[PATCH] qemu-config: use qemu_opts_from_qdict
Posted by Paolo Bonzini 2 years, 9 months ago
Using qemu_opts_absorb_qdict, and then checking for any leftover options,
is redundant because there is already a function that does the same,
qemu_opts_from_qdict.  qemu_opts_from_qdict consumes the whole dictionary
and therefore can just return an error message if an option fails to validate.

This also fixes a bug, because the "id" entry was retrieved in
qemu_config_do_parse and then left there by qemu_opts_absorb_qdict.
As a result, it was reported as an unrecognized option.

Matter of taste I'd have inverted the if statement, but
it fixes my problem, so thanks!

I missed this when I reviewed the series...

Creation of @opts is now in qemu_opts_from_qdict().  Works the same as
before.  Good.  Let's compare the remainder.

Before the patch:

    qemu_opts_absorb_qdict() absorbs entries with keys the QemuOpts accepts.
    It either accepts a (non-empty) list of keys, or any key.

    It fails when any of the absorbed entries fails
    qemu_opts_from_qdict_entry().

    qemu_config_do_parse() additionally fails when unabsorbed keys remain.

After the patch:

    qemu_opts_from_qdict() feeds all entries to
    qemu_opts_from_qdict_entry().  Which silently ignores entry "id",
    and fails for keys the QemuOpts doesn't accept.

Good.  The part 'ignores entry "id"' fixes the bug.

Tangent: we silently ignore entries whose value is a QTYPE_QNULL,
QTYPE_QDICT, or QTYPE_QLIST, because qemu_opts_from_qdict_entry() does.
Not changed by this patch, I believe.
