[PATCH v2 00/15] qdev: Add JSON -device

[PATCH v2 00/15] qdev: Add JSON -device

[Kevin Wolf]

It's still a long way until we'll have QAPIfied devices, but there are
some improvements that we can already make now to make the future switch
easier.

One important part of this is having code paths without QemuOpts, which
we want to get rid of and replace with the keyval parser in the long
run. This series adds support for JSON syntax to -device, which bypasses
QemuOpts.

While we're not using QAPI yet, devices are based on QOM, so we already
do have type checks and an implied schema. JSON syntax supported now can
be supported by QAPI later and regarding command line compatibility,
actually switching to it becomes an implementation detail this way (of
course, it will still add valuable user-visible features like
introspection and documentation).

Apart from making things more future proof, this also immediately adds
a way to do non-scalar properties on the command line. nvme could have
used list support recently, and the lack of it in -device led to some
rather unnatural solution in the first version (doing the relationship
between a device and objects backwards) and loss of features in the
following. With this series, using a list as a device property should be
possible without any weird tricks.

Unfortunately, even QMP device_add goes through QemuOpts before this
series, which destroys any type safety QOM provides and also can't
support non-scalar properties. This is a bug, but it turns out that
libvirt actually relies on it and passes only strings for everything.
So this series still leaves device_add alone until libvirt is fixed.

v2:
- Drop type safe QMP device_add because libvirt gets it wrong, too
- More network patches to eliminate dependencies on the legacy QemuOpts
  data structures which would not contain all devices any more after
  this series. Fix some bugs there as a side effect.
- Remove an unnecessary use of ERRP_GUARD()
- Replaced error handling patch for qdev_set_id() with Damien's
- Drop the deprecation patch until libvirt uses the new JSON syntax

[PATCH v2 01/15] net: Introduce NetClientInfo.check_peer_type()

[Kevin Wolf]

Some network backends (vhost-user and vhost-vdpa) work only with
specific devices. At startup, they second guess what the command line
option handling will do and error out if they think a non-virtio device
will attach to them.

This second guessing is not only ugly, it can lead to wrong error
messages ('-device floppy,netdev=foo' should complain about an unknown
property, not about the wrong kind of network device being attached) and
completely ignores hotplugging.

Add a callback where backends can check compatibility with a device when
it actually tries to attach, even on hotplug.

[PATCH v2 02/15] net/vhost-user: Fix device compatibility check

[Kevin Wolf]

vhost-user works only with specific devices. At startup, it second
guesses what the command line option handling will do and error out if
it thinks a non-virtio device will attach to them.

This second guessing is not only ugly, it can lead to wrong error
messages ('-device floppy,netdev=foo' should complain about an unknown
property, not about the wrong kind of network device being attached) and
completely ignores hotplugging.

Drop the old checks and implement .check_peer_type() instead to fix
this. As a nice side effect, it also removes one more dependency on the
legacy QemuOpts infrastructure and even reduces the code size.

[PATCH v2 07/15] qdev: Avoid using string visitor for properties

[Kevin Wolf]

The only thing the string visitor adds compared to a keyval visitor is
list support. git grep for 'visit_start_list' and 'visit.*List' shows
that devices don't make use of this.

In a world with a QAPIfied command line interface, the keyval visitor is
used to parse the command line. In order to make sure that no devices
start using this feature that would make backwards compatibility harder,
just switch away from object_property_parse(), which internally uses the
string visitor, to a keyval visitor and object_property_set().

DeviceState.id is a pointer to a string that is stored in the QemuOpts

devices without going through QemuOpts in the future, so make this a

[PATCH v2 09/15] softmmu/qdev-monitor: add error handling in qdev_set_id

[Kevin Wolf]

From: Damien Hedde <damien.hedde@greensocs.com>

qdev_set_id() is mostly used when the user adds a device (using
-device cli option or device_add qmp command). This commit adds
an error parameter to handle the case where the given id is
already taken.

Also document the function and add a return value in order to
be able to capture success/failure: the function now returns the
id in case of success, or NULL in case of failure.

