Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC] remove QEMUOptionParameter

Some overlap with what I'm working on, but since you have code to show,
and I don't, I'll review yours as if mine didn't exist.

Consider renaming to opts, because that's the commonly used name.  You
did it already elsewhere.

I'm afraid you named them "qcow2_create_opts" in qemu-config.c.

This is a bit awkward.

We could have qemu_opt_set_number(), like qemu_opt_set_bool().  Except
qemu_opt_set_bool() has issues.  Luiz's fix is discussed here:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-07/msg02716.html

Luiz, do you plan to respin?

This means ownership of options now passes to bdrv_create().  Which
doesn't free it either.  Should it?

These two functions don't get options, they get a "group name" to pass
to qemu_find_opts().

That's the only use of the value.  What about making the functions
return the QemuOptsList instead?

Or even a function that maps BlockDriverState * to QemuOptsList *.

Ignoring errors is fine, because qemu_opts_create() can't fail when id
is null.

Aside: this is a common pattern.  Maybe we should have a
qemu_opts_create_nofail(QemuOptsList *list) for the purpose.

Another possible user of qemu_opt_set_number().

Can you explain how this code works?  I don't get it.

What about qemu_opt_get_number()?

Beware, QemuOpts support only *unsigned* numbers.

This function knows that certain drivers share options.  Shouldn't that
knowledge be encapsulated in drivers?

I suspect the proper solution is a BlockDriver method returning the
create option list.

Lots of stuff cut to simplify exploring, I guess.

Duplicates the loop searching list->desc[] yet again.  What about
factoring out all the copies into a function?  Separate cleanup patch
preceding this one.

Allocate space for both first and second.

Copy either first or second.

If both are non-null, the space for second remains blank.

Why copy at all?  The loops below copy again, don't they?

g_strdup()

Why do you need to copy name and help?

I'd terminate dest->desc[] after the loop, not in every iteration.

Please avoid duplicating the loop.

What if first and second both contain the same parameter name?

Can you explain why the existing QemuOpts parsers won't do?

The only user I can see is qemu_opts_print(), which can't be right.
