From dd98e8481992741a6b5ec0bdfcee05c1c8f602d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Armbruster Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2018 18:40:14 +0200 Subject: qjson: Have qobject_from_json() & friends reject empty and blank The last case where qobject_from_json() & friends return null without setting an error is empty or blank input. Callers: * block.c's parse_json_protocol() reports "Could not parse the JSON options". It's marked as a work-around, because it also covered actual bugs, but they got fixed in the previous few commits. * qobject_input_visitor_new_str() reports "JSON parse error". Also marked as work-around. The recent fixes have made this unreachable, because it currently gets called only for input starting with '{'. * check-qjson.c's empty_input() and blank_input() demonstrate the behavior. * The other callers are not affected since they only pass input with exactly one JSON value or, in the case of negative tests, one error. Fail with "Expecting a JSON value" instead of returning null, and simplify callers.
