Which ones are affected?
Not a fan of creating stuff on first use, unless there may not be any
use. But no worse than before.

We now additionally create "/machine/unattached" here.

I updated the commit message to this:
qom: Create system containers explicitly
Always explicitly create QEMU system containers upfront.
Root containers will be created when trying to fetch the root object the
1st time. They are:
/objects
/chardevs
/backend
Machine sub-containers will be created only until machine is being
initialized. They are:
/machine/unattached
/machine/peripheral
/machine/peripheral-anon
Note that I also added "backend" per request from Dan, as of now.

True.. since that can be a separate question to answer, I avoided going too
far to dig into which binaries may use containers, which may not.
Thanks,

This is where I would expect 'backend' to have been created
rather than ui/console.c, though you could potentially make
a case to create it from the machine function, snice console
stuff can't be used outside of the machine context, while
chardevs/objects can be used in qemu-img/qemu-nbd, etc

What about creating "backend" container in qemu_create_machine()?

Would it hurt if we do it altogether here even if it won't be used in
qemu-img/qemu-nbd?
IMHO we should either make it simple (assuming empty containers won't hurt
there..), or we should just leave "backend" to ui/ code, so we don't assume
which binary is using the ui code: whoever uses it will create the container.

I remember I started with that but it didn't work. IIRC that's because
machine_initfn() (or somewhere around the init code) requires the
containers to present, hence it's too late even if we create the containers
right after this line:
current_machine = MACHINE(object_new_with_class(OBJECT_CLASS(machine_class)));

So qemu_create_machine_containers() really belongs to
qemu_create_machine() =)

Frankly, I don't immediately get this line..
But when I was trying again just to check my memory, I can't see anything
crash anymore, moving things over.
So while I'll test some more, I can switch to that if I cannot reproduce
any issue with it. That's:

"machine_initfn requires the containers to be present" -> machine_initfn
isn't the place to create them, it has to be before or after. Since it
can't be before, the "after" place is qemu_create_machine_containers().
