[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/7] qapi: add commands to remove the need (v2)

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/7] qapi: add commands to remove the need (v2)

[Anthony Liguori]

This series implements the necessary commands to implements danpb's idea to
remove -help parsing in libvirt.  We would introduce all of these commands in
1.2 and then change the -help output starting in 1.3.

Here is Dan's plan from a previous thread:

<danpb>

 Basically I'd sum up my new idea as "just use QMP".

  * No new command line arguments like -capabilities

  * libvirt invokes something like

      $QEMUBINARY -qmp CHARDEV -nodefault -nodefconfig -nographics

  * libvirt then runs a number of  QMP commands to find out
    what it needs to know. I'd expect the following existing
    commands would be used

      - query-version             - already supported
      - query-commands            - already supported
      - query-events              - already supported
      - query-kvm                 - already supported
      - qom-{list,list-types,get} - already supported
      - query-spice/vnc           - already supported

 And add the following new commands

      - query-devices             - new, -device ?, and/or -device NAME,? data
 in QMP
      - query-machines            - new, -M ? in QMP
      - query-cpu-types           - new, -cpu ? in QMP

 The above would take care of probably 50% of the current libvirt
 capabilities probing, including a portion of the -help stuff. Then
 there is all the rest of the crap we detect from the -help. We could
 just take the view, that "as of 1.2", we assume everything we previously
 detected is just available by default, and thus don't need to probe
 it.  For stuff that is QOM based, I expect we'll be able to detect new
 features in the future using the qom-XXX monitor commands. For stuff
 that is non-qdev, and non-qom, libvirt can just do a plain version
 number check, unless we decide there is specific info worth exposing
 via other new 'query-XXX' monitor commands.

</danpb>

The one thing to note is that I didn't add a query-devices command because you
can already do:

qmp query-devices --implements=device --abstract=False

To get the equivalent output of -device ?.  Instead, I added a command to list
specific properties of a device which is the equivalent of -device FOO,?

Thank you for testing it.  I neglected to mention that I did a fair bit
of investigation before hand and was able to confirm that all platforms
we care about (Windows, Linux/Unix, OS X) and all compilers we care
about (GCC, LLVM) support weak symbols.

There may be different attribute names across compilers--it wasn't very
clear to me, but they definitely all have the feature in some form.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/7] qapi: add query-cpu-definitions command (v2)

[Anthony Liguori]

This command attempts to map to the behavior of -cpu ?.  Unfortunately, the
output of this command differs wildly across targets.

To accommodate this, we use a weak symbol to implement a default version of the
command that fails with a QERR_NOT_SUPPORTED error code.  Targets can then
override and implement this command if it makes sense for them.

Applied to the qmp branch, thanks.

Hmm, this series broke ppc-softmmu for me:

In file included from /home/lcapitulino/work/src/qmp-unstable/target-ppc/translate_init.c:30:0,
                 from /home/lcapitulino/work/src/qmp-unstable/target-ppc/translate.c:9404:
../qmp-commands.h:23:1: error: unknown type name ‘QDict’
../qmp-commands.h:23:68: error: unknown type name ‘QObject’

But it's not its fault. The problem here is probably a patch in my error
series that is doing header cleanup and qmp-commands.h was probably relying
on qapi-types.h (or some of its include files) including qdict.h.

I'm going to include the following patch in my pull request:

Subject: [PATCH 36/48] scripts: qapi-commands.py: qmp-commands.h: include
 qdict.h

qmp-commands.h declares several functions that have arguments of
type QDict. However, qdict.h is not included. This will cause a
build breakage when a file includes qmp-commands.h but doesn't
include qdict.h.

Curious, I'll look into that.  Thanks

The series breaks cross compilation of QEMU for w32 on Debian Linux:

   LINK  arm-softmmu/qemu-system-armw.exe
../qmp-marshal.o: In function `qmp_marshal_input_query_cpu_definitions':
/home/stefan/w32/qmp-marshal.c:2585: undefined reference to 
`_qmp_query_cpu_definitions'

Weak symbols obviously use a different name mangling, therefore 
qmp_query_cpu_definitions
is not found by the linker.

Adding GCC_WEAK to the declaration of qmp_query_cpu_definitions in 
generated file
qmp-commands.h fixes that.

Stefan Weil

Does this patch fix it?

Yes, Anthony's patch fixes that. I just noticed that he already
applied it to git master.

The solution which I had suggested below would have been much
simpler. Using GCC_WEAK in the declaration worked for me with
gcc from Debian Lenny, too.

Which gcc requires different handling for w32 and non-w32?
