-17042-13-git-send-email-eblake@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
2016-02-19qapi: Don't box branches of flat unionsEric Blake
There's no reason to do two malloc's for a flat union; let's just inline the branch struct directly into the C union branch of the flat union. Surprisingly, fewer clients were actually using explicit references to the branch types in comparison to the number of flat unions thus modified. This lets us reduce the hack in qapi-types:gen_variants() added in the previous patch; we no longer need to distinguish between alternates and flat unions. The change to unboxed structs means that u.data (added in commit cee2dedb) is now coincident with random fields of each branch of the flat union, whereas beforehand it was only coincident with pointers (since all branches of a flat union have to be objects). Note that this was already the case for simple unions - but there we got lucky. Remember, visit_start_union() blindly returns true for all visitors except for the dealloc visitor, where it returns the value !!obj->u.data, and that this result then controls whether to proceed with the visit to the variant. Pre-patch, this meant that flat unions were testing whether the boxed pointer was still NULL, and thereby skipping visit_end_implicit_struct() and avoiding a NULL dereference if the pointer had not been allocated. The same was true for simple unions where the current branch had pointer type, except there we bypassed visit_type_FOO(). But for simple unions where the current branch had scalar type, the contents of that scalar meant that the decision to call visit_type_FOO() was data-dependent - the reason we got lucky there is that visit_type_FOO() for all scalar types in the dealloc visitor is a no-op (only the pointer variants had anything to free), so it did not matter whether the dealloc visit was skipped. But with this patch, we would risk leaking memory if we could skip a call to visit_type_FOO_fields() based solely on a data-dependent decision. But notice: in the dealloc visitor, visit_type_FOO() already handles a NULL obj - it was only the visit_type_implicit_FOO() that was failing to check for NULL. And now that we have refactored things to have the branch be part of the parent struct, we no longer have a separate pointer that can be NULL in the first place. So we can just delete the call to visit_start_union() altogether, and blindly visit the branch type; there is no change in behavior except to the dealloc visitor, where we now unconditionally visit the branch, but where that visit is now always safe (for a flat union, we can no longer dereference NULL, and for a simple union, visit_type_FOO() was already safely handling NULL on pointer types). Unfortunately, simple unions are not as easy to switch to unboxed layout; because we are special-casing the hidden implicit type with a single 'data' member, we really DO need to keep calling another layer of visit_start_struct(), with a second malloc; although there are some cleanups planned for simple unions in later patches. visit_start_union() and gen_visit_implicit_struct() are now unused. Drop them. Note that after this patch, the only remaining use of visit_start_implicit_struct() is for alternate types; the next patch will do further cleanup based on that fact.

2016-02-19qapi: Don't box struct branch of alternateEric Blake
There's no reason to do two malloc's for an alternate type visiting a QAPI struct; let's just inline the struct directly as the C union branch of the struct. Surprisingly, no clients were actually using the struct member prior to this patch outside of the testsuite; an earlier patch in the series added some testsuite coverage to make the effect of this patch more obvious. In qapi.py, c_type() gains a new is_unboxed flag to control when we are emitting a C struct unboxed within the context of an outer struct (different from our other two modes of usage with no flags for normal local variable declarations, and with is_param for adding 'const' in a parameter list). I don't know if there is any more pythonic way of collapsing the two flags into a single parameter, as we never have a caller setting both flags at once. Ultimately, we want to also unbox branches for QAPI unions, but as that touches a lot more client code, it is better as separate patches. But since unions and alternates share gen_variants(), I had to hack in a way to test if we are visiting an alternate type for setting the is_unboxed flag: look for a non-object branch. This works because alternates have at least two branches, with at most one object branch, while unions have only object branches. The hack will go away in a later patch. The generated code difference to qapi-types.h is relatively small: | struct BlockdevRef { | QType type; | union { /* union tag is @type */ | void *data; |- BlockdevOptions *definition; |+ BlockdevOptions definition; | char *reference; | } u; | }; The corresponding spot in qapi-visit.c calls visit_type_FOO(), which first calls visit_start_struct() to allocate or deallocate the member and handle a layer of {} from the JSON stream, then visits the members. To peel off the indirection and the memory management that comes with it, we inline this call, then suppress allocation / deallocation by passing NULL to visit_start_struct(), and adjust the member visit: | switch ((*obj)->type) { | case QTYPE_QDICT: |- visit_type_BlockdevOptions(v, name, &(*obj)->u.definition, &err); |+ visit_start_struct(v, name, NULL, 0, &err); |+ if (err) { |+ break; |+ } |+ visit_type_BlockdevOptions_fields(v, &(*obj)->u.definition, &err); |+ error_propagate(errp, err); |+ err = NULL; |+ visit_end_struct(v, &err); | break; | case QTYPE_QSTRING: | visit_type_str(v, name, &(*obj)->u.reference, &err); The visit of non-object fields is unchanged.

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.

2016-02-08qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placementEric Blake
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp). This can be a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to match JSON order. It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(), where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the 'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument. Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients. Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and those clients to match. Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle script to affect the rest of the code base: $ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'` I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings').

