The visit_type_implicit_FOO() are generated on demand, right before
their first use. Used by visit_type_STRUCT_fields() when STRUCT has
base FOO, and by visit_type_UNION() when flat UNION has member a FOO.
If the schema defines FOO after its first use as struct base or flat
union member, visit_type_implicit_FOO() calls
visit_type_implicit_FOO() before its definition, which doesn't
compile.
Rearrange qapi-schema-test.json to demonstrate the bug.
Fix by generating the necessary forward declaration.
Backports commit 8c3f8e77215bfedb7854221868f655e148506936 from qemu
The struct generated for a flat union is weird: the members of its
base are at the end, except for the union tag, which is at the
beginning.
Example: qapi-schema-test.json has
{ 'struct': 'UserDefUnionBase',
'data': { 'string': 'str', 'enum1': 'EnumOne' } }
{ 'union': 'UserDefFlatUnion',
'base': 'UserDefUnionBase',
'discriminator': 'enum1',
'data': { 'value1' : 'UserDefA',
'value2' : 'UserDefB',
'value3' : 'UserDefB' } }
We generate:
struct UserDefFlatUnion
{
EnumOne enum1;
union {
void *data;
UserDefA *value1;
UserDefB *value2;
UserDefB *value3;
};
char *string;
};
Change to put all base members at the beginning, unadulterated. Not
only is this easier to understand, it also permits casting the flat
union to its base, if that should become useful.
We now generate:
struct UserDefFlatUnion
{
/* Members inherited from UserDefUnionBase: */
char *string;
EnumOne enum1;
/* Own members: */
union { /* union tag is @enum1 */
void *data;
UserDefA *value1;
UserDefB *value2;
UserDefB *value3;
};
};
Backports commit 1e6c1616a91cdcbe9a8387541f7689b8c11632aa from qemu
A flat union's tag member gets renamed to 'kind' in the generated
code. Breaks when another member named 'kind' exists.
Example, adapted from qapi-schema-test.json:
{ 'struct': 'UserDefUnionBase',
'data': { 'kind': 'str', 'enum1': 'EnumOne' } }
We generate:
struct UserDefFlatUnion
{
EnumOne kind;
union {
void *data;
UserDefA *value1;
UserDefB *value2;
UserDefB *value3;
};
char *kind;
};
Kill the silly rename.

Commit 05dfb26 added eatspace stripping to mcgen(). Move it to

instead of via mcgen().
cgen() indents blank lines. No such lines get generated right now,
but fix it anyway.
We use triple-quoted strings for program text, like this:
'''
Program text
any number of lines
'''
Keeps the program text relatively readable, but puts an extra newline
at either end. mcgen() "fixes" that by dropping the first and last
line outright. Drop only the newlines.
This unmasks a bug in qapi-commands.py: four quotes instead of three.
Fix it up.

Backports commit 2e4450ff432daef524cb3557fca68a3b7b5c7823 from qemu
Make sure that all generated C structs have at least one field; this
avoids potential issues with attempting to malloc space for
zero-length structs in C (g_malloc(sizeof struct) would return NULL).
It also avoids an incompatibility with C++ (where an empty struct is
size 1); that isn't important to us now but might be in future.
Generated empty structures look like this:
struct Abort
{
char qapi_dummy_field_for_empty_struct;
};
This silences clang warnings like:
./qapi-types.h:3752:1: warning: empty struct has size 0 in C, size 1 in C++ [-Wextern-c-compat]

Backports commit fce384b8e5193e02421f6b2c2880f3684abcbdc0 from qemu
Continuing the string of cleanups for supporting downstream names
containing '.', this patch focuses on ensuring c_type() can
handle a downstream name. This patch alone does not fix the
places where generator output should be calling this function
but was open-coding things instead, but it gets us a step closer.
In particular, the changes to c_list_type() and type_name() mean
that type_name(FOO) now handles the case when FOO contains '.',
'-', or is a ticklish identifier other than a builtin (builtins
are exempted because ['int'] must remain mapped to 'intList' and
not 'q_intList'). Meanwhile, ['unix'] now maps to 'q_unixList'
rather than 'unixList', to match the fact that 'unix' is ticklish;
however, our naming conventions state that complex types should
start with a capital, so no type name following conventions will
ever have the 'q_' prepended.
Likewise, changes to c_type() mean that c_type(FOO) properly
handles an enum or complex type FOO with '.' or '-' in the
name, or is a ticklish identifier (again, a ticklish identifier
as a type name violates conventions).
Backports commit c6405b54b7b09a876f2f2fba2aa6f8ac87189cb9 from qemu
c_type() is designed to be called on both string names and on
array designations, so 'name' is a bit misleading because it
operates on more than strings. Also, no caller ever passes
an empty string. Finally, + notation is a bit nicer to read
than '%s' % value for string concatenation.

