Eric Blake e58d695e6c qapi: Guarantee NULL obj on input visitor callback error
Our existing input visitors were not very consistent on errors in a
function taking 'TYPE **obj'.  These are start_struct(),
start_alternate(), type_str(), and type_any().  next_list() is
similar, but can't fail (see commit 08f9541).  While all of them set
'*obj' to allocated storage on success, it was not obvious whether
'*obj' was guaranteed safe on failure, or whether it was left
uninitialized.  But a future patch wants to guarantee that
visit_type_FOO() does not leak a partially-constructed obj back to
the caller; it is easier to implement this if we can reliably state
that input visitors assign '*obj' regardless of success or failure,
and that on failure *obj is NULL.  Add assertions to enforce
consistency in the final setting of err vs. *obj.

The opts-visitor start_struct() doesn't set an error, but it
also was doing a weird check for 0 size; all callers pass in
non-zero size if obj is non-NULL.

The testsuite has at least one spot where we no longer need
to pre-initialize a variable prior to a visit; valgrind confirms
that the test is still fine with the cleanup.

A later patch will document the design constraint implemented
here.

Eric Blake 983f52d4b3 qapi-visit: Add visitor.type classification
We have three classes of QAPI visitors: input, output, and dealloc.
Currently, all implementations of these visitors have one thing in
common based on their visitor type: the implementation used for the
visit_type_enum() callback.  But since we plan to add more such
common behavior, in relation to documenting and further refining
the semantics, it makes more sense to have the visitor
implementations advertise which class they belong to, so the common
qapi-visit-core code can use that information in multiple places.

A later patch will better document the types of visitors directly
in visitor.h.

For this patch, knowing the class of a visitor implementation lets
us make input_type_enum() and output_type_enum() become static
functions, by replacing the callback function Visitor.type_enum()
with the simpler enum member Visitor.type.  Share a common
assertion in qapi-visit-core as part of the refactoring.

Move comments in opts-visitor.c to match the refactored layout.

Markus Armbruster da34e65cb4 include/qemu/osdep.h: Don't include qapi/error.h
Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef.  Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere.  Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h.  That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.

Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h.  Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now.  Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.

Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly.  Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h.  Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.

This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third.  Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little.  More work is needed for that one.

Eric Blake dbf1192262 qapi: Change visit_start_implicit_struct to visit_start_alternate
After recent changes, the only remaining use of
visit_start_implicit_struct() is for allocating the space needed
when visiting an alternate.  Since the term 'implicit struct' is
hard to explain, rename the function to its current usage.  While
at it, we can merge the functionality of visit_get_next_type()
into the same function, making it more like visit_start_struct().

Generated code is now slightly smaller:

| {
|     Error *err = NULL;
|
|-    visit_start_implicit_struct(v, (void**) obj, sizeof(BlockdevRef), &err);
|+    visit_start_alternate(v, name, (GenericAlternate **)obj, sizeof(**obj),
|+                          true, &err);
|     if (err) {
|         goto out;
|     }
|-    visit_get_next_type(v, name, &(*obj)->type, true, &err);
|-    if (err) {
|-        goto out_obj;
|-    }
|     switch ((*obj)->type) {
|     case QTYPE_QDICT:
|         visit_start_struct(v, name, NULL, 0, &err);
...
|     }
|-out_obj:
|-    visit_end_implicit_struct(v);
|+    visit_end_alternate(v);
| out:
|     error_propagate(errp, err);
| }

Eric Blake 544a373159 qapi: Don't box branches of flat unions
There's no reason to do two malloc's for a flat union; let's just
inline the branch struct directly into the C union branch of the
flat union.

Surprisingly, fewer clients were actually using explicit references
to the branch types in comparison to the number of flat unions
thus modified.

This lets us reduce the hack in qapi-types:gen_variants() added in
the previous patch; we no longer need to distinguish between
alternates and flat unions.

The change to unboxed structs means that u.data (added in commit
cee2dedb) is now coincident with random fields of each branch of
the flat union, whereas beforehand it was only coincident with
pointers (since all branches of a flat union have to be objects).
Note that this was already the case for simple unions - but there
we got lucky.  Remember, visit_start_union() blindly returns true
for all visitors except for the dealloc visitor, where it returns
the value !!obj->u.data, and that this result then controls
whether to proceed with the visit to the variant.  Pre-patch,
this meant that flat unions were testing whether the boxed pointer
was still NULL, and thereby skipping visit_end_implicit_struct()
and avoiding a NULL dereference if the pointer had not been
allocated.  The same was true for simple unions where the current
branch had pointer type, except there we bypassed visit_type_FOO().
But for simple unions where the current branch had scalar type, the
contents of that scalar meant that the decision to call
visit_type_FOO() was data-dependent - the reason we got lucky there
is that visit_type_FOO() for all scalar types in the dealloc visitor
is a no-op (only the pointer variants had anything to free), so it
did not matter whether the dealloc visit was skipped.  But with this
patch, we would risk leaking memory if we could skip a call to
visit_type_FOO_fields() based solely on a data-dependent decision.