2015-12-17qapi: Simplify visiting of alternate typesEric Blake
Previously, working with alternates required two lookup arrays and some indirection: for type Foo, we created Foo_qtypes[] which maps each qtype to a value of the generated FooKind enum, then look up that value in FooKind_lookup[] like we do for other union types. This has a couple of subtle bugs. First, the generator was creating a call with a parameter '(int *) &(*obj)->type' where type is an enum type; this is unsafe if the compiler chooses to store the enum type in a different size than int, where assigning through the wrong size pointer can corrupt data or cause a SIGBUS. Related bug, not not fixed in this patch: qapi-visit.py's gen_visit_enum() generates a cast of its enum * argument to int *. Marked FIXME. Second, since the values of the FooKind enum start at zero, all entries of the Foo_qtypes[] array that were not explicitly initialized will map to the same branch of the union as the first member of the alternate, rather than triggering a desired failure in visit_get_next_type(). Fortunately, the bug seldom bites; the very next thing the input visitor does is try to parse the incoming JSON with the wrong parser, which normally fails; the output visitor is not used with a C struct in that state, and the dealloc visitor has nothing to clean up (so there is no leak). However, the second bug IS observable in one case: parsing an integer causes unusual behavior in an alternate that contains at least a 'number' member but no 'int' member, because the 'number' parser accepts QTYPE_QINT in addition to the expected QTYPE_QFLOAT (that is, since 'int' is not a member, the type QTYPE_QINT accidentally maps to FooKind 0; if this enum value is the 'number' branch the integer parses successfully, but if the 'number' branch is not first, some other branch tries to parse the integer and rejects it). A later patch will worry about fixing alternates to always parse all inputs that a non-alternate 'number' would accept, for now this is still marked FIXME in the updated test-qmp-input-visitor.c, to merely point out that new undesired behavior of 'ans' matches the existing undesired behavior of 'asn'. This patch fixes the default-initialization bug by deleting the indirection, and modifying get_next_type() to directly assign a QTypeCode parameter. This in turn fixes the type-casting bug, as we are no longer casting a pointer to enum to a questionable size. There is no longer a need to generate an implicit FooKind enum associated with the alternate type (since the QMP wire format never uses the stringized counterparts of the C union member names). Since the updated visit_get_next_type() does not know which qtypes are expected, the generated visitor is modified to generate an error statement if an unexpected type is encountered. Callers now have to know the QTYPE_* mapping when looking at the discriminator; but so far, only the testsuite was even using the C struct of an alternate types. I considered the possibility of keeping the internal enum FooKind, but initialized differently than most generated arrays, as in: typedef enum FooKind { FOO_KIND_A = QTYPE_QDICT, FOO_KIND_B = QTYPE_QINT, } FooKind; to create nicer aliases for knowing when to use foo->a or foo->b when inspecting foo->type; but it turned out to add too much complexity, especially without a client. There is a user-visible side effect to this change, but I consider it to be an improvement. Previously, the invalid QMP command: {"execute":"blockdev-add", "arguments":{"options": {"driver":"raw", "id":"a", "file":true}}} failed with: {"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Invalid parameter type for 'file', expected: QDict"}} (visit_get_next_type() succeeded, and the error comes from the visit_type_BlockdevOptions() expecting {}; there is no mention of the fact that a string would also work). Now it fails with: {"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Invalid parameter type for 'file', expected: BlockdevRef"}} (the error when the next type doesn't match any expected types for the overall alternate).

2015-11-09qapi: Simplify non-error testing in test-qmp-*Eric Blake
By using &error_abort, we can avoid a local err variable in situations where we expect success. It also has the nice effect that if the test breaks, the error message from error_abort tends to be nicer than that of g_assert(). This patch has an additional bonus of fixing several call sites that were passing &err to two different functions without checking it in between. In general that is unsafe practice; because if the first function sets an error, the second function could abort() if it tries to set a different error. We got away with it because we were asserting that err was NULL through the entire chain, but switching to &error_abort avoids the questionable practice up front.

2015-11-09qapi: Plug leaks in test-qmp-*Eric Blake
Make valgrind happy with the current state of the tests, so that it is easier to see if future patches introduce new memory problems without being drowned in noise. Many of the leaks were due to calling a second init without tearing down the data from an earlier visit. But since teardown is already idempotent, and we already register teardown as part of input_visitor_test_add(), it is nicer to just make init() safe to call multiple times than it is to have to make all tests call teardown. Another common leak was forgetting to clean up an error object, after testing that an error was raised. Another leak was in test_visitor_in_struct_nested(), failing to clean the base member of UserDefTwo. Cleaning that up left check_and_free_str() as dead code (since using the qapi_free_* takes care of recursion, and we don't want double frees). A final leak was in test_visitor_out_any(), which was reassigning the qobj local variable to a subset of the overall structure needing freeing; it did not result in a use-after-free, but was not cleaning up all the qdict. test-qmp-event and test-qmp-commands were already clean.

