An optional bool member of a QAPI struct can be false, true, or absent.
The previous commit demonstrated that socket_listen() and
socket_connect() are broken for absent @tight, and indeed QMP chardev-
add also defaults absent member @tight to false instead of true.
In C, QAPI members are represented by two fields, has_MEMBER and MEMBER.
We have:
has_MEMBER MEMBER
false true false
true true true
absent false false/ignore
When has_MEMBER is false, MEMBER should be set to false on write, and
ignored on read.
For QMP, the QAPI visitors handle absent @tight by setting both
@has_tight and @tight to false. unix_listen_saddr() and
unix_connect_saddr() however use @tight only, disregarding @has_tight.
This is wrong and means that absent @tight defaults to false whereas it
should default to true.
The same is true for @has_abstract, though @abstract defaults to
false and therefore has the same behavior for all of QMP, HMP and CLI.
Fix unix_listen_saddr() and unix_connect_saddr() to check
@has_abstract/@has_tight, and to default absent @tight to true.
However, this is only half of the story. HMP chardev-add and CLI
-chardev so far correctly defaulted @tight to true, but defaults to
false again with the above fix for HMP and CLI. In fact, the "tight"
and "abstract" options now break completely.
Digging deeper, we find that qemu_chr_parse_socket() also ignores
@has_tight, leaving it false when it sets @tight. That is also wrong,
but the two wrongs cancelled out. Fix qemu_chr_parse_socket() to set
@has_tight and @has_abstract; writing testcases for HMP and CLI is left
for another day.