But notice: in the dealloc visitor, visit_type_FOO() already handles
a NULL obj - it was only the visit_type_implicit_FOO() that was
failing to check for NULL. And now that we have refactored things to
have the branch be part of the parent struct, we no longer have a
separate pointer that can be NULL in the first place.  So we can just
delete the call to visit_start_union() altogether, and blindly visit
the branch type; there is no change in behavior except to the dealloc
visitor, where we now unconditionally visit the branch, but where that
visit is now always safe (for a flat union, we can no longer
dereference NULL, and for a simple union, visit_type_FOO() was already
safely handling NULL on pointer types).

Unfortunately, simple unions are not as easy to switch to unboxed
layout; because we are special-casing the hidden implicit type with
a single 'data' member, we really DO need to keep calling another
layer of visit_start_struct(), with a second malloc; although there
are some cleanups planned for simple unions in later patches.

visit_start_union() and gen_visit_implicit_struct() are now unused.
Drop them.

Note that after this patch, the only remaining use of
visit_start_implicit_struct() is for alternate types; the next patch
will do further cleanup based on that fact.

Eric Blake e65d89bf1a qapi: Adjust layout of FooList types
By sticking the next pointer first, we don't need a union with
64-bit padding for smaller types.  On 32-bit platforms, this
can reduce the size of uint8List from 16 bytes (or 12, depending
on whether 64-bit ints can tolerate 4-byte alignment) down to 8.
It has no effect on 64-bit platforms (where alignment still
dictates a 16-byte struct); but fewer anonymous unions is still
a win in my book.

It requires visit_next_list() to gain a size parameter, to know
what size element to allocate; comparable to the size parameter
of visit_start_struct().

I debated about going one step further, to allow for fewer casts,
by doing:
    typedef GenericList GenericList;
    struct GenericList {
        GenericList *next;
    };
    struct FooList {
        GenericList base;
        Foo *value;
    };
so that you convert to 'GenericList *' by '&foolist->base', and
back by 'container_of(generic, GenericList, base)' (as opposed to
the existing '(GenericList *)foolist' and '(FooList *)generic').
But doing that would require hoisting the declaration of
GenericList prior to inclusion of qapi-types.h, rather than its
current spot in visitor.h; it also makes iteration a bit more
verbose through 'foolist->base.next' instead of 'foolist->next'.

Note that for lists of objects, the 'value' payload is still
hidden behind a boxed pointer.  Someday, it would be nice to do:

struct FooList {
    FooList *next;
    Foo value;
};

for one less level of malloc for each list element.  This patch
is a step in that direction (now that 'next' is no longer at a
fixed non-zero offset within the struct, we can store more than
just a pointer's-worth of data as the value payload), but the
actual conversion would be a task for another series, as it will
touch a lot of code.

Eric Blake 08f9541dec qapi: Drop unused error argument for list and implicit struct
No backend was setting an error when ending the visit of a list or
implicit struct, or when moving to the next list node.  Make the
callers a bit easier to follow by making this a part of the contract,
and removing the errp argument - callers can then unconditionally end
an object as part of cleanup without having to think about whether a
second error is dominated by a first, because there is no second
error.

A later patch will then tackle the larger task of splitting
visit_end_struct(), which can indeed set an error.

Eric Blake 337283dffb qapi: Drop unused 'kind' for struct/enum visit
visit_start_struct() and visit_type_enum() had a 'kind' argument
that was usually set to either the stringized version of the
corresponding qapi type name, or to NULL (although some clients
didn't even get that right).  But nothing ever used the argument.
It's even hard to argue that it would be useful in a debugger,
as a stack backtrace also tells which type is being visited.

Therefore, drop the 'kind' argument as dead.

Eric Blake 0b2a0d6bb2 qapi: Swap 'name' in visit_* callbacks to match public API
As explained in the previous patches, matching argument order of
'name, &value' to JSON's "name":value makes sense.  However,
while the last two patches were easy with Coccinelle, I ended up
doing this one all by hand.  Now all the visitor callbacks match
the main interface.

