![]() There's no reason to do two malloc's for an alternate type visiting a QAPI struct; let's just inline the struct directly as the C union branch of the struct. Surprisingly, no clients were actually using the struct member prior to this patch outside of the testsuite; an earlier patch in the series added some testsuite coverage to make the effect of this patch more obvious. In qapi.py, c_type() gains a new is_unboxed flag to control when we are emitting a C struct unboxed within the context of an outer struct (different from our other two modes of usage with no flags for normal local variable declarations, and with is_param for adding 'const' in a parameter list). I don't know if there is any more pythonic way of collapsing the two flags into a single parameter, as we never have a caller setting both flags at once. Ultimately, we want to also unbox branches for QAPI unions, but as that touches a lot more client code, it is better as separate patches. But since unions and alternates share gen_variants(), I had to hack in a way to test if we are visiting an alternate type for setting the is_unboxed flag: look for a non-object branch. This works because alternates have at least two branches, with at most one object branch, while unions have only object branches. The hack will go away in a later patch. The generated code difference to qapi-types.h is relatively small: | struct BlockdevRef { | QType type; | union { /* union tag is @type */ | void *data; |- BlockdevOptions *definition; |+ BlockdevOptions definition; | char *reference; | } u; | }; The corresponding spot in qapi-visit.c calls visit_type_FOO(), which first calls visit_start_struct() to allocate or deallocate the member and handle a layer of {} from the JSON stream, then visits the members. To peel off the indirection and the memory management that comes with it, we inline this call, then suppress allocation / deallocation by passing NULL to visit_start_struct(), and adjust the member visit: | switch ((*obj)->type) { | case QTYPE_QDICT: |- visit_type_BlockdevOptions(v, name, &(*obj)->u.definition, &err); |+ visit_start_struct(v, name, NULL, 0, &err); |+ if (err) { |+ break; |+ } |+ visit_type_BlockdevOptions_fields(v, &(*obj)->u.definition, &err); |+ error_propagate(errp, err); |+ err = NULL; |+ visit_end_struct(v, &err); | break; | case QTYPE_QSTRING: | visit_type_str(v, name, &(*obj)->u.reference, &err); The visit of non-object fields is unchanged.

README
QEMU README =========== QEMU is a generic and open source machine & userspace emulator and virtualizer. QEMU is capable of emulating a complete machine in software without any need for hardware virtualization support. By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance. QEMU can also integrate with the Xen and KVM hypervisors to provide emulated hardware while allowing the hypervisor to manage the CPU. With hypervisor support, QEMU can achieve near native performance for CPUs. When QEMU emulates CPUs directly it is capable of running operating systems made for one machine (e.g. an ARMv7 board) on a different machine (e.g. an x86_64 PC board). QEMU is also capable of providing userspace API virtualization for Linux and BSD kernel interfaces. This allows binaries compiled against one architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux PPC64 ABI) to be run on a host using a different architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux x86_64 ABI). This does not involve any hardware emulation, simply CPU and syscall emulation. QEMU aims to fit into a variety of use cases. It can be invoked directly by users wishing to have full control over its behaviour and settings. It also aims to facilitate integration into higher level management layers, by providing a stable command line interface and monitor API. It is commonly invoked indirectly via the libvirt library when using open source applications such as oVirt, OpenStack and virt-manager. QEMU as a whole is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2. For full licensing details, consult the LICENSE file. Building ======== QEMU is multi-platform software intended to be buildable on all modern Linux platforms, OS-X, Win32 (via the Mingw64 toolchain) and a variety of other UNIX targets. The simple steps to build QEMU are: mkdir build cd build ../configure make Complete details of the process for building and configuring QEMU for all supported host platforms can be found in the qemu-tech.html file. Additional information can also be found online via the QEMU website: http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/Linux http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/W32 Submitting patches ================== The QEMU source code is maintained under the GIT version control system. git clone git://git.qemu-project.org/qemu.git When submitting patches, the preferred approach is to use 'git format-patch' and/or 'git send-email' to format & send the mail to the qemu-devel@nongnu.org mailing list. All patches submitted must contain a 'Signed-off-by' line from the author. Patches should follow the guidelines set out in the HACKING and CODING_STYLE files. Additional information on submitting patches can be found online via the QEMU website http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches Bug reporting ============= The QEMU project uses Launchpad as its primary upstream bug tracker. Bugs found when running code built from QEMU git or upstream released sources should be reported via: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/ If using QEMU via an operating system vendor pre-built binary package, it is preferable to report bugs to the vendor's own bug tracker first. If the bug is also known to affect latest upstream code, it can also be reported via launchpad. For additional information on bug reporting consult: http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/ReportABug Contact ======= The QEMU community can be contacted in a number of ways, with the two main methods being email and IRC - qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel - #qemu on irc.oftc.net Information on additional methods of contacting the community can be found online via the QEMU website: http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/StartHere -- End
