[RFC PATCH-for-9.1? 2/2] hw/intc/arm_gic: Only provide query-gic-capabilities when GIC built-in
Posted by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 3 months, 2 weeks ago
When configuring QEMU with --without-default-devices and
not including machines using a GIC, the GIC model is not
built in but the 'query-gic-capabilities' command still
returns false hopes about GIC:

  {"execute": "query-gic-capabilities"}
  {"return": [{"emulated": true, "version": 3, "kernel": false}, {"emulated": true, "version": 2, "kernel": false}]}

Restrict the command to when the GIC is available. If it
isn't we'll get:

  { "execute": "query-gic-capabilities" }
  {"error": {"class": "CommandNotFound", "desc": "The command query-gic-capabilities has not been found"}}

Now qapi-commands-misc-target.h is generated guarded with
'#ifdef CONFIG_ARM_GIC', and CONFIG_ARM_GIC is defined per
target in CONFIG_DEVICES.

I'll update the patch description, but does this makes
sense to you? QAPI headers don't include headers defining
guards, we have to include them manually where we use QAPI
headers.

Hmm.  Then the generated headers aren't self-contained anymore.

Having to manually include a configuration header like CONFIG_DEVICES
wherever you use configuration symbols strikes me as unadvisable when
uses include checking for definedness, such as #ifdef: silent miscompile
when you forget to include.

This is why Autoconf wants you to include config.h first in any .c: it
makes #ifdef & friends safe.

qemu/osdep.h does include some configuration headers:

    #include "config-host.h"
    #ifdef COMPILING_PER_TARGET
    #include CONFIG_TARGET
    #else
    #include "exec/poison.h"
    #endif

Why not CONFIG_DEVICES?

The stuff in CONFIG_DEVICES is target-specific, so wanting
to include it should be rare (currently we include it in
only about 25 files). Any file that includes it has to be
a compile-per-target file, and generally we'd rather avoid that.
Plus it's a bit odd to need to change code based on whether
some other device was configured into the system, so I think
that's something worth restricting to only files that effectively
opt in to it.

Since all the macros defined in CONFIG_DEVICES are poisoned by
exec/poison.h, which *is* included by qemu/osdep.h, target-independent
files never need to include CONFIG_DEVICES.  My question was strictly
about target-dependent files, i.e. exactly the ones that include
CONFIG_TARGET.

I agree it's a bit odd for device code to check whether some other
device is also selected for the current target.

But is it odd for the QAPI schema to define a device-specific command
only when the device is selected?

Is accidental use of a macro from CONFIG_DEVICES a risk?  Is the risk
mitigated to some useful degree by having to include CONFIG_DEVICES?

I consider the combination of testing configuration symbols with #ifdef
and requiring a manual #include to actually get the symbols (and make
the #ifdef work) bad practice.

Options:

1. Approximate symbols from CONFIG_DEVICES with symbols from
   CONFIG_TARGET.  This is what we do now.

2. Use symbols from CONFIG_DEVICES.  Generated headers are no longer
   self-contained.  Strong dislike.

3. Define device-specific stuff unconditionally.  We get to fool around
   with stubs, binaries carry more useless code, and introspection
   becomes less useful.  Meh.

Thoughts?

I think that 3 is the way to go. With a single-QEMU-executable
there are going to be lots and lots of cases where a QAPI
command needs to be present in the binary but won't be
applicable for the particular machine type / target architecture
currently being emulated. So "the commands always exist but they
might give you a suitable error if they're not relevant for
the config you're currently running" is more consistent.

Regarding introspection, doing it based on "we didn't put this
in at compile time" is going to give you inaccurate results:
even if a command was compiled in doesn't mean it's going to
be relevant to what you want to run.