The compiler is able to enforce that all clients match the changed
interface in visitor-impl.h, even where two pointers are being
swapped, because only one of the two pointers is const (if that
were not the case, then C's looseness on treating 'char *' like
'void *' would have made review a bit harder).

Eric Blake 51e72bc1dd qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp).  This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order.  It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.

Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.

Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.

Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
 $ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings').  The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

Eric Blake 04e070d217 qapi: Consolidate visitor small integer callbacks
Commit 4e27e819 introduced optional visitor callbacks for all
sorts of int types, but no visitor has supplied any of the
callbacks for sizes less than 64 bits.  In other words, the
generic implementation based on using type_[u]int64() followed
by bounds-checking works just fine. In the interest of
simplicity, it's easier to make the visitor callback interface
not have to worry about the other sizes.

Adding some helper functions minimizes the boilerplate required
to correct FIXMEs added earlier with regards to questionable
reuse of errp, particularly now that we can guarantee from a
single file audit that value is unchanged if an error is set.

Eric Blake f755dea79d qapi: Make all visitors supply uint64 callbacks
Our qapi visitor contract supports multiple integer visitors,
but left the type_uint64 visitor as optional (falling back on
type_int64); which in turn can lead to awkward behavior with
numbers larger than INT64_MAX (the user has to be aware of
twos complement, and deal with negatives).

This patch does not address the disparity in handling large
values as negatives.  It merely moves the fallback from uint64
to int64 from the visitor core to the visitors, where the issue
can actually be fixed, by implementing the missing type_uint64()
callbacks on top of the respective type_int64() callbacks, and
with a FIXME comment explaining why that's wrong.

With that done, we now have a type_uint64() callback in every
driver, so we can make it mandatory from the core.  And although
the type_int64() callback can cover the entire valid range of
type_uint{8,16,32} on valid user input, using type_uint64() to
avoid mixed signedness makes more sense.

Eric Blake 4c40314a35 qapi: Prefer type_int64 over type_int in visitors
The qapi builtin type 'int' is basically shorthand for the type
'int64'.  In fact, since no visitor was providing the optional
type_int64() callback, visit_type_int64() was just always falling
back to type_int(), cementing the equivalence between the types.

However, some visitors are providing a type_uint64() callback.
For purposes of code consistency, it is nicer if all visitors
use the paired type_int64/type_uint64 names rather than the
mismatched type_int/type_uint64.  So this patch just renames
the signed int callbacks in place, dropping the type_int()
callback as redundant, and a later patch will focus on the
unsigned int callbacks.

Add some FIXMEs to questionable reuse of errp in code touched
by the rename, while at it (the reuse works as long as the
callbacks don't modify value when setting an error, but it's not
a good example to set) - a later patch will then fix those.

No change in functionality here, although further cleanups are
in the pipeline.

        visit_type_CpuInfoBase_fields(v, (CpuInfoBase **)obj, &err);
        if (err) {
            goto out_obj; // if we go from here...
        }
        if (!visit_start_union(v, !!(*obj)->u.data, &err) || err) {
            goto out_obj;
        }
        switch ((*obj)->arch) {
    [...]
        }
    out_obj:
        // ... then *obj is true, and ...
        error_propagate(errp, err);
        err = NULL;
        if (*obj) {
            // we end up here
            visit_end_union(v, !!(*obj)->u.data, &err);
        }
        error_propagate(errp, err);

Harmless only because no visitor implements end_union().  Clean it up
anyway, by deleting the function as useless.

Messed up since we have visit_end_union (commit cee2ded).

Eric Blake d00341af38 qapi: Fix alternates that accept 'number' but not 'int'
The QMP input visitor allows integral values to be assigned by
promotion to a QTYPE_QFLOAT.  However, when parsing an alternate,
we did not take this into account, such that an alternate that
accepts 'number' and some other type, but not 'int', would reject
integral values.

With this patch, we now have the following desirable table:

    alternate has      case selected for
    'int'  'number'    QTYPE_QINT  QTYPE_QFLOAT
      no        no     error       error
      no       yes     'number'    'number'
     yes        no     'int'       error
     yes       yes     'int'       'number'

While it is unlikely that we will ever use 'number' in an
alternate other than in the testsuite, it never hurts to be
more precise in what we allow.

