      qapi: Add new visit_complete() function · 3b098d56
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
      function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
      sub-types to the rest of the code base.  Add a polymorphic
      visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
      and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors.  For
      maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
      constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
      and assert that the two uses match.
      
      This approach was considered superior to either passing the
      output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
      during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
      (defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
      
      Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
      conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
      cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
      
      The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
      so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
      ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
      caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.
      
      Generated code is simplified as follows for events:

      qapi: Add new visit_free() function · 2c0ef9f4
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
      is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
      interface.  Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
      functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
      for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
      be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
      
      The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use
      the new entry point, since qapi_dealloc_visitor_cleanup() was the
      only reason that qapi_dealloc_get_visitor() existed, and only
      generated and testsuite code was even using it.  With the new
      visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose
      the QapiDeallocVisitor subtype through qapi_dealloc_visitor_new(),
      and can get by with less generated code, with diffs that look like:

      qapi: Add parameter to visit_end_* · 1158bb2a
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
      remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
      visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
      same pointer to visit_end_*.  The generated code has access to the
      same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
      can pass NULL.  The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
      
      All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
      even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
      GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**.  This is done for several
      reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
      what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
      have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
      while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
      an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
      the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
      which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
      
      For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
      via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
      add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
      pointer to paired calls.

      qapi: Simplify use of range.h · 7c47959d
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Calling our function g_list_insert_sorted_merged is a misnomer,
      since we are NOT writing a glib function.  Furthermore, we are
      making every caller pass the same comparator function of
      range_merge(): any caller that would try otherwise would break
      in weird ways since our internal call to ranges_can_merge() is
      hard-coded to operate only on ranges, rather than paying
      attention to the caller's comparator.
      
      Better is to fix things so that callers don't have to care about
      our internal comparator, by picking a function name and updating
      the parameter type away from a gratuitous use of void*, to make
      it obvious that we are operating specifically on a list of ranges
      and not a generic list.  Plus, refactoring the code here will
      make it easier to plug a memory leak in the next patch.
      
      range_compare() is now internal only, and moves to the .c file.

      qapi: Simplify semantics of visit_next_list() · d9f62dde
      Eric Blake 提交于
      The semantics of the list visit are somewhat baroque, with the
      following pseudocode when FooList is used:
      
      start()
      for (prev = head; cur = next(prev); prev = &cur) {
          visit(&cur->value)
      }
      
      Note that these semantics (advance before visit) requires that
      the first call to next() return the list head, while all other
      calls return the next element of the list; that is, every visitor
      implementation is required to track extra state to decide whether
      to return the input as-is, or to advance.  It also requires an
      argument of 'GenericList **' to next(), solely because the first
      iteration might need to modify the caller's GenericList head, so
      that all other calls have to do a layer of dereferencing.
      
      Thankfully, we only have two uses of list visits in the entire
      code base: one in spapr_drc (which completely avoids
      visit_next_list(), feeding in integers from a different source
      than uint8List), and one in qapi-visit.py.  That is, all other
      list visitors are generated in qapi-visit.c, and share the same
      paradigm based on a qapi FooList type, so we can refactor how
      lists are laid out with minimal churn among clients.
      
      We can greatly simplify things by hoisting the special case
      into the start() routine, and flipping the order in the loop
      to visit before advance:
      
      start(head)
      for (tail = *head; tail; tail = next(tail)) {
          visit(&tail->value)
      }
      
      With the simpler semantics, visitors have less state to track,
      the argument to next() is reduced to 'GenericList *', and it
      also becomes obvious whether an input visitor is allocating a
      FooList during visit_start_list() (rather than the old way of
      not knowing if an allocation happened until the first
      visit_next_list()).  As a minor drawback, we now allocate in
      two functions instead of one, and have to pass the size to
      both functions (unless we were to tweak the input visitors to
      cache the size to start_list for reuse during next_list, but
      that defeats the goal of less visitor state).
      
      The signature of visit_start_list() is chosen to match
      visit_start_struct(), with the new parameters after 'name'.
      
      The spapr_drc case is a virtual visit, done by passing NULL for
      list, similarly to how NULL is passed to visit_start_struct()
      when a qapi type is not used in those visits.  It was easy to
      provide these semantics for qmp-output and dealloc visitors,
      and a bit harder for qmp-input (several prerequisite patches
      refactored things to make this patch straightforward).  But it
      turned out that the string and opts visitors munge enough other
      state during visit_next_list() to make it easier to just
      document and require a GenericList visit for now; an assertion
      will remind us to adjust things if we need the semantics in the
      future.
      
      Several pre-requisite cleanup patches made the reshuffling of
      the various visitors easier; particularly the qmp input visitor.

      qapi-visit: Add visitor.type classification · 983f52d4
      Eric Blake 提交于
      We have three classes of QAPI visitors: input, output, and dealloc.
      Currently, all implementations of these visitors have one thing in
      common based on their visitor type: the implementation used for the
      visit_type_enum() callback.  But since we plan to add more such
      common behavior, in relation to documenting and further refining
      the semantics, it makes more sense to have the visitor
      implementations advertise which class they belong to, so the common
      qapi-visit-core code can use that information in multiple places.
      
      A later patch will better document the types of visitors directly
      in visitor.h.
      
      For this patch, knowing the class of a visitor implementation lets
      us make input_type_enum() and output_type_enum() become static
      functions, by replacing the callback function Visitor.type_enum()
      with the simpler enum member Visitor.type.  Share a common
      assertion in qapi-visit-core as part of the refactoring.
      
