Subject: [PULL 6/7] migration/vmstate-dump: Dump array size too as "num"
Date: Wed, 26 Apr 2023 20:12:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230426181253.13286-7-quintela@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230426181253.13286-1-quintela@redhat.com>

From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>

For VMS_ARRAY typed vmsd fields, also dump the number of entries in the
array in -vmstate-dump.

Without such information, vmstate static checker can report false negatives
of incompatible vmsd on VMS_ARRAY typed fields, when the src/dst do not
have the same type of array defined.  It's because in the checker we only
check against size of fields within a VMSD field.

One example: e1000e used to have a field defined as a boolean array with 5
entries, then removed it and replaced it with UNUSED (in 31e3f318c8b535):

-        VMSTATE_BOOL_ARRAY(core.eitr_intr_pending, E1000EState,
-                           E1000E_MSIX_VEC_NUM),
+        VMSTATE_UNUSED(E1000E_MSIX_VEC_NUM),

It's a legal replacement but vmstate static checker is not happy with it,
because it checks only against the "size" field between the two
fields (here one is BOOL_ARRAY, the other is UNUSED):

For BOOL_ARRAY:

      {
        "field": "core.eitr_intr_pending",
        "version_id": 0,
        "field_exists": false,
        "size": 1
      },

For UNUSED:

      {
        "field": "unused",
        "version_id": 0,
        "field_exists": false,
        "size": 5
      },

It's not the script to blame because there's just not enough information
dumped to show the total size of the entry for an array.  Add it.

Note that this will not break old vmstate checker because the field will
just be ignored.
