    qapi: Document that input visitor semantics are prone to leaks · 2f52e205
    Eric Blake 提交于
    Most functions that can return a pointer or set an Error ** value
    are decent enough to guarantee a NULL return when reporting an error.
    Not so with our generated qapi visitor functions.  If the caller
    is not careful to clean up partially-allocated objects on error,
    then the caller suffers a memory leak.
    
    Properly fixing it is probably complex enough to save for a later
    day, so merely document it for now.
