qapi: Drop support for inline nested types A future patch will be using a 'name':{dictionary} entry in the QAPI schema to specify a default value for an optional argument (see previous commit messages for more details why); but existing use of inline nested structs conflicts with that goal. Now that all commands have been changed to avoid inline nested structs, nuke support for them, and turn it into a hard error. Update the testsuite to reflect tighter parsing rules.

qapi: Add some type check tests Demonstrate that the qapi generator silently parses confusing types, which may cause other errors later on. Later patches will update the expected results as the generator is made stricter. Most of the new tests focus on blatant errors. But returns-whitelist is a case where we have historically allowed returning something other than a JSON object from particular commands; we have to keep that behavior to avoid breaking clients, but it would be nicer to avoid adding such commands in the future, because any return that is not an (array of) object cannot be easily extended if future qemu wants to return additional information. The QMP protocol already documents that clients should ignore unknown dictionary keys, but does not require clients to have to handle more than one type of JSON object.

qapi: add a dictionary form for TYPE Wherever a struct/union/alternate/command/event member with NAME: TYPE form is accepted, desugar it to a NAME: { 'type': TYPE } form. This will allow to add new member details, such as 'if' in the following patch to introduce conditionals, or 'default' for default values etc. Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20181213123724.4866-13-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> 2018-12-13 15:37:14 +03:00			`'data': { 'a' : { 'type': {} }, 'b' : 'str' } }`
