Rather than storing a base class as a pointer to a box, just
store the fields of that base class in the same order, so that
a child struct can be directly cast to its parent. This gives
less malloc overhead, less pointer dereferencing, and even less
generated code. Compare to the earlier commit 1e6c1616a "qapi:
Generate a nicer struct for flat unions" (although that patch
had fewer places to change, as less of qemu was directly using
qapi structs for flat unions). It also allows us to turn on
automatic type-safe wrappers for upcasting to the base class
of a struct.
Changes to the generated code look like this in qapi-types.h:
| struct SpiceChannel {
|- SpiceBasicInfo *base;
|+ /* Members inherited from SpiceBasicInfo: */
|+ char *host;
|+ char *port;
|+ NetworkAddressFamily family;
|+ /* Own members: */
| int64_t connection_id;
as well as additional upcast functions like qapi_SpiceChannel_base().
Meanwhile, changes to qapi-visit.c look like:
| static void visit_type_SpiceChannel_fields(Visitor *v, SpiceChannel **obj, Error **errp)
| {
| Error *err = NULL;
|
|- visit_type_implicit_SpiceBasicInfo(v, &(*obj)->base, &err);
|+ visit_type_SpiceBasicInfo_fields(v, (SpiceBasicInfo **)obj, &err);
| if (err) {
(the cast is necessary, since our upcast wrappers only deal with a
single pointer, not pointer-to-pointer); plus the wholesale
elimination of some now-unused visit_type_implicit_FOO() functions.
Without boxing, the corner case of one empty struct having
another empty struct as its base type now requires inserting a
dummy member (previously, the 'Base *base' member sufficed).
And now that we no longer consume a 'base' member in the generated
C struct, we can delete the former negative struct-base-clash-base
test.

c_name() produces names starting with 'q_' when protecting a
dictionary member name that would fail to directly compile, but
in doing so can cause clashes with any member name already
beginning with 'q-' or 'q_'. Likewise, we create a C name 'has_'
for any optional member that can clash with any member name
beginning with 'has-' or 'has_'.
Technically, rather than blindly reserving the namespace,
we could try to complain about user names only when an actual
collision occurs, or even teach c_name() how to munge names
to avoid collisions. But it is not trivial, especially when
collisions can occur across multiple types (such as via
inheritance or flat unions). Besides, no existing .json
files are trying to use these names. So it's easier to just
outright forbid the potential for collision. We can always
relax things in the future if a real need arises for QMP to
express member names that have been forbidden here.
'has_' only has to be reserved for struct/union member names,
while 'q_' is reserved everywhere (matching the fact that
only members can be optional, while we use c_name() for munging
both members and entities). Note that we could relax 'q_'
restrictions on entities independently from member names; for
example, c_name('qmp_' + 'unix') would result in a different
function name than our current 'qmp_' + c_name('unix').

Add some testsuite coverage to ensure future patches are on
the right track:
Our current C representation of qapi arrays is done by appending
'List' to the element name; but we are not preventing the
creation of an object type with the same name. Add
reserved-type-list.json to test this. Then rename
enum-union-clash.json to reserved-type-kind.json to cover the
reservation that we DO detect, and shorten it to match the fact
that the name is reserved even if there is no clash.
We are failing to detect a collision between a dictionary member
and the implicit 'has_*' flag for another optional member. The
easiest fix would be for a future patch to reserve the entire
"has[-_]" namespace for member names (the collision is also
possible for branch names within flat unions, but only as long as
branch names can collide with (non-variant) members; however,
since future patches are about to remove that, it is not worth
testing here). Add reserved-member-has.json to test this.
A similar collision exists between a dictionary member where
c_name() munges what might otherwise be a reserved name to start
with 'q_', and another member explicitly starts with "q[-_]".
Again, the easiest solution for a future patch will be reserving
the entire namespace, but here for commands as well as members.
Add reserved-member-q.json and reserved-command-q.json to test
this; separate tests since arguably our munging of command 'unix'
to 'qmp_q_unix()' could be done without a q_, which is different
than the munging of a member 'unix' to 'foo.q_unix'.
Finally, our testsuite does not have any compilation coverage
of struct inheritance with empty qapi structs. Update
qapi-schema-test.json to test this.
Note that there is currently no technical reason to forbid type
name patterns from member names, or member name patterns from
types, since the two are not in the same namespace in C and
won't collide; but it's not worth adding positive tests of these
corner cases at this time, especially while there is other churn
pending in patches that rearrange which collisions actually
happen.

