[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/10] globals: Clean up validation and error checking

[Eduardo Habkost]

This series includes multiple changes to the way errors are
handled by the global property system.

The series is based on my machine-next branch, available at:
  https://github.com/ehabkost/qemu.git machine-next

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 01/10] qdev: Don't stop applying globals on first error

[Eduardo Habkost]

qdev_prop_set_globals_for_type() stops applying global properties
on the first error. It is a leftover from when QEMU exited on any
error when applying global property. Now we print a warning about
the first error, bug ignore all other global properties after it.

For example, the following command-line will not set CPUID level
to 3, but will warn only about "x86_64-cpu.vendor" being ignored.

  $ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 \
      -global x86_64-cpu.vendor=x \
      -global x86_64-cpu.level=3
  qemu-system-x86_64: Warning: global x86_64-cpu.vendor=x ignored: Property '.vendor' doesn't take value 'x'

Fix this by not returning from qdev_prop_set_globals_for_type()
on the first error.

Is always nice to have more warnings.

Might want to add "Messed up in commit 25f8dd9."

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 02/10] qdev: Eliminate qemu_add_globals() function

[Eduardo Habkost]

The function is just a helper to handle the -global options, it
can stay in vl.c like most qemu_opts_foreach() calls.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 03/10] vl: Reject invalid class names on -global

[Eduardo Habkost]

Instead of just printing a warning very late, reject obviously
invalid -global arguments by validating the class name.

qdev_prop_check_globals() runs between machine creation and the main

This runs right before machine creation.

Any types registered between here and qdev_prop_check_globals() are no
longer visible for class name check.  But nothing should register types
then.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 04/10] qdev: Use error_prepend() for errors applying globals

[Eduardo Habkost]

The same Error* will be used in an error_propagate() call in the
future, so prepend a "can't apply global" prefix to it.

You reword the error message.  Should be mentioned in the commit
message.

Why do you need to prepend the "Warning: ..." in two steps, first
error_prepend() for the "...", then error_reportf_err() for "Warning: "?
Perhaps it'll become clear later in the series, but it's not obvious
now.

Will mention in in the commit message in v2.

The split is useful for patch 05/10. I will squash both patches,
as you suggested in another message.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 05/10] qdev: GlobalProperty.errp field

[Eduardo Habkost]

The new field will allow error handling to be configured by
qdev_prop_register_global() callers: &error_fatal and
&error_abort can be used to make QEMU exit or abort if any errors
are reported when applying the properties.

Now I understand.  Suggest to squash the previous patch into this one.

"If set" is awkward, because it's not what we usually mean when we talk
about an error being set.  Suggest "If non-null".

But what makes null special isn't that errors won't be propagated.  In
fact, the code behaves as if they were (propagating to null frees the
error, which is exactly what the code does), *except* for one thing that
isn't mentioned here, but should be: we print a warning.

What about:

 * @errp: Error destination, used like a first argument of error_setg(),
 * except with null @errp, we print warnings instead of ignoring errors
 * silently.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 07/10] vl: Set errp to &error_abort on machine compat_props

[Eduardo Habkost]

Use the new GlobalProperty.errp field to handle compat_props
errors.

Example output before this change:
(with an intentionally broken entry added to PC_COMPAT_1_3 just
for testing)

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc-1.3
  qemu-system-x86_64: hw/core/qdev-properties.c:1091: qdev_prop_set_globals_for_type: Assertion `prop->user_provided' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)

After:

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc-1.3
  Unexpected error in x86_cpuid_set_vendor() at /home/ehabkost/rh/proj/virt/qemu/target-i386/cpu.c:1688:

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 08/10] qdev: Eliminate "global not used" warning

[Eduardo Habkost]

qdev_prop_check_globals() tries to warn the user if a given
-global option was not used. But it does that only if the device
is not hotpluggable.

The warning also makes it harder for management code or people
that write their own scripts or config files: there's no way to
know if a given -global option will trigger a warning or not,
because we don't have any introspection mechanism to check if a
machine-type instantiates a given device or not.

The warning is also the only reason we have the 'user_provided'
and 'used' fields in struct GlobalProperty. Removing the check
will let us simplify the code.

In other words, the warning is nearly useless and gets in our way
and our users' way. Remove it.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 10/10] machine: Skip global registration for non-existing classes

[Eduardo Habkost]

MachineClass::compat_props may point to class names that are not
compiled into the QEMU binary. Skip registering those as global
properties. This will allow the qdev global property code to
implement stricter checks on the global property values in the
future.

This I understand. It ensure a corresponding class is in QEMU binary.
But even so, if such property is not available should we silently continue?
Maybe the user things the property is set...

This I don't understand. Do we check here?

Regarding my last question, it seems you followed an existing pattern
here, however I don't quite understand, we found the class,
why do we need to ensure is a TYPE_DEVICE?

What error case do we want to prevent?

Globals are a TYPE_DEVICE feature (implemented in
device_post_init()). Registering globals for non-TYPE_DEVICE
classes don't work.
