dd883c6f05 qapi: More rigourous checking of types
Now that we know every expression is valid with regards to
its keys, we can add further tests that those keys refer to
valid types.  With this patch, all uses of a type (the 'data':
of command, type, union, alternate, and event; the 'returns':
of command; the 'base': of type and union) must resolve to an
appropriate subset of metatypes  declared by the current qapi
parse; this includes recursing into each member of a data
dictionary.  Dealing with '**' and nested anonymous structs
will be done in later patches.

Update the testsuite to match improved output.

0d8b9fb5f2 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.

d708cdbe87 qapi: Unify type bypass and add tests
For a few QMP commands, we are forced to pass an arbitrary type
without tracking it properly in QAPI.  Among the existing clients,
this unnamed type was spelled 'dict', 'visitor', and '**'; this
patch standardizes on '**', matching the documentation changes
earlier in the series.

Meanwhile, for the 'gen' key, we have been ignoring the value,
although the schema consistently used "'no'" ('success-response'
was hard-coded to checking for 'no').  But now that we can support
a literal "false" in the schema, we might as well use that rather
than ignoring the value or special-casing a random string.  Note
that these are one-way switches (use of 'gen':true is not the same
as omitting 'gen'). Also, the use of '**' requires 'gen':false,
but the use of 'gen':false does not mandate the use of '**'.

There is no difference to the generated code.  Add some tests on
what we'd like to guarantee, although it will take later patches
to clean up test results and actually enforce the use of a bool
parameter.

e53188ada5 qapi: Allow true, false and null in schema json
In the near term, we will use it for a sensible-looking
'gen':false inside command declarations, instead of the
current ugly 'gen':'no'.

In the long term, it will allow conversion from shorthand
with defaults mentioned only in side-band documentation:
 'data':{'*flag':'bool', '*string':'str'}
into an explicit default value documentation, as in:
 'data':{'flag':{'type':'bool', 'optional':true, 'default':true},
         'string':{'type':'str', 'optional':true, 'default':null}}

We still don't parse integer values (also necessary before
we can allow explicit defaults), but that can come in a later
series.

Update the testsuite to match an improved error message.

4dc2e6906e qapi: Better error messages for duplicated expressions
The previous commit demonstrated that the generator overlooked
duplicate expressions:
- a complex type or command reusing a built-in type name
- redeclaration of a type name, whether by the same or different
metatype
- redeclaration of a command or event
- collision of a type with implicit 'Kind' enum for a union
- collision with an implicit MAX enum constant

Since the c_type() function in the generator treats all names
as being in the same namespace, this patch adds a global array
to track all known names and their source, to prevent collisions
before it can cause further problems.  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.

cfdd5bcad5 qapi: Add tests of redefined expressions
Demonstrate that the qapi generator doesn't deal very well with
redefined expressions.  At the parse level, they are silently
accepted; and while the testsuite just stops at parsing, I've
further tested that many of them cause generator crashes or
invalid C code if they were appended to qapi-schema-test.json.
A later patch will tighten things up and adjust the testsuite
to match.

0545f6b887 qapi: Better error messages for bad expressions
The previous commit demonstrated that the generator overlooked some
fairly basic broken expressions:
- missing metataype
- metatype key has a non-string value
- unknown key in relation to the metatype
- conflicting metatype (this patch treats the second metatype as an
unknown key of the first key visited, which is not necessarily the
first key the user typed)

Add check_keys to cover these situations, and update testcases to
match.  A couple other tests (enum-missing-data, indented-expr) had
to change since the validation added here occurs so early.
Conversely, changes to ident-with-escape results show that we still
have problems where our handling of escape sequences differs from
true JSON, which will matter down the road if we allow arbitrary
default string values for optional parameters (but for now is not
too bad, as we currently can avoid unicode escaping as we don't
need to represent anything beyond C identifier material).

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.

9050c65b71 qapi: Add some expr tests
Demonstrate that the qapi generator doesn't deal well with
expressions that aren't up to par. Later patches will improve
the expected results as the generator is made stricter.  Only
a few of the the added tests actually behave sanely at
rejecting obvious problems or demonstrating success.

Note that in some cases, we reject bad QAPI merely because our
pseudo-JSON parser does not yet know how to parse numbers.  This
series does not address that, but when a later series adds support
for numeric defaults of integer fields, the testsuite will ensure
that we don't lose the error (and hopefully that the error
message quality is improved).

Previous patches have led up to the point where I create the
new meta-type "'alternate':'Foo'".  See the previous patches
for documentation; I intentionally split as much work into
earlier patches to minimize the size of this patch, but a lot
of it is churn due to testsuite fallout after updating to the

811d04fd0c qapi: Segregate anonymous unions into alternates in generator
Special-casing 'discriminator == {}' for handling anonymous unions
is getting awkward; since this particular type is not always a
dictionary on the wire, it is easier to treat it as a completely
different class of type, "alternate", so that if a type is listed
in the union_types array, we know it is not an anonymous union.

This patch just further segregates union handling, to make sure that
anonymous unions are not stored in union_types, and splitting up
check_union() into separate functions.  A future patch will change
the qapi grammar, and having the segregation already in place will
make it easier to deal with the distinct meta-type.

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

- 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

a8d4a2e4d7 qapi: Forbid base without discriminator in unions
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.

3d0c482926 qapi: Add some union tests
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.

cf3935907b qapi: Better error messages for bad enums
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.

21cd70dfc1 qapi script: add event support
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.

c7a3f25200 qapi.py: Restructure lexer and parser
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.
