[PATCH v4 0/3] Avoid abort on QMP attempt to add an object with duplicate id

[PATCH v4 0/3] Avoid abort on QMP attempt to add an object with duplicate id

[Eric Auger]

Attempting to add an object through QMP with an id that is
already used leads to a qemu abort. This is a regression since
d2623129a7de ("qom: Drop parameter @errp of object_property_add()
& friends").

The first patch fixes the issue and the second patch adds a test
to check the error is gracefully returned to the QMP client.

The last patch can be considered independently. It merges all the
object-add tests into a single test function and cover new failure
cases.

Best Regards

Eric

History:
- v3 -> v4:
  - addressed style comment from Markus
  - added patch 3

- v2 -> v3:
  - don't take the object reference on failure in
    object_property_try_add_child
  - add g_assert_nonnull(resp) in 2/2 while keeping
    Thomas A-b

- v1 -> v2:
  - use the try terminology.
  - turn object_property_try_add() into a non-static function
  - add the test

[PATCH v4 1/3] qom: Introduce object_property_try_add_child()

[Eric Auger]

object_property_add() does not allow object_property_try_add()
to gracefully fail as &error_abort is passed as an error handle.

However such failure can easily be triggered from the QMP shell when,
for instance, one attempts to create an object with an id that already
exists. This is achieved from the following call path:

qmp_object_add -> user_creatable_add_dict -> user_creatable_add_type ->
object_property_add_child -> object_property_add

For instance, from the qmp-shell, call twice:
object-add qom-type=memory-backend-ram id=mem1 props.size=1073741824
and QEMU aborts.

This behavior is undesired as a user/management application mistake
in reusing a property ID shouldn't result in loss of the VM and live
data within.

This patch introduces a new function, object_property_try_add_child()
which takes an error handle and turn object_property_try_add() into
a non-static one.

Now the call path becomes:

user_creatable_add_type -> object_property_try_add_child ->
object_property_try_add

and the error is returned gracefully to the QMP client.

(QEMU) object-add qom-type=memory-backend-ram id=mem2  props.size=4294967296
{"return": {}}
(QEMU) object-add qom-type=memory-backend-ram id=mem2  props.size=4294967296
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "attempt to add duplicate property
'mem2' to object (type 'container')"}}

Very nice.  I see a failure reported by Patchew, I'll look into it as
well if you don't have time.

As I reported earlier, I am no able to reproduce on my end with both

sudo time make docker-test-mingw@fedora SHOW_ENV=1 J=14 NETWORK=1
sudo time make docker-test-quick@centos7 SHOW_ENV=1 J=14 NETWORK=1

It fails on the first memory-backend-ram object-add that should be valid.

resp = qtest_qmp(qts, "{'execute': 'object-add', 'arguments':"
                    " {'qom-type': 'memory-backend-ram', 'id': 'ram1',
'props': {'size': 4294967296 } } }");

Could it be that the size is too large (4GB)?

Thanks

Eric

So "[PATCH v5 0/3] Avoid abort on QMP attempt to add an object with
duplicate id" seems to have fixed the Patchew error (I decreased the
size of the memory object downto 1MB).

Thanks

Great, I queued that one.  Thanks.