Now that the two functions are identical, we only need one of them,
and we might as well give it a more descriptive name. Basically,
the function serves as the translation from a QAPI name into a

variable or function name.

c_fun() maps '.' to '_', c_var() doesn't. Nothing prevents '.' in
QAPI names that get passed to c_var().
Which QAPI names get passed to c_fun(), to c_var(), or to both is not
obvious. Names of command parameters and struct type members get
passed to c_var().
c_var() strips a leading '*', but this cannot happen. c_fun()
doesn't.
Fix c_var() to work exactly like c_fun().
Perhaps they should be replaced by a single mapping function.
Backports commit 47299262de424af0cb69965d082e5e70b2314183 from qemu
Our type inheritance for both 'struct' and for flat 'union' merges
key/value pairs from the base class with those from the type in
question. Although the C code currently boxes things so that there
is a distinction between which member is referred to, the QMP wire
format does not allow passing a key more than once in a single
object. Besides, if we ever change the generated C code to not be
quite so boxy, we'd want to avoid duplicate member names there,
too.
Fix a testsuite entry added in an earlier patch, as well as adding
a couple more tests to ensure we have appropriate coverage. Ensure
that collisions are detected, regardless of whether there is a
difference in opinion on whether the member name is optional.
Backports commit ff55d72eaf9628e7d58e7b067b361cdbf789c9f4 from qemu
The handling of \ inside QAPI strings was less than ideal, and
really only worked JSON's \/, \\, \", and our extension of \'
(an obvious extension, when you realize we use '' instead of ""
for strings). For other things, like '\n', it resulted in a
literal 'n' instead of a newline.
Of course, at the moment, we really have no use for escaped
characters, as QAPI has to map to C identifiers, and we currently
support ASCII only for that. But down the road, we may add
support for default values for string parameters to a command
or struct; if that happens, it would be nice to correctly support
all JSON escape sequences, such as \n or \uXXXX. This gets us
closer, by supporting Unicode escapes in the ASCII range.
Since JSON does not require \OCTAL or \xXX escapes, and our QMP
implementation does not understand them either, I intentionally
reject it here, but it would be an easy addition if we desired it.
Likewise, intentionally refusing the NUL byte means we don't have
to worry about C strings being shorter than the qapi input.

(see previous commit messages for more details why); but existing

nuke support for them, and turn it into a hard error. Update the

Referring to "type" as both a meta-type (built-in, enum, union,
alternate, or struct) and a specific type (the name that the
schema uses for declaring structs) is confusing. Do the bulk of
the conversion to "struct" in qapi schema, with a fairly
mechanical:
for f in `find -name '*.json'; do sed -i "s/'type'/'struct'/"; done
followed by manually filtering out the places where we have a
'type' embedded in 'data'. Then tweak a couple of tests whose
output changes slightly due to longer lines.
I also verified that the generated files for QMP and QGA (such
as qmp-commands.h) are the same before and after, as assurance
that I didn't leave in any accidental member name changes.

Python 2 and Python 3 have a wild history of whether strings
default to ascii or unicode, where Python 3 requires checking
isinstance(foo, basestr) to cover all strings, but where that
code is not portable to Python 2. It's simpler to just state
that we don't care about Unicode strings, and to just always
use the simpler isinstance(foo, str) everywhere.

Referring to "type" as both a meta-type (built-in, enum, union,
alternate, or struct) and a specific type (the name that the
schema uses for declaring structs) is confusing. The confusion
is only made worse by the fact that the generator mostly already
refers to struct even when dealing with expr['type']. This
commit changes the generator to consistently refer to it as
struct everywhere, plus a single back-compat tweak that allows
accepting the existing .json files as-is, so that the meat of
this change is separate from the mindless churn of that change.
Fix the testsuite fallout for error messages that change, and
in some cases, become more legible. Improve comments to better
match our intentions where a struct (rather than any complex
type) is required. Note that in some cases, an error message
now refers to 'struct' while the schema still refers to 'type';
that will be cleaned up in the later commit to the schema.

Now that we have a way to validate every type, we can also be
stricter about enforcing that callers that want to bypass
type safety in generated code. Prior to this patch, it didn't
matter what value was associated with the key 'gen', but it
looked odd that 'gen':'yes' could result in bypassing the
generated code. These changes also enforce the changes made
earlier in the series for documentation and consolidation of
using '**' as the wildcard type, as well as 'gen':false as the
canonical spelling for requesting type bypass.
Note that 'gen':false is a one-way switch away from the default;
we do not support 'gen':true (similar for 'success-response').
In practice, this doesn't matter.

...or an array of dictionaries. Although we have to cater to
existing commands, returning a non-dictionary means the command
is not extensible (no new name/value pairs can be added if more
information must be returned in parallel). By making the
whitelist explicit, any new command that falls foul of this
practice will have to be self-documenting, which will encourage
developers to either justify the action or rework the design to
use a dictionary after all.
It's a little bit sloppy that we share a single whitelist among
three clients (it's too permissive for each). If this is a
problem, a future patch could tighten things by having the
generator take the whitelist as an argument (as in
scripts/qapi-commands.py --legacy-returns=...), or by having
the generator output C code that requires explicit use of the
whitelist (as in:
then having the callers define appropriate macros). But until
we need such fine-grained separation (if ever), this patch does
the job just fine.
