2f52e20597 qapi: Document that input visitor semantics are prone to leaks
Most functions that can return a pointer or set an Error ** value
are decent enough to guarantee a NULL return when reporting an error.
Not so with our generated qapi visitor functions.  If the caller
is not careful to clean up partially-allocated objects on error,
then the caller suffers a memory leak.

Properly fixing it is probably complex enough to save for a later
day, so merely document it for now.

40b3adec13 qapi-visit: Fix two name arguments passed to visitors
The generated code passes mangled schema names to visit_type_enum()
and union's visit_start_struct().  Fix it to pass the names
unadulterated, like we do everywhere else.

Only qapi-schema-test.json actually has names where this makes a
difference: enum __org.qemu_x-Enum, flat union __org.qemu_x-Union2,
simple union __org.qemu_x-Union1 and its implicit enum
__org.qemu_x-Union1Kind.

8c3f8e7721 qapi-visit: Fix generated code when schema has forward refs
The visit_type_implicit_FOO() are generated on demand, right before
their first use.  Used by visit_type_STRUCT_fields() when STRUCT has
base FOO, and by visit_type_UNION() when flat UNION has member a FOO.

If the schema defines FOO after its first use as struct base or flat
union member, visit_type_implicit_FOO() calls
visit_type_implicit_FOO() before its definition, which doesn't
compile.

Rearrange qapi-schema-test.json to demonstrate the bug.

Fix by generating the necessary forward declaration.

0f61af3eb3 qapi: Fix generated code when flat union has member 'kind'
A flat union's tag member gets renamed to 'kind' in the generated
code.  Breaks when another member named 'kind' exists.

Example, adapted from qapi-schema-test.json:

    { 'struct': 'UserDefUnionBase',
      'data': { 'kind': 'str', 'enum1': 'EnumOne' } }

We generate:

    struct UserDefFlatUnion
    {
        EnumOne kind;
        union {
            void *data;
            UserDefA *value1;
            UserDefB *value2;
            UserDefB *value3;
        };
        char *kind;
    };

Kill the silly rename.

fd41dd4eae qapi: Prefer 'struct' over 'type' in generator
Referring to "type" as both a meta-type (built-in, enum, union,
alternate, or struct) and a specific type (the name that the
schema uses for declaring structs) is confusing.  The confusion
is only made worse by the fact that the generator mostly already
refers to struct even when dealing with expr['type'].  This
commit changes the generator to consistently refer to it as
struct everywhere, plus a single back-compat tweak that allows
accepting the existing .json files as-is, so that the meat of
this change is separate from the mindless churn of that change.

Fix the testsuite fallout for error messages that change, and
in some cases, become more legible.  Improve comments to better
match our intentions where a struct (rather than any complex
type) is required.  Note that in some cases, an error message
now refers to 'struct' while the schema still refers to 'type';
that will be cleaned up in the later commit to the schema.

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.

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.

cee2dedb85 qapi: add visit_start_union and visit_end_union
In some cases an input visitor might bail out on filling out a
struct for various reasons, such as missing fields when running
in strict mode. In the case of a QAPI Union type, this may lead
to cases where the .kind field which encodes the union type
is uninitialized. Subsequently, other visitors, such as the
dealloc visitor, may use this .kind value as if it were
initialized, leading to assumptions about the union type which
in this case may lead to segfaults. For example, freeing an
integer value.

However, we can generally rely on the fact that the always-present
.data void * field that we generate for these union types will
always be NULL in cases where .kind is uninitialized (at least,
there shouldn't be a reason where we'd do this purposefully).

So pass this information on to Visitor implementation via these
optional start_union/end_union interfaces so this information
can be used to guard against the situation above. We will make
use of this information in a subsequent patch for the dealloc
visitor.

297a3646c2 qapi: Replace uncommon use of the error API by the common one
We commonly use the error API like this:

    err = NULL;
    foo(..., &err);
    if (err) {
        goto out;
    }
    bar(..., &err);

Every error source is checked separately.  The second function is only
called when the first one succeeds.  Both functions are free to pass
their argument to error_set().  Because error_set() asserts no error
has been set, this effectively means they must not be called with an
error set.

The qapi-generated code uses the error API differently:

    // *errp was initialized to NULL somewhere up the call chain
    frob(..., errp);
    gnat(..., errp);

Errors accumulate in *errp: first error wins, subsequent errors get
dropped.  To make this work, the second function does nothing when
called with an error set.  Requires non-null errp, or else the second
function can't see the first one fail.

This usage has also bled into visitor tests, and two device model
object property getters rtc_get_date() and balloon_stats_get_all().

With the "accumulate" technique, you need fewer error checks in
callers, and buy that with an error check in every callee.  Can be
nice.

However, mixing the two techniques is confusing.  You can't use the
"accumulate" technique with functions designed for the "check
separately" technique.  You can use the "check separately" technique
with functions designed for the "accumulate" technique, but then
error_set() can't catch you setting an error more than once.

Standardize on the "check separately" technique for now, because it's
overwhelmingly prevalent.

    { 'file': { 'filename': '/tmp/mydisk.qcow2', 'read-only': true } }

Unions like this are specified in the schema with an empty dict as
discriminator. For this example you could take:

    { 'union': 'BlockRef',
      'discriminator': {},
      'data': { 'definition': 'BlockOptions',
                'reference': 'str' } }
    { 'type': 'ExampleObject',
      'data: { 'file': 'BlockRef' } }

50f2bdc75c qapi: Flat unions with arbitrary discriminator
Instead of the rather verbose syntax that distinguishes base and
subclass fields...

  { "type": "file",
    "read-only": true,
    "data": {
        "filename": "test"
    } }

...we can now have both in the same namespace, allowing a more direct
mapping of the command line, and moving fields between the common base
and subclasses without breaking the API:

  { "driver": "file",
    "read-only": true,
    "filename": "test" }

0aef92b90d qapi-visit.py: Implement 'base' for unions
This implements the visitor part of base types for unions. Parsed into
QMP, this example schema definition...

    { 'type': 'BlockOptionsBase', 'data': { 'read-only': 'bool' } }
    { 'type': 'BlockOptionsQcow2, 'data': { 'lazy-refcounts': 'bool' } }

    { 'union': 'BlockOptions',
      'base': 'BlockOptionsBase',
      'data': {
          'raw': 'BlockOptionsRaw'
          'qcow2': 'BlockOptionsQcow2'
      } }

...would describe the following JSON object:

    { "type": "qcow2",
      "read-only": true,
      "data": { "lazy-refcounts": false } }

c664aef551 qapi: qapi-visit.py, fix list handling for union types
Currently we assume non-list types when generating visitor routines for
union types. This is broken, since values like ['Type'] need to mapped
to 'TypeList'.

We already have a type_name() function to handle this that we use for
generating struct visitors, so use that here as well.