Commit ac88219a had several TODO markers about whether we needed
to automatically create the corresponding array type alongside
any other type. It turns out that most of the time, we don't!
There are a few exceptions: 1) We have a few situations where we
use an array type in internal code but do not expose that type
through QMP; fix it by declaring a dummy type that forces the
generator to see that we want to use the array type.
2) The builtin arrays (such as intList for QAPI ['int']) must
always be generated, because of the way our QAPI_TYPES_BUILTIN
compile guard works: we have situations (at the very least
tests/test-qmp-output-visitor.c) that include both top-level
"qapi-types.h" (via "error.h") and a secondary
"test-qapi-types.h". If we were to only emit the builtin types
when used locally, then the first .h file would not include all
types, but the second .h does not declare anything at all because
the first .h set QAPI_TYPES_BUILTIN, and we would end up with
compilation error due to things like unknown type 'int8List'.
Actually, we may need to revisit how we do type guards, and
change from a single QAPI_TYPES_BUILTIN over to a different
usage pattern that does one #ifdef per qapi type - right now,
the only types that are declared multiple times between two qapi
.json files for inclusion by a single .c file happen to be the
builtin arrays. But now that we have QAPI 'include' statements,
it is logical to assume that we will soon reach a point where
we want to reuse non-builtin types (yes, I'm thinking about what
it will take to add introspection to QGA, where we will want to
reuse the SchemaInfo type and friends). One #ifdef per type
will help ensure that generating the same qapi type into more
than one qapi-types.h won't cause collisions when both are
included in the same .c file; but we also have to solve how to
avoid creating duplicate qapi-types.c entry points. So that
is a problem left for another day.
Generated code for qapi-types and qapi-visit is drastically
reduced; less than a third of the arrays that were blindly
created were actually needed (a quick grep shows we dropped
from 219 to 69 *List types), and the .o files lost more than
30% of their bulk. [For best results, diff the generated
files with 'git diff --patience --no-index pre post'.]
Interestingly, the introspection output is unchanged - this is
because we already cull all types that are not indirectly
reachable from a command or event, so introspection was already
using only a subset of array types. The subset of types
introspected is now a much larger percentage of the overall set
of array types emitted in qapi-types.h (since the larger set
shrunk), but still not 100% (evidence that the array types
emitted for our new Dummy structs, and the new struct itself,
don't affect QMP).

Add some testsuite exposure for use of a 'number' as part of
an alternate. The current state of the tree has a few bugs
exposed by this: our input parser depends on the ordering of
how the qapi schema declared the alternate, and the parser
does not accept integers for a 'number' in an alternate even
though it does for numbers outside of an alternate.
Mixing 'int' and 'number' in the same alternate is unusual,
since both are supplied by json-numbers, but there does not
seem to be a technical reason to forbid it given that our
json lexer distinguishes between json-numbers that can be
represented as an int vs. those that cannot.

[Eric's follow-up fixes squashed in]
Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
The documentation claims that alternates are useful for
allowing two or more types, although nothing enforces this.
Meanwhile, it is silent on whether empty unions are allowed.
In practice, the generated code will compile, in part because
we have a 'void *data' branch; but attempting to visit such a
type will cause an abort(). While there's no technical reason
that a degenerate union could not be made to work, it's harder
to justify the time spent in chasing known (the current
abort() during visit) and unknown corner cases, than it would
be to just outlaw them. A future patch will probably take the
approach of forbidding them; in the meantime, we can at least
add testsuite coverage to make it obvious where things stand.
In addition to adding tests to expose the problems, we also
need to adjust existing tests that are meant to test something
else, but which could fail for the wrong reason if we reject
degenerate alternates/unions.
Note that empty structs are explicitly supported (for example,
right now they are the only way to specify that one branch of a
flat union adds no additional members), and empty enums are
covered by the testsuite as working (even if they do not seem
to have much use).

