[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/3] simplify struct QOM properties and use the result for GUEST_PANICKED

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

This is an alternative approach to simplifying the crash information
patches.

Currently, crash information is exposed twice, through a QOM property
and through a method.  This is because accessing QOM properties with
QAPI struct types is a huge pain in the neck.  Patch 1 fixes this by
providing a simple and well-tested API, that takes care of integrating
the QOM->QObject->QAPI steps into a single function.

Patch 2 then eliminates the get_crash_info method.  Patch 3 finally
cleans up qemu_system_guest_panicked by passing a CPUState* argument
instead of a GuestPanicInformation struct.

v1->v2:
       include missing changes to tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.out 
       tweaks to doc comments
       wrap long lines

Paolo Bonzini (3):
  qom-qobject: introduce object_property_{g,s}et_ptr
  cpu: implement get_crash_info through QOM properties
  vl: pass CPUState to qemu_system_guest_panicked
