[RFC PATCH-for-5.2 0/5] qom: Let ObjectPropertyGet functions return a boolean value

["Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <philmd@redhat.com>]

RFC series to follow Markus direction to simplify error
propagation. Not sure it is worth it yet. It starts to
be interesting when using the QEMU_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT
attribute in the visitors, such:

-- >8 --
@@ -525,6 +533,7 @@ bool visit_type_uint8(Visitor *v, const char *name, uint8_t *obj,
  * Visit a uint16_t value.
  * Like visit_type_int(), except clamps the value to uint16_t range.
  */
+QEMU_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT
 bool visit_type_uint16(Visitor *v, const char *name, uint16_t *obj,
                        Error **errp);

But to get there we need to update the QAPI generators first :)

Philippe Mathieu-Daudé (5):
  hw/core/qdev-properties: Simplify get_reserved_region()
  qom: Split ObjectPropertyAccessor as ObjectProperty[Get/Set]
  qom: Use g_autofree in ObjectPropertyGet functions
  qom: Let ObjectPropertyGet functions return a boolean value
  hw/virtio: Simplify virtio_mem_set_requested_size()
