[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 0/8] qom: misc fixes & enhancements to support TLS work

[Daniel P. Berrange]

This series contains the 7^H8 generic QOM API fixes and enhancements
that I previously posted as part of the large series refactoring
and extending the TLS support in QEMU:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-04/msg02038.html

I'm sending it separately, since the patches are reasonably well
self-contained and thus hopefully suitable for quicker review and
merge.

The changes in this posting are in response to Andreas' feedback
on v3.

Changed in v5:

 - Fix test suite build -Wunused-value warning on some GCC versions
   reported by Peter Maydell

Changed in v4:

 - Introduce object_get_objects_root() to replace duplicated
   container_get(object_get_root(), "/objects") calls
 - Add object_set_prop[sv]()and call them to populate properties
   from object_new_with_prop[sv]() constructor
 - Use <programlisting> in inline docs example
 - Fix naming for '...' vs 'va_list' arg method variants to
   match QEMU convention (va_list one has the 'v' suffix)
 - Conditionally use __attribute__((sentinel)) only on new
   enough GCC (>= 4.0)
 - Use a local Error * object where Error **errp could be NULL
 - Change class def to use parent_obj and parent_class for
   first struct member
 - Use g_assert_cmpstr() in test case assertions on strings
 - Other misc typos in docs, commit messages and code.

Changed in v3:

 - Fix test suite additions for change in object_new_propv API

Changed in v2:

 - Pass "Object * parent" instead of "char *path" paremeter
 - Rely on stable reference from parent to keep new object alive
 - Use object_unparent() where appropriate

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 1/8] backends: fix typename of 'policy' enum property in hostmem obj

[Daniel P. Berrange]

The 'policy' property was being registered with a typename of
'str', but it is in fact an enum of the 'HostMemPolicy' type.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 2/8] doc: document user creatable object types in help text

[Daniel P. Berrange]

The QEMU help for -object is essentially useless, just giving users
the generic syntax. Move it down into its own section and introduce
a nested table where each user creatable object can be documented.
The existing memory-backend-file, rng-random and rng-egd object
types are documented.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 3/8] vl: create (most) objects before creating chardev backends

[Daniel P. Berrange]

Some types of object must be created before chardevs, other types of
object must be created after chardevs. As such there is no option but
to create objects in two phases.

This takes the decision to create as many object types as possible
right away before anyother backends are created, and only delay
creation of those few which have an explicit dependency on the
chardevs. Hopefully the set which need delaying will remain small
over time.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 5/8] qom: add object_new_with_props / object_new_withpropv constructors

[Daniel P. Berrange]

It is reasonably common to want to create an object, set a
number of properties, register it in the hierarchy and then
mark it as complete (if a user creatable type). This requires
quite a lot of error prone, verbose, boilerplate code to achieve.

First a pair of methods object_set_props / object_set_propv
are added which allow for a list of objects to be set in
one single API call.

Then object_new_with_props / object_new_with_propv constructors
are added which simplify the sequence of calls to create an
object, populate properties, register in the object composition
tree and mark the object complete, into a single method call.

Usage would be:

   Error *err = NULL;
   Object *obj;
   obj = object_new_with_propv(TYPE_MEMORY_BACKEND_FILE,
                               object_get_objects_root(),
                               "hostmem0",
                               &err,
                               "share", "yes",
                               "mem-path", "/dev/shm/somefile",
                               "prealloc", "yes",
                               "size", "1048576",
                               NULL);

Note all property values are passed in string form and will
be parsed into their required data types, using normal QOM
semantics for parsing from string format.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 6/8] qom: make enum string tables const-correct

[Daniel P. Berrange]

The enum string table parameters in various QOM/QAPI methods
are declared 'const char *strings[]'. This results in const
warnings if passed a variable that was declared as

   static const char * const strings[] = { .... };

Add the extra const annotation to the parameters, since
neither the string elements, nor the array itself should
ever be modified.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 7/8] qom: add a object_property_add_enum helper method

[Daniel P. Berrange]

A QOM property can be parsed as enum using the visit_type_enum()
helper method, but this forces callers to use the more complex
generic object_property_add() method when registering it. It
also requires that users of that object have access to the
string map when they want to read the property value.

This patch introduces a specialized object_property_add_enum()
method which simplifies the use of enum properties, so the
setters/getters directly get passed the int value.

  typedef enum {
     MYDEV_TYPE_FROG,
     MYDEV_TYPE_ALLIGATOR,
     MYDEV_TYPE_PLATYPUS,

     MYDEV_TYPE_LAST
  } MyDevType;

Then provide a table of enum <-> string mappings

  static const char *const mydevtypemap[MYDEV_TYPE_LAST + 1] = {
     [MYDEV_TYPE_FROG] = "frog",
     [MYDEV_TYPE_ALLIGATOR] = "alligator",
     [MYDEV_TYPE_PLATYPUS] = "platypus",
     [MYDEV_TYPE_LAST] = NULL,
  };

Assuming an object struct of

   typedef struct {
      Object parent;
      MyDevType devtype;
      ...other fields...
   } MyDev;

The property can then be registered as follows:

   static int mydev_prop_get_devtype(Object *obj,
                                     Error **errp G_GNUC_UNUSED)
   {
       MyDev *dev = MYDEV(obj);

       return dev->devtype;
   }

   static void mydev_prop_set_devtype(Object *obj,
                                      int value,
                                      Error **errp G_GNUC_UNUSED)
   {
       MyDev *dev = MYDEV(obj);

       dev->endpoint = value;
   }

   object_property_add_enum(obj, "devtype",
                            mydevtypemap, "MyDevType",
                            mydev_prop_get_devtype,
                            mydev_prop_set_devtype,
                            NULL);

Note there is no need to check the range of 'value' in
the setter, because the string->enum conversion code will
have already done that and reported an error as required.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 8/8] qom: don't pass string table to object_get_enum method

[Daniel P. Berrange]

Now that properties can be explicitly registered as an enum
type, there is no need to pass the string table to the
object_get_enum method. The object property registration
already has a pointer to the string table.

In changing this method signature, the hostmem backend object
has to be converted to use the new enum property registration
code, which simplifies it somewhat.

There's been no protest after it appeared in v4, so I'm applying it for
my v3 pull. If anyone has objections, please speak up now.

Not sure if the style would be '*const' instead of '* const' everywhere,
but if checkpatch.pl didn't complain, it's not worth a respin.

Actually I think /objects is meant, so looks okay to me?

Please do check the version in my tree or in the two PULLs though, as I
edited most messages, including capitalization in subject, use of () for
functions and s/method/function/g.

Could also be written as g_free(opaque), but that's a little less
readable, so I don't see a point in changing it.

I pointed out a couple of minor issues, but they are not showstoppers,
so you can add to the series:

Then s,objects,/objects, :)

Yes, that reads okay as well (and now you see why adding a character,
whether / or ', makes a difference).

I prefer it this way. Consuming opaques directly broke a few call sites
when I refactored the CPU structs, so the savings of one line is not
really worth it IMO.
