[PATCH v8 00/14] qapi: net: add unix socket type support to netdev backend

[Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>]

"-netdev socket" only supports inet sockets.

It's not a complex task to add support for unix sockets, but
the socket netdev parameters are not defined to manage well unix
socket parameters.

As discussed in:

  "socket.c added support for unix domain socket datagram transport"
  https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/1C0E1BC5-904F-46B0-8044-68E43E67BE60@gmail.com/

This series adds support of unix socket type using SocketAddress QAPI structure.

Two new netdev backends, "stream" and "dgram" are added, that are barely a copy of "socket"
backend but they use the SocketAddress QAPI to provide socket parameters.
And then they also implement unix sockets (TCP and UDP).

Some examples of CLI syntax:

  for TCP:

  -netdev stream,id=socket0,addr.type=inet,addr.host=localhost,addr.port=1234
  -netdev stream,id=socket0,server=off,addr.type=inet,addr.host=localhost,addr.port=1234

  -netdev dgram,id=socket0,\
          local.type=inet,local.host=localhost,local.port=1234,\
          remote.type=inet,remote.host=localhost,remote.port=1235

  for UNIX:

  -netdev stream,id=socket0,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/qemu0
  -netdev stream,id=socket0,server=off,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/qemu0

  -netdev dgram,id=socket0,\
          local.type=unix,local.path=/tmp/qemu0,\
          remote.type=unix,remote.path=/tmp/qemu1

  for FD:

  -netdev stream,id=socket0,addr.type=fd,addr.str=4
  -netdev stream,id=socket0,server=off,addr.type=fd,addr.str=5

  -netdev dgram,id=socket0,local.type=fd,addr.str=4

v8:
  - test ipv4 and ipv6 parameters (stream inet)
  - test abstract parameter (stream unix)
  - add SocketAddressInet supported parameters in qemu-options.hx
    (only stream, supported by the move to QIO)
  - with qio_channel_writev() replace (ret == -1 && errno == EAGAIN)
    by (ret == QIO_CHANNEL_ERR_BLOCK)

v7:
  - add qtests
  - update parameters table in net.json
  - update socket_uri() and socket_parse()

v6:
  - s/netdev option/-netdev option/ PATCH 4
  - s/ / /
  - update @NetdevStreamOptions and @NetdevDgramOptions comments
  - update PATCH 4 description message
  - add missing return in error case for unix stream socket
  - split socket_uri() patch: move and rename, then change content

v5:
  - remove RFC prefix
  - put the change of net_client_parse() into its own patch (exit() in the
    function)
  - update comments regarding netdev_is_modern() and netdev_parse_modern()
  - update error case in net_stream_server_init()
  - update qemu-options.hx with unix type
  - fix HMP "info network" with unix protocol/server side.

v4:
  - net_client_parse() fails with exit() rather than with return.
  - keep "{ 'name': 'vmnet-host', 'if': 'CONFIG_VMNET' }" on its
    own line in qapi/net.json
  - add a comment in qapi/net.json about parameters usage
  - move netdev_is_modern() check to qemu_init()
  - in netdev_is_modern(), check for JSON and use qemu_opts_do_parse()
    to parse parameters and detect type value.
  - add a blank line after copyright comment

v3:
  - remove support of "-net" for dgram and stream. They are only
    supported with "-netdev" option.
  - use &error_fatal directly in net_client_inits()
  - update qemu-options.hx
  - move to QIO for stream socket

v2:
  - use "stream" and "dgram" rather than "socket-ng,mode=stream"
    and ""socket-ng,mode=dgram"
  - extract code to bypass qemu_opts_parse_noisily() to
    a new patch
  - do not ignore EINVAL (Stefano)
  - fix "-net" option
