2017-03-16qapi: Back out doc comments added just to please qapi.pyMarkus Armbruster1-4/+0
This reverts commit 3313b61's changes to tests/qapi-schema/, except for tests/qapi-schema/doc-*. We could keep some of these doc comments to serve as positive test cases. However, they don't actually add to what we get from doc comment use in actual schemas, as we we don't test output matches expectations, and don't systematically cover doc comment features. Proper positive test coverage would be nice.

2017-01-16qapi: add qapi2texi scriptMarc-André Lureau1-0/+4
As the name suggests, the qapi2texi script converts JSON QAPI description into a texi file suitable for different target formats (info/man/txt/pdf/html...). It parses the following kind of blocks: Free-form: ## # = Section # == Subsection # # Some text foo with *emphasis* # 1. with a list # 2. like that # # And some code: # | $ echo foo # | -> do this # | <- get that # ## Symbol description: ## # @symbol: # # Symbol body ditto ergo sum. Foo bar # baz ding. # # @param1: the frob to frobnicate # @param2: #optional how hard to frobnicate # # Returns: the frobnicated frob. # If frob isn't frobnicatable, GenericError. # # Since: version # Notes: notes, comments can have # - itemized list # - like this # # Example: # # -> { "execute": "quit" } # <- { "return": {} } # ## That's roughly following the following EBNF grammar: api_comment = "##\n" comment "##\n" comment = freeform_comment | symbol_comment freeform_comment = { "# " text "\n" | "#\n" } symbol_comment = "# @" name ":\n" { member | tag_section | freeform_comment } member = "# @" name ':' [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment tag_section = "# " ( "Returns:", "Since:", "Note:", "Notes:", "Example:", "Examples:" ) [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment text = free text with markup Note that the grammar is ambiguous: a line "# @foo:\n" can be parsed both as freeform_comment and as symbol_comment. The actual parser recognizes symbol_comment. See docs/qapi-code-gen.txt for more details. Deficiencies and limitations: - the generated QMP documentation includes internal types - union type support is lacking - type information is lacking in generated documentation - doc comment error message positions are imprecise, they point to the beginning of the comment. - a few minor issues, all marked TODO/FIXME in the code Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20170113144135.5150-16-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> [test-qapi.py tweaked to avoid trailing empty lines in .out] Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
2015-05-05qapi: More rigorous checking for type safety bypassEric Blake1-1/+1
Now that we have a way to validate every type, we can also be stricter about enforcing that callers that want to bypass type safety in generated code. Prior to this patch, it didn't matter what value was associated with the key 'gen', but it looked odd that 'gen':'yes' could result in bypassing the generated code. These changes also enforce the changes made earlier in the series for documentation and consolidation of using '**' as the wildcard type, as well as 'gen':false as the canonical spelling for requesting type bypass. Note that 'gen':false is a one-way switch away from the default; we do not support 'gen':true (similar for 'success-response'). In practice, this doesn't matter.

2015-05-05qapi: Unify type bypass and add testsEric Blake1-0/+2
For a few QMP commands, we are forced to pass an arbitrary type without tracking it properly in QAPI. Among the existing clients, this unnamed type was spelled 'dict', 'visitor', and '**'; this patch standardizes on '**', matching the documentation changes earlier in the series. Meanwhile, for the 'gen' key, we have been ignoring the value, although the schema consistently used "'no'" ('success-response' was hard-coded to checking for 'no'). But now that we can support a literal "false" in the schema, we might as well use that rather than ignoring the value or special-casing a random string. Note that these are one-way switches (use of 'gen':true is not the same as omitting 'gen'). Also, the use of '**' requires 'gen':false, but the use of 'gen':false does not mandate the use of '**'. There is no difference to the generated code. Add some tests on what we'd like to guarantee, although it will take later patches to clean up test results and actually enforce the use of a bool parameter.
