bdrv_reopen_prepare() assumes that all BDS options are strings, which is not necessarily correct. This series introduces a new qobject_is_equal() function which can be used to test whether any options have changed, independently of their type.
v5: - Patch 1: Changes due to rebase - Patch 2: Added - Patch 3: Made double QNums always unequal to integer QNums [Markus] - Patch 6: - Removed many tests because they no longer make sense with double QNums generally being unequal to integer QNums - Use NAN from math.h instead of 0.0 / 0.0 [Eric] - dm42 should be a double, not an int (and I didn't notice because -42.0 was supposed to be equal to -42 anyway) - Rebase changes because QNull is now an own type git-backport-diff against v4: Key: [----] : patches are identical [####] : number of functional differences between upstream/downstream patch [down] : patch is downstream-only The flags [FC] indicate (F)unctional and (C)ontextual differences, respectively 001/6:[0023] [FC] 'qapi/qnull: Add own header' 002/6:[down] 'qapi/qlist: Add qlist_append_null() macro' 003/6:[0035] [FC] 'qapi: Add qobject_is_equal()' 004/6:[----] [--] 'block: qobject_is_equal() in bdrv_reopen_prepare()' 005/6:[----] [--] 'iotests: Add test for non-string option reopening' 006/6:[0153] [FC] 'tests: Add check-qobject for equality tests' Max Reitz (6): qapi/qnull: Add own header qapi/qlist: Add qlist_append_null() macro qapi: Add qobject_is_equal() block: qobject_is_equal() in bdrv_reopen_prepare() iotests: Add test for non-string option reopening tests: Add check-qobject for equality tests tests/Makefile.include | 4 +- include/qapi/qmp/qbool.h | 1 + include/qapi/qmp/qdict.h | 2 + include/qapi/qmp/qlist.h | 4 + include/qapi/qmp/qnull.h | 32 +++++ include/qapi/qmp/qnum.h | 1 + include/qapi/qmp/qobject.h | 21 ++- include/qapi/qmp/qstring.h | 1 + include/qapi/qmp/types.h | 1 + block.c | 29 ++-- qapi/qapi-clone-visitor.c | 1 + qapi/string-input-visitor.c | 1 + qobject/qbool.c | 8 ++ qobject/qdict.c | 29 ++++ qobject/qlist.c | 32 +++++ qobject/qnull.c | 11 +- qobject/qnum.c | 54 ++++++++ qobject/qobject.c | 29 ++++ qobject/qstring.c | 9 ++ tests/check-qnull.c | 2 +- tests/check-qobject.c | 315 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/qemu-iotests/133 | 9 ++ tests/qemu-iotests/133.out | 5 + 23 files changed, 575 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) create mode 100644 include/qapi/qmp/qnull.h create mode 100644 tests/check-qobject.c -- 2.13.5