The commit modifies the 2 calling places (qdev-monitor and
xen-legacy-backend) to add the error object parameter.

Note that the id is, right now, guaranteed to be unique because
all ids came from the "device" QemuOptsList where the id is used
as key. This addition is a preparation for a future commit which
will relax the uniqueness.

Since we strdup the id just before calling qdev_set_id.
Maybe we should do the the strdup in qdev_set_id (and free things on 
error there too). It seems simplier than freeing things on the callee 
side just in case of an error.

Indeed.  If we expected qdev_set_id() to be passed something that it
can later free, we would have used 'char *'; but because we used
'const char *' for that parameter, it really does make more sense for
the callers to pass in any string and for qdev_set_id() to do the
necessary strdup()ing, as well as clean up on error.

Since this seems to be the only thing in the series that needs to be
addressed, I'll do the minimal fix while applying (adding g_free() to
the error path in qemu_opts_id()) and then we can clean up on top.

[PATCH v2 11/15] qdev: Add Error parameter to hide_device() callbacks

[Kevin Wolf]

hide_device() is used for virtio-net failover, where the standby virtio
device delays creation of the primary device. It only makes sense to
have a single primary device for each standby device. Adding a second
one should result in an error instead of hiding it and never using it
afterwards.

Prepare for this by adding an Error parameter to the hide_device()
callback where virtio-net is informed about adding a primary device.

[PATCH v2 12/15] virtio-net: Store failover primary opts pointer locally

[Kevin Wolf]

Instead of accessing the global QemuOptsList, which really belong to the
command line parser and shouldn't be accessed from devices, store a
pointer to the QemuOpts in a new VirtIONet field.

This is not the final state, but just an intermediate step to get rid of
QemuOpts in devices. It will later be replaced with an options QDict.

Before this patch, two "primary" devices could be hidden for the same
standby device, but only one of them would actually be enabled and the
other one would be kept hidden forever, so this doesn't make sense.
After this patch, configuring a second primary device is an error.

[PATCH v2 13/15] virtio-net: Avoid QemuOpts in failover_find_primary_device()

[Kevin Wolf]

Don't go through the global QemuOptsList, it is state of the legacy
command line parser and we will create devices that are not contained
in it. It is also just the command line configuration and not
necessarily the current runtime state.

Instead, look at the qdev device tree which has the current state of all
existing devices.

[PATCH v2 14/15] qdev: Base object creation on QDict rather than QemuOpts

[Kevin Wolf]

QDicts are both what QMP natively uses and what the keyval parser
produces. Going through QemuOpts isn't useful for either one, so switch
the main device creation function to QDicts. By sharing more code with
the -object/object-add code path, we can even reduce the code size a
bit.

This commit doesn't remove the detour through QemuOpts from any code
path yet, but it allows the following commits to do so.

Thank you to have added the errp pointer in the hide_device helpers, it helps in my series.

[PATCH v2 15/15] vl: Enable JSON syntax for -device

[Kevin Wolf]

Like we already do for -object, introduce support for JSON syntax in
-device, which can be kept stable in the long term and guarantees that a
single code path with identical behaviour is used for both QMP and the
command line. Compared to the QemuOpts based code, the parser contains
less surprises and has support for non-scalar options (lists and
structs). Switching management tools to JSON means that we can more
easily change the "human" CLI syntax from QemuOpts to the keyval parser
later.

In the QAPI schema, a feature flag is added to the device-add command to
allow management tools to detect support for this.

I've tested hotplug and standard -device with many (not all) devices
libvirt uses and seems that both '-device JSON' and monitor work
properly.

I'll enable '-device JSON' in libvirt once this hits upstream.

I've actually applied this patch too to make sure that libvirt is
working properly in both modes. It works now well with this too.

I'm not sure about the compatibility promise here, but libvirt is now
prepared even for teh strict version of 'device_add'. Libvirt's
requirements state that new libvirt needs to be used with new qemu and
thus from our view it's okay to do it even now.