2015-11-09qapi: Use generated TestStruct machinery in testsEric Blake
Commit d88f5fd and friends first introduced the various test-qmp-* tests in 2011, with duplicated hand-rolled TestStruct machinery, to make sure the qapi visitor interface was tested. Later, commit 4f193e3 in 2013 added a .json file for further testing use by the files, but without consolidating any of the existing hand-rolled visitors. And with four copies, subtle differences have crept in, between the tests themselves (mainly whitespace differences, but also a question of whether to use NULL or "TestStruct" when calling visit_start_struct()) and from what the generator produces (the hand-rolled versions did not cater to partially-allocated objects, because they did not have a deallocation usage). Of course, just because the visitor interface is tested does not mean it is a sane interface; and future patches will be changing some of the visitor contracts. Rather than having to duplicate the cleanup work in each copy of the TestStruct visitor, and keep each hand-rolled copy in sync with what the generator supplies, we might as well just test what the generator should give us in the first place.

We have two issues with our qapi union layout: 1) Even though the QMP wire format spells the tag 'type', the C code spells it 'kind', requiring some hacks in the generator. 2) The C struct uses an anonymous union, which places all tag values in the same namespace as all non-variant members. This leads to spurious collisions if a tag value matches a non-variant member's name. Make the conversion to the new layout for testsuite code.

2015-11-02qapi: Unbox base membersEric Blake
Rather than storing a base class as a pointer to a box, just store the fields of that base class in the same order, so that a child struct can be directly cast to its parent. This gives less malloc overhead, less pointer dereferencing, and even less generated code. Compare to the earlier commit 1e6c1616a "qapi: Generate a nicer struct for flat unions" (although that patch had fewer places to change, as less of qemu was directly using qapi structs for flat unions). It also allows us to turn on automatic type-safe wrappers for upcasting to the base class of a struct. Changes to the generated code look like this in qapi-types.h: | struct SpiceChannel { |- SpiceBasicInfo *base; |+ /* Members inherited from SpiceBasicInfo: */ |+ char *host; |+ char *port; |+ NetworkAddressFamily family; |+ /* Own members: */ | int64_t connection_id; as well as additional upcast functions like qapi_SpiceChannel_base(). Meanwhile, changes to qapi-visit.c look like: | static void visit_type_SpiceChannel_fields(Visitor *v, SpiceChannel **obj, Error **errp) | { | Error *err = NULL; | |- visit_type_implicit_SpiceBasicInfo(v, &(*obj)->base, &err); |+ visit_type_SpiceBasicInfo_fields(v, (SpiceBasicInfo **)obj, &err); | if (err) { (the cast is necessary, since our upcast wrappers only deal with a single pointer, not pointer-to-pointer); plus the wholesale elimination of some now-unused visit_type_implicit_FOO() functions. Without boxing, the corner case of one empty struct having another empty struct as its base type now requires inserting a dummy member (previously, the 'Base *base' member sufficed). And now that we no longer consume a 'base' member in the generated C struct, we can delete the former negative struct-base-clash-base test.

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.

2015-05-05qapi: 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.

2014-05-15qapi: Replace uncommon use of the error API by the common oneMarkus Armbruster
We commonly use the error API like this: err = NULL; foo(..., &err); if (err) { goto out; } bar(..., &err); Every error source is checked separately. The second function is only called when the first one succeeds. Both functions are free to pass their argument to error_set(). Because error_set() asserts no error has been set, this effectively means they must not be called with an error set. The qapi-generated code uses the error API differently: // *errp was initialized to NULL somewhere up the call chain frob(..., errp); gnat(..., errp); Errors accumulate in *errp: first error wins, subsequent errors get dropped. To make this work, the second function does nothing when called with an error set. Requires non-null errp, or else the second function can't see the first one fail. This usage has also bled into visitor tests, and two device model object property getters rtc_get_date() and balloon_stats_get_all(). With the "accumulate" technique, you need fewer error checks in callers, and buy that with an error check in every callee. Can be nice. However, mixing the two techniques is confusing. You can't use the "accumulate" technique with functions designed for the "check separately" technique. You can use the "check separately" technique with functions designed for the "accumulate" technique, but then error_set() can't catch you setting an error more than once. Standardize on the "check separately" technique for now, because it's overwhelmingly prevalent.

2013-05-30qapi: pad GenericList value fields to 64 bitsMichael Roth
With the introduction of native list types, we now have types such as int64List where the 'value' field is not a pointer, but the actual 64-bit value. On 32-bit architectures, this can lead to situations where 'next' field offset in GenericList does not correspond to the 'next' field in the types that we cast to GenericList when using the visit_next_list() interface, causing issues when we attempt to traverse linked list structures of these types. To fix this, pad the 'value' field of GenericList and other schema-defined/native *List types out to 64-bits. This is less memory-efficient for 32-bit architectures, but allows us to continue to rely on list-handling interfaces that target GenericList to simply visitor implementations. In the future we can improve efficiency by defaulting to using native C array backends to handle list of non-pointer types, which would be more memory efficient in itself and allow us to roll back this change.