The previous commit added two tests that triggered an assertion
failure. It's fairly straightforward to avoid the failure by
just outright forbidding the collision between a union's tag
values and its discriminator name (including the implicit name
'kind' supplied for simple unions [*]). Ultimately, we'd like
to move the collision detection into QAPISchema*.check(), but
for now it is easier just to enhance the existing checks.
[*] Of course, down the road, we have plans to rename the simple
union tag name to 'type' to match the QMP wire name, but the
idea of the collision will still be present even then.
Technically, we could avoid the collision by naming the C union
members representing each enum value as '_case_value' rather
than 'value'; but until we have an actual qapi client (and not
just our testsuite) that has a legitimate reason to match a
case label to the name of a QMP key and needs the name munging
to satisfy the compiler, it's easier to just reject the qapi
as invalid.

[Polished a few comments]
Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
Expose some weaknesses in the generator: we don't always forbid
the generation of structs that contain multiple members that map
to the same C or QMP name. This has already been marked FIXME in
qapi.py in commit d90675f, but having more tests will make sure
future patches produce desired behavior; and updating existing
patches to better document things doesn't hurt, either. Some of
these collisions are already caught in the old-style parser
checks, but ultimately we want all collisions to be caught in the
new-style QAPISchema*.check() methods.
This patch focuses on C struct members, and does not consider
collisions between commands and events (affecting C function
names), or even collisions between generated C type names with
user type names (for things like automatic FOOList struct
representing array types or FOOKind for an implicit enum).
There are two types of struct collisions we want to catch:
1) Collision between two keys in a JSON object. qapi.py prevents
that within a single struct (see test duplicate-key), but it is
possible to have collisions between a type's members and its
base type's members (existing tests struct-base-clash,
struct-base-clash-deep), and its flat union variant members
(renamed test flat-union-clash-member).
2) Collision between two members of the C struct that is generated
for a given QAPI type:
a) Multiple QAPI names map to the same C name (new test
args-name-clash)
b) A QAPI name maps to a C name that is used for another purpose
(new tests flat-union-clash-branch, struct-base-clash-base,
union-clash-data). We already fixed some such cases in commit
0f61af3e and 1e6c1616, but more remain.
c) Two C names generated for other purposes clash
(updated test alternate-clash, new test union-clash-branches,
union-clash-type, flat-union-clash-type)
Ultimately, if we need to have a flat union where a tag value
clashes with a base member name, we could change the generator to
name the union (using 'foo.u.value' rather than 'foo.value') or
otherwise munge the C name corresponding to tag values. But
unless such a need arises, it will probably be easier to just
forbid these collisions.
Some of these negative tests will be deleted later, and positive
tests added to qapi-schema-test.json in their place, when the
generator code is reworked to avoid particular code generation
collisions in class 2).

