/ramble Is the JSON blob ABI? Can we kill it? AFAIR, it only serves to add complexity and to break analyze-script from time to time. We'd be better off parsing the actual stream from a file. Could maybe even use the same loadvm code, but mock the .get functions to print instead of actually loading. Having separate code that parses a "thing" that's not the stream, but that should reflect the stream, but it's not the stream, but pretty close it's a bit weird to me. I recently had to simply open the raw stream on emacs and navigate through it because the file: stream was somehow different from the stream on the qcow2, for the same command line. (that's another point, parsing from the qcow2 would be cool, which the JSON blob doesn't provide today I think) ramble/ > This paves way for future processing of non-NULL markers as well. > > Signed-off-by: Peter Xu <[email protected]> > --- > migration/vmstate-types.c | 12 ++++-------- > migration/vmstate.c | 40 ++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------- > 2 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 23 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/migration/vmstate-types.c b/migration/vmstate-types.c > index b31689fc3c..ae465c5c2c 100644 > --- a/migration/vmstate-types.c > +++ b/migration/vmstate-types.c > @@ -363,14 +363,10 @@ static bool load_ptr_marker(QEMUFile *f, void *pv, > size_t size, > const VMStateField *field, Error **errp) > > { > - int byte = qemu_get_byte(f); > - > - if (byte == VMS_MARKER_PTR_NULL || byte == VMS_MARKER_PTR_VALID) { > - /* TODO: process PTR_VALID case */ > - return true; > - } > - > - error_setg(errp, "%s: unexpected ptr marker: %d", __func__, byte); > + /* > + * Load is done in vmstate core, see vmstate_ptr_marker_load(). > + */ > + g_assert_not_reached(); > return false; > } > > diff --git a/migration/vmstate.c b/migration/vmstate.c > index a3a5f25946..d65fc84dfa 100644 > --- a/migration/vmstate.c > +++ b/migration/vmstate.c > @@ -142,6 +142,21 @@ static void vmstate_handle_alloc(void *ptr, const > VMStateField *field, > } > } > > +static bool vmstate_ptr_marker_load(QEMUFile *f, bool *load_field, > + Error **errp) > +{ > + int byte = qemu_get_byte(f); > + > + if (byte == VMS_MARKER_PTR_NULL) { > + /* When it's a null ptr marker, do not continue the load */ > + *load_field = false; > + return true; > + } > + > + error_setg(errp, "Unexpected ptr marker: %d", byte); > + return false; > +} > + > static bool vmstate_pre_load(const VMStateDescription *vmsd, void *opaque, > Error **errp) > { > @@ -264,30 +279,25 @@ bool vmstate_load_vmsd(QEMUFile *f, const > VMStateDescription *vmsd, > } > > for (i = 0; i < n_elems; i++) { > - bool ok; > + /* If we will process the load of field? */ > + bool load_field = true; maybe valid_ptr would be more clear? > + bool ok = true; > void *curr_elem = first_elem + size * i; > - const VMStateField *inner_field; > > if (field->flags & VMS_ARRAY_OF_POINTER) { > curr_elem = *(void **)curr_elem; > } > > if (!curr_elem && size) { > - /* > - * If null pointer found (which should only happen in > - * an array of pointers), use null placeholder and do > - * not follow. > - */ > - inner_field = vmsd_create_ptr_marker_field(field); > - } else { > - inner_field = field; > + /* Read the marker instead of VMSD itself */ > + if (!vmstate_ptr_marker_load(f, &load_field, errp)) { > + trace_vmstate_load_field_error(field->name, -EINVAL); > + return false; > + } > } > > - ok = vmstate_load_field(f, curr_elem, size, inner_field, > errp); > - > - /* If we used a fake temp field.. free it now */ > - if (inner_field != field) { > - g_clear_pointer((gpointer *)&inner_field, g_free); > + if (load_field) { > + ok = vmstate_load_field(f, curr_elem, size, field, errp); > } > > if (ok) {
