* qapi: Speed up frontend testsMarkus Armbruster2019-10-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "make check-qapi-schema" takes around 10s user + system time for me. With -j, it takes a bit over 3s real time. We have worse tests. It's still annoying when you work on the QAPI generator. Some 1.4s user + system time is consumed by make figuring out what to do, measured by making a target that does nothing. There's nothing I can do about that right now. But let's see what we can do about the other 8s. Almost 7s are spent running test-qapi.py for every test case, the rest normalizing and diffing test-qapi.py output. We have 190 test cases. If I downgrade to python2, it's 4.5s, but python2 is a goner. Hacking up test-qapi.py to exit(0) without doing anything makes it only marginally faster. The problem is Python startup overhead. Our configure puts -B into $(PYTHON). Running without -B is faster: 4.4s. We could improve the Makefile to run test cases only when the test case or the generator changed. But I'm after improvement in the case where the generator changed. test-qapi.py is designed to be the simplest possible building block for a shell script to do the complete job (it's actually a Makefile, not a shell script; no real difference). Python is just not meant for that. It's for bigger blocks. Move the post-processing and diffing into test-qapi.py, and make it capable of testing multiple schema files. Set executable bits while there. Running it once per test case now takes slightly longer than 8s. But running it once for all of them takes under 0.2s. Messing with the Makefile to run it only on the tests that need retesting is clearly not worth the bother. Expected error output changes because the new normalization strips off $(SRCDIR)/tests/qapi-schema/ instead of just $(SRCDIR)/. The .exit files go away, because there is no exit status to test anymore.

* qapi: Move context-sensitive checking to the proper placeMarkus Armbruster2019-09-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we introduced the QAPISchema intermediate representation (commit ac88219a6c7), we took a shortcut: we left check_exprs() & friends alone instead of moving semantic checks into the QAPISchemaFOO.check(). The .check() assert check_exprs() did its job. Time to finish the conversion job. Move exactly the context-sensitive checks to the .check(). They replace assertions there. Context-free checks stay put. Fixes the misleading optional tag error demonstrated by test flat-union-optional-discriminator. A few other error message improve.

* qapi: Change frontend error messages to start with lower caseMarkus Armbruster2019-09-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Starting error messages with a capital letter complicates things when text can get interpolated both at the beginning and in the middle of an error message. The next patch will do that. Switch to lower case to keep it simpler. For what it's worth, the GNU Coding Standards advise the message "should not begin with a capital letter when it follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn’t the beginning of a sentence. (The sentence conceptually starts at the beginning of the line.)" While there, avoid breaking lines containing multiple arguments in the middle of an argument.

* qapi: Prefix frontend errors with an "in definition" lineMarkus Armbruster2019-09-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We take pains to include the offending expression in error messages, e.g. tests/qapi-schema/alternate-any.json:2: alternate 'Alt' member 'one' cannot use type 'any' But not always: tests/qapi-schema/enum-if-invalid.json:2: 'if' condition must be a string or a list of strings Instead of improving them one by one, report the offending expression whenever it is known, like this: tests/qapi-schema/enum-if-invalid.json: In enum 'TestIfEnum': tests/qapi-schema/enum-if-invalid.json:2: 'if' condition must be a string or a list of strings Error messages that mention the offending expression become a bit redundant, e.g. tests/qapi-schema/alternate-any.json: In alternate 'Alt': tests/qapi-schema/alternate-any.json:2: alternate 'Alt' member 'one' cannot use type 'any' I'll take care of that later in this series.

* qapi: Reject alternates that can't work with keyval_parse()Markus Armbruster2017-05-311-0/+1
Alternates are sum types like unions, but use the JSON type on the wire / QType in QObject instead of an explicit tag. That's why we require alternate members to have distinct QTypes. The recently introduced keyval_parse() (commit d454dbe) can only produce string scalars. The qobject_input_visitor_new_keyval() input visitor mostly hides the difference, so code using a QObject input visitor doesn't have to care whether its input was parsed from JSON or KEY=VALUE,... The difference leaks for alternates, as noted in commit 0ee9ae7: a non-string, non-enum scalar alternate value can't currently be expressed. In part, this is just our insufficiently sophisticated implementation. Consider alternate type 'GuestFileWhence'. It has an integer member and a 'QGASeek' member. The latter is an enumeration with values 'set', 'cur', 'end'. The meaning of b=set, b=cur, b=end, b=0, b=1 and so forth is perfectly obvious. However, our current implementation falls apart at run time for b=0, b=1, and so forth. Fixable, but not today; add a test case and a TODO comment. Now consider an alternate type with a string and an integer member. What's the meaning of a=42? Is it the string "42" or the integer 42? Whichever meaning you pick makes the other inexpressible. This isn't just an implementation problem, it's fundamental. Our current implementation will pick string. So far, we haven't needed such alternates. To make sure we stop and think before we add one that cannot sanely work with keyval_parse(), let's require alternate members to have sufficiently distinct representation in KEY=VALUE,... syntax: * A string member clashes with any other scalar member * An enumeration member clashes with bool members when it has value 'on' or 'off'. * An enumeration member clashes with numeric members when it has a value that starts with '-', '+', or a decimal digit. This is a rather lazy approximation of the actual number syntax accepted by the visitor. Note that enumeration values starting with '-' and '+' are rejected elsewhere already, but better safe than sorry.