qapi/introspect.json defines the introspection schema. It's designed
for QMP introspection, but should do for similar uses, such as QGA.
The introspection schema does not reflect all the rules and
restrictions that apply to QAPI schemata. A valid QAPI schema has an
introspection value conforming to the introspection schema, but the
converse is not true.
Introspection lowers away a number of schema details, and makes
implicit things explicit:
* The built-in types are declared with their JSON type.
All integer types are mapped to 'int', because how many bits we use
internally is an implementation detail. It could be pressed into
external interface service as very approximate range information,
but that's a bad idea. If we need range information, we better do
it properly.
* Implicit type definitions are made explicit, and given
auto-generated names:
- Array types, named by appending "List" to the name of their
element type, like in generated C.
- The enumeration types implicitly defined by simple union types,
named by appending "Kind" to the name of their simple union type,
like in generated C.
- Types that don't occur in generated C. Their names start with ':'
so they don't clash with the user's names.
* All type references are by name.
* The struct and union types are generalized into an object type.
* Base types are flattened.
* Commands take a single argument and return a single result.
Dictionary argument or list result is an implicit type definition.
The empty object type is used when a command takes no arguments or
produces no results.
The argument is always of object type, but the introspection schema
doesn't reflect that.
The 'gen': false directive is omitted as implementation detail.
The 'success-response' directive is omitted as well for now, even
though it's not an implementation detail, because it's not used by
QMP.
* Events carry a single data value.
Implicit type definition and empty object type use, just like for
commands.
The value is of object type, but the introspection schema doesn't
reflect that.
* Types not used by commands or events are omitted.
Indirect use counts as use.
* Optional members have a default, which can only be null right now
Instead of a mandatory "optional" flag, we have an optional default.
No default means mandatory, default null means optional without
default value. Non-null is available for optional with default
(possible future extension).
* Clients should *not* look up types by name, because type names are
not ABI. Look up the command or event you're interested in, then
follow the references.
TODO Should we hide the type names to eliminate the temptation?
New generator scripts/qapi-introspect.py computes an introspection
value for its input, and generates a C variable holding it.
It can generate awfully long lines. Marked TODO.
A new test-qmp-input-visitor test case feeds its result for both
tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json and qapi-schema.json to a
QmpInputVisitor to verify it actually conforms to the schema.
New QMP command query-qmp-schema takes its return value from that
variable. Its reply is some 85KiBytes for me right now.
If this turns out to be too much, we have a couple of options:
* We can use shorter names in the JSON. Not the QMP style.
* Optionally return the sub-schema for commands and events given as
arguments.
Right now qmp_query_schema() sends the string literal computed by
qmp-introspect.py. To compute sub-schema at run time, we'd have to
duplicate parts of qapi-introspect.py in C. Unattractive.
* Let clients cache the output of query-qmp-schema.
It changes only on QEMU upgrades, i.e. rarely. Provide a command
query-qmp-schema-hash. Clients can have a cache indexed by hash,
and re-query the schema only when they don't have it cached. Even
simpler: put the hash in the QMP greeting.

The QAPI code generators work with a syntax tree (nested dictionaries)

They have clearly outgrown these simple data structures. There's lots

The camel_to_upper() method applies some heuristics to turn
a mixed case type name into an all-uppercase name. This is
used for example, to generate enum constant name prefixes.
The heuristics don't also generate a satisfactory name
though. eg
{ 'enum': 'QCryptoTLSCredsEndpoint',
'data': ['client', 'server']}
Results in Q_CRYPTOTLS_CREDS_ENDPOINT_CLIENT. This has
an undesirable _ after the initial Q and is missing an
_ between the CRYPTO & TLS strings.
Rather than try to add more and more heuristics to try
to cope with this, simply allow the QAPI schema to
specify the desired enum constant prefix explicitly.
eg
{ 'enum': 'QCryptoTLSCredsEndpoint',
'prefix': 'QCRYPTO_TLS_CREDS_ENDPOINT',
'data': ['client', 'server']}
Now gives the QCRYPTO_TLS_CREDS_ENDPOINT_CLIENT name.

check_type() first checks and peels off the array type, then checks
the element type. For two out of four error messages, it takes pains
to report errors for "array of T" instead of just T. Odd. Let's
examine the errors.
* Unknown element type, e.g.
tests/qapi-schema/args-array-unknown.json:
Member 'array' of 'data' for command 'oops' uses unknown type
'array of NoSuchType'
To make sense of this, you need to know that 'array of NoSuchType'
refers to '[NoSuchType]'. Easy enough. However, simply reporting
Member 'array' of 'data' for command 'oops' uses unknown type
'NoSuchType'
is at least as easy to understand.
* Element type's meta-type is inadmissible, e.g.
tests/qapi-schema/returns-whitelist.json:
'returns' for command 'no-way-this-will-get-whitelisted' cannot
use built-in type 'array of int'
'array of int' is technically not a built-in type, but that's
pedantry. However, simply reporting
'returns' for command 'no-way-this-will-get-whitelisted' cannot
use built-in type 'int'
avoids the issue, and is at least as easy to understand.
* The remaining two errors are unreachable, because the array checking
ensures that value is a string.
Thus, reporting some errors for "array of T" instead of just T works,
but doesn't really improve things. Drop it.

