While the types are indeed useless and even cause problems (gboolean), I agree with Anthony. It's the same as using DWORD for Win32 APIs. Maybe a smaller patch would make sense that minimizes the use of the types to only GLib API calls and the variables nearby. Also if there are real conversion problems with gboolean, those should be fixed. > > Regards, > > Anthony Liguori > >> >> async.c | 12 +++++------- >> coroutine-gthread.c | 8 ++++---- >> hw/9pfs/virtio-9p-coth.c | 2 +- >> hw/fw_cfg.c | 6 +++--- >> hw/qdev-monitor.c | 2 +- >> hw/qdev.c | 4 ++-- >> hw/xen_disk.c | 6 +++--- >> include/qom/object.h | 8 ++++---- >> main-loop.c | 2 +- >> qapi/opts-visitor.c | 10 +++++----- >> qapi/qmp-input-visitor.c | 4 ++-- >> qemu-img.c | 4 ++-- >> qga/channel-posix.c | 25 +++++++++++++------------ >> qga/channel-win32.c | 26 +++++++++++++------------- >> qga/channel.h | 10 +++++----- >> qga/commands-posix.c | 6 +++--- >> qga/commands.c | 2 +- >> qga/guest-agent-command-state.c | 4 ++-- >> qga/guest-agent-core.h | 2 +- >> qga/main.c | 16 ++++++++-------- >> qom/container.c | 2 +- >> qom/object.c | 26 +++++++++++++------------- >> qtest.c | 8 ++++---- >> scripts/checkpatch.pl | 29 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >> target-alpha/cpu.c | 4 ++-- >> target-arm/cpu.c | 2 +- >> target-arm/helper.c | 4 ++-- >> target-i386/cpu.c | 2 +- >> target-m68k/helper.c | 4 ++-- >> target-openrisc/cpu.c | 4 ++-- >> target-ppc/translate_init.c | 12 ++++++------ >> tests/libqtest.c | 20 ++++++++++---------- >> tests/test-visitor-serialization.c | 12 ++++++------ >> trace/simple.c | 8 ++++---- >> vl.c | 6 +++--- >> 35 files changed, 165 insertions(+), 137 deletions(-) >> >> -- >> 1.7.11.7
