tests/qapi-schema/double-type.json: In struct 'bar':
tests/qapi-schema/double-type.json:2: unknown key 'command' in struct 'bar'
Valid keys are 'base', 'data', 'features', 'if', 'struct'.
qapi: Improve reporting of missing / unknown definition keys Have check_exprs() call check_keys() later, so its error messages gain an "in definition" line. Both check_keys() and check_name_is_str() check the definition's name is a string. Since check_keys() now runs after check_name_is_str() rather than before, its check is dead. Bury it. Checking values in check_keys() is unclean anyway.

qapi: Change frontend error messages to start with lower case Starting error messages with a capital letter complicates things when text can get interpolated both at the beginning and in the middle of an error message. The next patch will do that. Switch to lower case to keep it simpler. For what it's worth, the GNU Coding Standards advise the message "should not begin with a capital letter when it follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn’t the beginning of a sentence. (The sentence conceptually starts at the beginning of the line.)" While there, avoid breaking lines containing multiple arguments in the middle of an argument.

qapi: Add feature flags to struct types Sometimes, the behaviour of QEMU changes without a change in the QMP syntax (usually by allowing values or operations that previously resulted in an error). QMP clients may still need to know whether they can rely on the changed behavior. Let's add feature flags to the QAPI schema language, so that we can make such changes visible with schema introspection. An example for a schema definition using feature flags looks like this: { 'struct': 'TestType', 'data': { 'number': 'int' }, 'features': [ 'allow-negative-numbers' ] } Introspection information then looks like this: { "name": "TestType", "meta-type": "object", "members": [ { "name": "number", "type": "int" } ], "features": [ "allow-negative-numbers" ] } This patch implements feature flags only for struct types. We'll implement them more widely as needed.