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

A future patch will be using a 'name':{dictionary} entry in the
QAPI schema to specify a default value for an optional argument;
but existing use of inline nested structs conflicts with that goal.
More precisely, a definition in the QAPI schema associates a name
with a set of properties:
Example 1: { 'struct': 'Foo', 'data': { MEMBERS... } }
associates the global name 'Foo' with properties (meta-type struct)
and MEMBERS...
Example 2: 'mumble': TYPE
within MEMBERS... above associates 'mumble' with properties (type
TYPE) and (optional false) within type Foo
The syntax of example 1 is extensible; if we need another property,
we add another name/value pair to the dictionary (such as
'base':TYPE). The syntax of example 2 is not extensible, because
the right hand side can only be a type.
We have used name encoding to add a property: "'*mumble': 'int'"
associates 'mumble' with (type int) and (optional true). Nice,
but doesn't scale. So the solution is to change our existing uses
to be syntactic sugar to an extensible form:
NAME: TYPE --> NAME: { 'type': TYPE, 'optional': false }
*ONAME: TYPE --> ONAME: { 'type': TYPE, 'optional': true }
This patch fixes the testsuite to avoid inline nested types, by
breaking the nesting into explicit types; it means that the type
is now boxed instead of unboxed in C code, but makes no difference
on the wire (and if desired, a later patch could change the
generator to not do so much boxing in C). When touching code to
add new allocations, also convert existing allocations to
consistently prefer typesafe g_new0 over g_malloc0 when a type

Previous commits demonstrated that the generator overlooked various
bad naming situations:

- enum members must be valid names, when combined with prefix
- union and alternate branches cannot be marked optional
Valid upstream names match [a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*; valid downstream
names match __[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9._-]*. Enumerations match the
weaker [a-zA-Z0-9._-]+ (in part thanks to QKeyCode picking an enum
that starts with a digit, which we can't change now due to
backwards compatibility). Rather than call out three separate
regex, this patch just uses a broader combination that allows both
upstream and downstream names, as well as a small hack that
realizes that any enum name is merely a suffix to an already valid
name prefix (that is, any enum name is valid if prepending _ fits
the normal rules).
We could reject new enumeration names beginning with a digit by
whitelisting existing exceptions. We could also be stricter
about the distinction between upstream names (no leading
underscore, no use of dot) and downstream (mandatory leading
double underscore), but it is probably not worth the bother.

Conversely, changes to ident-with-escape results show that we still

Previous commits demonstrated that the generator had several
flaws with less-than-perfect unions:
- a simple union that listed the same branch twice (or two variant
names that map to the same C enumerator, including the implicit
MAX sentinel) ended up generating invalid C code
- an anonymous union that listed two branches with the same qtype
ended up generating invalid C code
- the generator crashed on anonymous union attempts to use an
array type
- the generator was silently ignoring a base type for anonymous
unions
- the generator allowed unknown types or nested anonymous unions
as a branch in an anonymous union

None of the existing QMP or QGA interfaces uses a union with a
base type but no discriminator; it is easier to avoid this in the
generator to save room for other future extensions more likely to
be useful. An earlier commit added a union-base-no-discriminator
test to ensure that we eventually give a decent error message;
likewise, removing UserDefUnion outright is okay, because we moved
all the tests we wish to keep into the tests of the simple union
UserDefNativeListUnion in the previous commit. Now is the time to
actually forbid simple union with base, and remove the last
vestiges from the testsuite.

