[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/30] Move qapi documentation to schema (part 1/5)

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/30] Move qapi documentation to schema (part 1/5)

[Marc-André Lureau]

Hi,

The QAPI documentation is currently done in two places, the json
schema and a more human-friendly text file. The goal is to avoid
duplication and to generate friendly versions from the schema (pdf,
man etc).  Thus, all documentation should be moved to the schema.

In order to facilitate the review, the documentation move has been
splitted, and is going to sent by chunks of ~30 patches. This way it
should take about 5 series to complete (~150 patches). I suggest that
the qapi maintainers (Markus/Eric) compile the reviewed patches in a
branch and merge upstream in one go (either merging move commits or
not) when the series complete and the documentation is finally
generated to avoid an in-between state.

The wip branch with all the pending patches:
https://github.com/elmarco/qemu/commits/qapi-doc

And a sneak peek of the generated pdf documentation:
https://fedorapeople.org/~elmarco/qemu-qapi.pdf

The series is currently based on Markus qapi-next branch.

-ringbuf-read
--------------
-
-Read from a ring buffer character device.
-
-Arguments:
-
-- "device": ring buffer character device name (json-string)
-- "size": how many bytes to read at most (json-int)
-          - Number of data bytes, not number of characters in encoded data
-- "format": data format (json-string, optional)
-          - Possible values: "utf8" (default), "base64"
-          - Naturally, format "utf8" works only when the ring buffer
-            contains valid UTF-8 text.  Invalid UTF-8 sequences get
-            replaced.  Bug: replacement doesn't work.  Bug: can screw
-            up on encountering NUL characters, after the ring buffer
-            lost data, and when reading stops because the size limit
-            is reached.
-
-Example:
-
--> { "execute": "ringbuf-read",
-                "arguments": { "device": "foo",
-                               "size": 1000,
-                               "format": "utf8" } }
-<- {"return": "abcdefgh"}

-query-migrate
--------------
-
-Migration status.
-
-Return a json-object. If migration is active there will be another json-object
-with RAM migration status and if block migration is active another one with
-block migration status.
-
-The main json-object contains the following:
-
-- "status": migration status (json-string)
-     - Possible values: "setup", "active", "completed", "failed", "cancelled"
-- "total-time": total amount of ms since migration started.  If
-                migration has ended, it returns the total migration
-                time (json-int)
-- "setup-time" amount of setup time in milliseconds _before_ the
-               iterations begin but _after_ the QMP command is issued.
-               This is designed to provide an accounting of any activities
-               (such as RDMA pinning) which may be expensive, but do not
-               actually occur during the iterative migration rounds
-               themselves. (json-int)
-- "downtime": only present when migration has finished correctly
-              total amount in ms for downtime that happened (json-int)
-- "expected-downtime": only present while migration is active
-                total amount in ms for downtime that was calculated on
-                the last bitmap round (json-int)
-- "ram": only present if "status" is "active", it is a json-object with the
-  following RAM information:
-         - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
-         - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes (json-int)
-         - "total": total amount of memory in bytes (json-int)
-         - "duplicate": number of pages filled entirely with the same
-            byte (json-int)
-            These are sent over the wire much more efficiently.
-         - "skipped": number of skipped zero pages (json-int)
-         - "normal" : number of whole pages transferred.  I.e. they
-            were not sent as duplicate or xbzrle pages (json-int)
-         - "normal-bytes" : number of bytes transferred in whole
-            pages. This is just normal pages times size of one page,
-            but this way upper levels don't need to care about page
-            size (json-int)
-         - "dirty-sync-count": times that dirty ram was synchronized (json-int)
-- "disk": only present if "status" is "active" and it is a block migration,
-  it is a json-object with the following disk information:
-         - "transferred": amount transferred in bytes (json-int)
-         - "remaining": amount remaining to transfer in bytes json-int)
-         - "total": total disk size in bytes (json-int)
-- "xbzrle-cache": only present if XBZRLE is active.
-  It is a json-object with the following XBZRLE information:
-         - "cache-size": XBZRLE cache size in bytes
-         - "bytes": number of bytes transferred for XBZRLE compressed pages
-         - "pages": number of XBZRLE compressed pages
-         - "cache-miss": number of XBRZRLE page cache misses
-         - "cache-miss-rate": rate of XBRZRLE page cache misses
-         - "overflow": number of times XBZRLE overflows.  This means
-           that the XBZRLE encoding was bigger than just sent the
-           whole page, and then we sent the whole page instead (as as
-           normal page).
-
-Examples:
-
-1. Before the first migration
-
--> { "execute": "query-migrate" }
-<- { "return": {} }

Ah, now I understand why you asked whether to post everything!  The
"move FOO doc to schema" patches make no sense until the very end of the
full branch, when you actually generate documentation from the schema.

Perhaps you could structure like this:

1. Fix existing issues in QAPI schema comments

2. Generate documentation from it (not a replacement for
   qmp-commands.txt, yet)

3. Merge qmp-commands.txt into QAPI schema comments, step by step

   (a) If you only update the QAPI schema comments, qmp-commands.txt
   stays intact throughout this work.

   (b) If you delete qmp-commands.txt section as you cover them in the
   QAPI schema, command documentation regresses temporarily.  Tolerable,
   but needs to be explained in commit messages.  Your choice.

4. Generated documentation now contains everything qmp-commands.txt
   contains; delete qmp-commands.txt

Getting to this structure with option (3b) could be as simple as
reordering your branch.

3(a) makes it hard to check that everything has been moved properly, while removing 3(b) makes it clear what is removed and adjusted in the corresponding schema doc, and by the end of 3(b) it's clear that nothing has been left behind.