      Move comments in opts-visitor.c to match the refactored layout.

      qapi: Adjust layout of FooList types · e65d89bf
      Eric Blake 提交于
      By sticking the next pointer first, we don't need a union with
      64-bit padding for smaller types.  On 32-bit platforms, this
      can reduce the size of uint8List from 16 bytes (or 12, depending
      on whether 64-bit ints can tolerate 4-byte alignment) down to 8.
      It has no effect on 64-bit platforms (where alignment still
      dictates a 16-byte struct); but fewer anonymous unions is still
      a win in my book.
      
      It requires visit_next_list() to gain a size parameter, to know
      what size element to allocate; comparable to the size parameter
      of visit_start_struct().
      
      I debated about going one step further, to allow for fewer casts,
      by doing:
          typedef GenericList GenericList;
          struct GenericList {
              GenericList *next;
          };
          struct FooList {
              GenericList base;
              Foo *value;
          };
      so that you convert to 'GenericList *' by '&foolist->base', and
      back by 'container_of(generic, GenericList, base)' (as opposed to
      the existing '(GenericList *)foolist' and '(FooList *)generic').
      But doing that would require hoisting the declaration of
      GenericList prior to inclusion of qapi-types.h, rather than its
      current spot in visitor.h; it also makes iteration a bit more
      verbose through 'foolist->base.next' instead of 'foolist->next'.
      
      Note that for lists of objects, the 'value' payload is still
      hidden behind a boxed pointer.  Someday, it would be nice to do:
      
      struct FooList {
          FooList *next;
          Foo value;
      };
      
      for one less level of malloc for each list element.  This patch
      is a step in that direction (now that 'next' is no longer at a
      fixed non-zero offset within the struct, we can store more than
      just a pointer's-worth of data as the value payload), but the
      actual conversion would be a task for another series, as it will
      touch a lot of code.

      The compiler is able to enforce that all clients match the changed
      interface in visitor-impl.h, even where two pointers are being
      swapped, because only one of the two pointers is const (if that
      were not the case, then C's looseness on treating 'char *' like

      qapi: Make all visitors supply uint64 callbacks · f755dea7
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Our qapi visitor contract supports multiple integer visitors,
      but left the type_uint64 visitor as optional (falling back on
      type_int64); which in turn can lead to awkward behavior with
      numbers larger than INT64_MAX (the user has to be aware of
      twos complement, and deal with negatives).
      
      This patch does not address the disparity in handling large
      values as negatives.  It merely moves the fallback from uint64
      to int64 from the visitor core to the visitors, where the issue
      can actually be fixed, by implementing the missing type_uint64()
      callbacks on top of the respective type_int64() callbacks, and
      with a FIXME comment explaining why that's wrong.
      
      With that done, we now have a type_uint64() callback in every
      driver, so we can make it mandatory from the core.  And although
      the type_int64() callback can cover the entire valid range of
      type_uint{8,16,32} on valid user input, using type_uint64() to
      avoid mixed signedness makes more sense.

      qapi: Prefer type_int64 over type_int in visitors · 4c40314a
      Eric Blake 提交于
      The qapi builtin type 'int' is basically shorthand for the type
      'int64'.  In fact, since no visitor was providing the optional
      type_int64() callback, visit_type_int64() was just always falling
      back to type_int(), cementing the equivalence between the types.
      
      However, some visitors are providing a type_uint64() callback.
      For purposes of code consistency, it is nicer if all visitors
      use the paired type_int64/type_uint64 names rather than the
      mismatched type_int/type_uint64.  So this patch just renames
      the signed int callbacks in place, dropping the type_int()
      callback as redundant, and a later patch will focus on the
      unsigned int callbacks.
      
      Add some FIXMEs to questionable reuse of errp in code touched
      by the rename, while at it (the reuse works as long as the
      callbacks don't modify value when setting an error, but it's not
      a good example to set) - a later patch will then fix those.
      
      No change in functionality here, although further cleanups are
      in the pipeline.

      Eric Blake 提交于
      The macro DO_UPCAST() is incorrectly named: it converts from a
      parent class to a derived class (which is a downcast).  Better,
      and more consistent with some of the other qapi visitors, is
      to use the container_of() macro through a to_FOO() helper.  Names
      like 'to_ov()' may be a bit short, but for a static helper it
      doesn't hurt too much, and matches existing practice in files
      like qmp-input-visitor.c.
      
      Our current definition of container_of() is weaker than
      DO_UPCAST(), in that it does not require the derived class to
      have Visitor as its first member, but this does not hurt our
      usage patterns in qapi visitors.

      qapi: String visitor, use %f representation for floats · 173bbb75
      Michael Roth 提交于
      Currently string-output-visitor formats floats as %g, which is nice in
      that trailing 0's are automatically truncated, but otherwise this causes
      some issues:
      
       - it uses 6 significant figures instead of 6 decimal places, which
         means something like 155777.5 (which even has an exact floating point
         representation) will be rounded to 155778 when converted to a string.
      
       - output will be presented in scientific notation when the normalized
         form requires a 10^x multiplier. Not a huge deal, but arguably less
         readable for command-line arguments.
      
       - due to using scientific notation for numbers requiring more than 6
         significant figures, instead of hard-defined decimal places, it
         fails a lot of the test-visitor-serialization unit tests for floats.
      
      Instead, let's just use %f, which is what the QJSON and the QMP visitors
      use.