Demonstrate that the qapi generator doesn't deal well with unions
that aren't up to par. Later patches will update the expected
reseults as the generator is made stricter. A few tests work
as planned, but most show poor or missing error messages.
Of particular note, qapi-code-gen.txt documents 'base' only for
flat unions, but the tests here demonstrate that we currently allow
a 'base' to a simple union, although it is exercised only in the
testsuite. Later patches will remove this undocumented feature, to
give us more flexibility in adding other future extensions to union
types. For example, one possible extension is the idea of a
type-safe simple enum, where added fields tie the discriminator to
a user-defined enum type rather than creating an implicit enum from
the names in 'data'. But adding such safety on top of a simple
enum with a base type could look ambiguous with a flat enum;
besides, the documentation also mentions how any simple union can
be represented by an equivalent flat union. So it will be simpler
to just outlaw support for something we aren't using.

The previous commit demonstrated that the generator had several
flaws with less-than-perfect enums:
- an enum that listed the same string twice (or two variant
strings that map to the same C enumerator) ended up generating
an invalid C enum
- because the generator adds a _MAX terminator to each enum,
the use of an enum member 'max' can also cause this clash
- if an enum omits 'data', the generator left a python stack
trace rather than a graceful message
- an enum that used a non-array 'data' was silently accepted by
the parser
- an enum that used non-string members in the 'data' member
was silently accepted by the parser
Add check_enum to cover these situations, and update testcases
to match. While valid .json files won't trigger any of these
cases, we might as well be nicer to developers that make a typo
while trying to add new QAPI code.

This is more of an exercise of the dealloc visitor, where it may
erroneously use an uninitialized discriminator field as indication
that union fields corresponding to that discriminator field/type are
present, which can lead to attempts to free random chunks of heap
memory.

qapi-event.py will parse the schema and generate qapi-event.c, then
the API in qapi-event.c can be used to handle events in qemu code.
All API have prefix "qapi_event".
The script mainly includes two parts: generate API for each event
define, generate an enum type for all defined events.
Since in some cases the real emit behavior may change, for example,
qemu-img would not send a event, a callback layer is used to
control the behavior. As a result, the stubs at compile time
can be saved, the binding of block layer code and monitor code
will become looser.

The purpose of this change is to help create a json file containing
common definitions; each bit of generated C code must be emitted
only one time.
A second history global to all QAPISchema instances has been added
to detect when a file is included more than one time and skip these
includes.
It does not act as a stack and the changes made to it by the
__init__ function are propagated back to the caller so it's really
a global state.

By default, any union will automatically generate a enum type as
"[UnionName]Kind" in C code, and it is duplicated when the discriminator
is specified as a pre-defined enum type in schema. After this patch,
the pre-defined enum type will be really used as the switch case
condition in generated C code, if discriminator is an enum field.

then improves error message with it in checking of exprs.
For common union the patch will check whether base is a valid complex
type if specified. For flat union it will check whether base presents,
whether discriminator is found in base, whether the key of every branch
is correct when discriminator is an enum type.

The parser has a rather unorthodox structure:
Until EOF:
Read a section:
Generator function get_expr() yields one section after the
other, as a string. An unindented, non-empty line that
isn't a comment starts a new section.
Lexing:
Split section into a list of tokens (strings), with help
of generator function tokenize().
Parsing:
Parse the first expression from the list of tokens, with
parse(), throw away any remaining tokens.
In parse_schema(): record value of an enum, union or
struct key (if any) in the appropriate global table,
append expression to the list of expressions.
Return list of expressions.
Known issues:
(1) Indentation is significant, unlike in real JSON.
(2) Neither lexer nor parser have any idea of source positions. Error
reporting is hard, let's go shopping.
(3) The one error we bother to detect, we "report" via raise.
(4) The lexer silently ignores invalid characters.
(5) If everything in a section gets ignored, the parser crashes.
(6) The lexer treats a string containing a structural character exactly
like the structural character.
(7) Tokens trailing the first expression in a section are silently
ignored.
(8) The parser accepts any token in place of a colon.
(9) The parser treats comma as optional.
(10) parse() crashes on unexpected EOF.
(11) parse_schema() crashes when a section's expression isn't a JSON
object.
Replace this piece of original art by a thoroughly unoriginal design.
Takes care of (1), (2), (5), (6) and (7), and lays the groundwork for
addressing the others. Generated source files remain unchanged.
