There is a field with vmstate_ghes_state as vmsd in vmstate_ghes_state,
which will lead to infinite recursion in dump_vmstate_vmsd.
Fixes: a08a64627b ("ACPI: Record the Generic Error Status Block address")

not sure its' ok handle it this way,
see how it is done with another structure:
static const VMStateDescription vmstate_ged_state = {
.name = "acpi-ged-state",
.version_id = 1,
.minimum_version_id = 1,
.fields = (VMStateField[]) {
VMSTATE_UINT32(sel, GEDState),
VMSTATE_END_OF_LIST()
}
};
...
VMSTATE_STRUCT(ged_state, AcpiGedState, 1, vmstate_ged_state, GEDState),
i.e. it looks like we are missing structure definition for AcpiGhesState
CCing David,

Yeh that's confusing :-)
Given a:
VMSTATE_STRUCT(a, B, 1, vmstate_c, C)
We're saying there's a field 'a' in type B, and field 'a'
should be of type C and be serialised using vmstate_c.
That also means that in any vmstate_c, we're expecting it
to be passed a type C generally.
Having said that; you don't need a struct - you can get away
with that VMSTATE_UINT64, there's two problems:
a) That assumes that your ghes always stays that simple.
b) If you wanted to store a Ghes from a number of different
parent structures then you're stuck because your vmstate_ghes_state
is bound to being a strict field of AcpiGedState.
So yes, it's neatest to do it using a VMSD for AcpiGhesState
And congratulations on finding a loop; I don't think we've ever had one
before :-)

can we make compilation fail in case VMSTATE_STRUCT is used but
is not actually provided like it was in this case?

Do you mean that we need another VMStateDescription to describe
AcpiGhesState instead of using VMSTATE_UINT64 directly? Maybe like this:

There's some type checking by the vmstate_offset_value macro; which I
think would have verified that the 'ghes_state' field in AcpiGedState
really is of type AcpiGhesState; but what we don't have is a type
associated with a given VMStateDescription to know what type of state
it's supposed to be called on.

Is someone taking a fix for this in 5.2 - it's breaking vmstate
comparison.