Eric Blake 0426d53c65 qapi: Simplify visiting of alternate types
Previously, working with alternates required two lookup arrays
and some indirection: for type Foo, we created Foo_qtypes[]
which maps each qtype to a value of the generated FooKind enum,
then look up that value in FooKind_lookup[] like we do for other
union types.

This has a couple of subtle bugs.  First, the generator was
creating a call with a parameter '(int *) &(*obj)->type' where
type is an enum type; this is unsafe if the compiler chooses
to store the enum type in a different size than int, where
assigning through the wrong size pointer can corrupt data or
cause a SIGBUS.

Related bug, not not fixed in this patch: qapi-visit.py's
gen_visit_enum() generates a cast of its enum * argument to
int *. Marked FIXME.

Second, since the values of the FooKind enum start at zero, all
entries of the Foo_qtypes[] array that were not explicitly
initialized will map to the same branch of the union as the
first member of the alternate, rather than triggering a desired
failure in visit_get_next_type().  Fortunately, the bug seldom
bites; the very next thing the input visitor does is try to
parse the incoming JSON with the wrong parser, which normally
fails; the output visitor is not used with a C struct in that
state, and the dealloc visitor has nothing to clean up (so
there is no leak).

However, the second bug IS observable in one case: parsing an
integer causes unusual behavior in an alternate that contains
at least a 'number' member but no 'int' member, because the
'number' parser accepts QTYPE_QINT in addition to the expected
QTYPE_QFLOAT (that is, since 'int' is not a member, the type
QTYPE_QINT accidentally maps to FooKind 0; if this enum value
is the 'number' branch the integer parses successfully, but if
the 'number' branch is not first, some other branch tries to
parse the integer and rejects it).  A later patch will worry
about fixing alternates to always parse all inputs that a
non-alternate 'number' would accept, for now this is still
marked FIXME in the updated test-qmp-input-visitor.c, to
merely point out that new undesired behavior of 'ans' matches
the existing undesired behavior of 'asn'.

This patch fixes the default-initialization bug by deleting the
indirection, and modifying get_next_type() to directly assign a
QTypeCode parameter.  This in turn fixes the type-casting bug,
as we are no longer casting a pointer to enum to a questionable
size. There is no longer a need to generate an implicit FooKind
enum associated with the alternate type (since the QMP wire
format never uses the stringized counterparts of the C union
member names).  Since the updated visit_get_next_type() does not
know which qtypes are expected, the generated visitor is
modified to generate an error statement if an unexpected type is
encountered.

Callers now have to know the QTYPE_* mapping when looking at the
discriminator; but so far, only the testsuite was even using the
C struct of an alternate types.  I considered the possibility of
keeping the internal enum FooKind, but initialized differently
than most generated arrays, as in:
  typedef enum FooKind {
      FOO_KIND_A = QTYPE_QDICT,
      FOO_KIND_B = QTYPE_QINT,
  } FooKind;
to create nicer aliases for knowing when to use foo->a or foo->b
when inspecting foo->type; but it turned out to add too much
complexity, especially without a client.

There is a user-visible side effect to this change, but I
consider it to be an improvement. Previously,
the invalid QMP command:
  {"execute":"blockdev-add", "arguments":{"options":
    {"driver":"raw", "id":"a", "file":true}}}
failed with:
  {"error": {"class": "GenericError",
    "desc": "Invalid parameter type for 'file', expected: QDict"}}
(visit_get_next_type() succeeded, and the error comes from the
visit_type_BlockdevOptions() expecting {}; there is no mention of
the fact that a string would also work).  Now it fails with:
  {"error": {"class": "GenericError",
    "desc": "Invalid parameter type for 'file', expected: BlockdevRef"}}
(the error when the next type doesn't match any expected types for
the overall alternate).

Michael Roth 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.

Markus Armbruster 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.

Markus Armbruster e2cd0f4fb4 qapi: Replace start_optional()/end_optional() by optional()
Semantics of end_optional() differ subtly from the other end_FOO()
callbacks: when start_FOO() succeeds, the matching end_FOO() gets
called regardless of what happens in between.  end_optional() gets
called only when everything in between succeeds as well.  Entirely
undocumented, like all of the visitor API.

The only user of Visitor Callback end_optional() never did anything,
and was removed in commit 9f9ab46.

I'm about to clean up error handling in the generated visitor code,
and end_optional() is in my way.  No users mean no test cases, and
making non-trivial cleanup transformations without test cases doesn't
strike me as a good idea.

Drop end_optional(), and rename start_optional() to optional().  We
can always go back to a pair of callbacks when we have an actual need.
