[Qemu-block] [PATCH 1/4] qapi: Support features for structs


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PATCH 1/4] qapi: Support features for structs
Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2019 16:35:40 +0200

Sometimes, the behaviour of QEMU changes compatibly, but without a
change in the QMP syntax (usually by allowing values or operations that
previously resulted in an error). QMP clients may still need to know
whether the extension is available.

This allows to add a list of features to struct definitions that will be
made visible to QMP clients through schema introspection.

+=== Features ===
+
+Sometimes, the behaviour of QEMU changes compatibly, but without a
+change in the QMP syntax (usually by allowing values or operations that
+previously resulted in an error). QMP clients may still need to know
+whether the extension is available.
+
+For this purpose, a list of features can be specified for a struct type.
+This is exposed to the client as a list of string, where each string
+signals that this build of QEMU shows a certain behaviour.
+
+In the schema, features can be specified as simple strings, for example:
+
+{ 'struct': 'TestType',
+  'data': { 'number': 'int' },
+  'features': [ 'allow-negative-numbers' ] }
+
+Another option is to specify features as dictionaries, where the key
+'name' specifies the feature string to be exposed to clients:
+
+{ 'struct': 'TestType',
+  'data': { 'number': 'int' },
+  'features': [ { 'name': 'allow-negative-numbers' } ] }
+
+This expanded form is necessary if you want to make the feature
+conditional (see below in "Configuring the schema").
+
+
 === Downstream extensions ===

+Similarly, features can be specified as a dictionary with a 'name' and
+an 'if' key.
+
+Example: a conditional 'allow-negative-numbers' feature
+
+{ 'struct': 'TestType',

+  'features': [ { 'name': 'allow-negative-numbers',
+                  'if' 'defined(IFCOND)' } ] }

 Please note that you are responsible to ensure that the C code will
 compile with an arbitrary combination of conditions, since the
 generators are unable to check it at this point.
