2016-02-16qom: add helpers for UserCreatable object typesDaniel P. Berrange1-0/+92
The QMP monitor code has two helper methods object_add and qmp_object_del that are called from several places in the code (QMP, HMP and main emulator startup). The HMP and main emulator startup code also share further logic that extracts the qom-type & id values from a qdict. We soon need to use this logic from qemu-img, qemu-io and qemu-nbd too, but don't want those to depend on the monitor, nor do we want to duplicate the code. To avoid this, move some code out of qmp.c and hmp.c adding new methods to qom/object_interfaces.c - user_creatable_add - takes a QDict holding a full object definition & instantiates it - user_creatable_add_type - takes an ID, type name, and QDict holding object properties & instantiates it - user_creatable_add_opts - takes a QemuOpts holding a full object definition & instantiates it - user_creatable_add_opts_foreach - variant on user_creatable_add_opts which can be directly used in conjunction with qemu_opts_foreach. - user_creatable_del - takes an ID and deletes the corresponding object The existing code is updated to use these new methods.

2015-04-01qom: Add can_be_deleted callback to UserCreatableClassLin Ma1-0/+13
If backends implement the can_be_deleted and it returns false, Then the qmp_object_del won't delete the given backends.

2014-01-28add optional 2nd stage initialization to -object/object-add commandsIgor Mammedov1-0/+62
Introduces USER_CREATABLE interface that must be implemented by objects which are designed to created with -object CLI option or object-add QMP command. Interface provides an ability to do an optional second stage initialization of the object created with -object/object-add commands. By providing complete() callback, which is called after the object properties were set. It allows to: * prevents misusing of -object/object-add by filtering out objects that are not designed for it. * generalize second stage backend initialization instead of adding custom APIs to perform it * early error detection of backend initialization at -object/ object-add time rather than through a proxy DEVICE object that tries to use backend.