Generating the documentation before the end of 3(b) will also lead to temporarily incomplete generated doc, and will conflict with existing qmp-commands.txt.

That's why I think the best solution is to go through 3(b) now, collect the move in a branch and push it in one go when qmp-commands.txt is empty and the doc is generated.

We're trimming off more than we move; but the trimmed stuff is duplicate
once it is all in one file in one location.  I'm liking the overall
theme of the consolidation.  This series will probably conflict with
other pending changes in the tree, so we should probably get it in
sooner rather than later.

For the next few patches, I'll probably just do a bulk R-b unless
specific issues pop out while I read through them.

You are doing more than just moving documentation; you are also
normalizing how the existing documentation is presented. Might be worth
mentioning that in various commit messages along the series, or to
rebase things to do the cleanups (uncontroversially safe to do now)
separately from the doc motion (motion is easier to review when there
are no other changes thrown in the mix, and we already know that we are
at risk of merge conflicts causing either you or other developers some
rebase churn, where we have to be careful we don't lose contents).

The example lacks 'cpu-throttle-increment', 'tls-creds', and
'tls-hostname'; do we want to take this opportunity to touch it up?

Indeed; proof that the duplication hasn't always been faithful, and that

I suggest to put a [...] in the returned example, as this example could grow again, and there isn't much to learn from that query.

Yes, the more we wait to review the series, the more conflicts we will get. There is still over 100 patches to go, I'll send the next 30.

We suggested restructuring the series, and you liked the idea with the
alternative step (3b), not (3a).  Would it make sense to repost the
beginning of the multi-part monster in that form before moving on to the
next part?

 3. Merge qmp-commands.txt into QAPI schema comments, step by step

   (b) If you delete qmp-commands.txt section as you cover them in the
   QAPI schema, command documentation regresses temporarily.  Tolerable,
   but needs to be explained in commit messages.  Your choice.

Isn't that what this series is doing? it moves the remaining doc from qmp-commands.txt to the schema.

Misunderstanding?  Step (3b) is one step of a reordered series.  Let me
repeat the order I proposed:

1. Fix existing issues in QAPI schema comments

2. Generate documentation from it (not a replacement for
   qmp-commands.txt, yet)

3. Merge qmp-commands.txt into QAPI schema comments, step by step

   (a) If you only update the QAPI schema comments, qmp-commands.txt
   stays intact throughout this work.

   (b) If you delete qmp-commands.txt section as you cover them in the
   QAPI schema, command documentation regresses temporarily.  Tolerable,
   but needs to be explained in commit messages.  Your choice.

4. Generated documentation now contains everything qmp-commands.txt
   contains; delete qmp-commands.txt

This way, the first part contains everything that's really interesting:
step 1, 2 and some of 3a or 3b, depending on which alternative you pick.
The remaining parts are just more of 3a or 3b, plus the trivial step 4
in the last one.

I proposed this to get the interesting review of step 2 out of the way
early, and before we tire ourselves out on the not-so-interesting but
necessary review of step 3.

It would have been easier to keep the discussion on the original thread. I disagreed with this plan:

 Generating the documentation before the end of 3(b) will also lead to temporarily incomplete generated doc, and will conflict with existing qmp-commands.txt.
 That's why I think the best solution is to go through 3(b) now, collect the move in a branch and push it in one go when qmp-commands.txt is empty and the doc is generated.

Having incomplete new documentation (getting less incomplete in each
commit) conflict with incomplete old documentation (getting more
incomplete) is no worse than having old documentation getting more
incomplete.  In both cases, we go through an intermediate state with
flawed documentation.

>  That's why I think the best solution is to go through 3(b) now, collect the move in a branch and push it in one go when qmp-commands.txt is empty and the doc is generated.

If you prefer to do it this way, I suggest to post everything at once,
because I won't bother reviewing any of step 3 before step 2 for the
reasons I explained above.  I don't want to see review of the step 2
invalidate all our review work on step 3.

Not if we merge the move in one go, as I propose.

Don't you think it's cleaner if we first move the documentation in one place before we generate yet another incomplete doc?

I fail to see how generating the doc could invalidate moving the documentation in the schema.

Indeed, we may want to tweak the documentation style for some reason, but that's irrelevant for now, all we should focus on is having the doc in one place before doing further work with it.

Incomplete generated doc is fine, if the commit message calls it out
that upcoming patches will fix the gaps (after all, that's what 3(b)
says to do).  And I tend to agree with Markus that reviewing the
generator first, rather than after we've burned ourself out looking over
lots of individual commands, will give us a chance to make sure the
generator is sane (and may even have some minor impacts to HOW we move
documentation over, if we end up tweaking the .json files to make the
generator easier to manage).

>  That's why I think the best solution is to go through 3(b) now, collect the move in a branch and push it in one go when qmp-commands.txt is empty and the doc is generated.

As it is, I already made comments about the first batch where you were
mixing in fixes (step 1) with doc motion, but failed to mention it in
the commit message.  And where Markus has already argued that making
those fixes on their own as a prerequisite is a bit cleaner than forcing
the review of step 3 to be more complex.

At this time, I'm 100% focused on ease of review and saving your and
your reviewers' time.  Once we got review under control, I'm happy to
talk about whether another order or some squashing makes more sense for
the permanent Git record.

Arguing further about the perfect order feels like a waste of time.

You're free to post this in the order you feel is right.  If it differs
from the order that I feel is right for my review, then please post the
whole thing, so I can review it effectively.

Since only you and Eric are actually reviewing this, and you both prefer to review the parser/generator first, I sent it yesterday: http://patchew.org/QEMU/20160922155808.8504-1-marcandre.lureau%40redhat.com/
