qapi net: Elide redundant has_FOO in generated C

The has_FOO for pointer-valued FOO are redundant, except for arrays.
They are also a nuisance to work with. Recent commit "qapi: Start to
elide redundant has_FOO in generated C" provided the means to elide
them step by step. This is the step for qapi/net.json.

Said commit explains the transformation in more detail. The invariant
violations mentioned there do not occur here.

qapi: net: add stream and dgram netdevs

Copied from socket netdev file and modified to use SocketAddress
to be able to introduce new features like unix socket.

"udp" and "mcast" are squashed into dgram netdev, multicast is detected
according to the IP address type.
"listen" and "connect" modes are managed by stream netdev. An optional
parameter "server" defines the mode (off by default)

The two new types need to be parsed the modern way with -netdev, because
with the traditional way, the "type" field of netdev structure collides with
the "type" field of SocketAddress and prevents the correct evaluation of the
command line option. Moreover the traditional way doesn't allow to use
the same type (SocketAddress) several times with the -netdev option
(needed to specify "local" and "remote" addresses).

The previous commit paved the way for parsing the modern way, but
omitted one detail: how to pick modern vs. traditional, in
netdev_is_modern().

We want to pick based on the value of parameter "type". But how to
extract it from the option argument?

Parsing the option argument, either the modern or the traditional way,
extracts it for us, but only if parsing succeeds.

If parsing fails, there is no good option. No matter which parser we
pick, it'll be the wrong one for some arguments, and the error
reporting will be confusing.

Fortunately, the traditional parser accepts *anything* when called in
a certain way. This maximizes our chance to extract the value of
"type", and in turn minimizes the risk of confusing error reporting.

net: Allow hubports to connect to other netdevs

QEMU can emulate hubs to connect NICs and netdevs. This is currently
primarily used for the mis-named 'vlan' feature of the networking
subsystem. Now the 'vlan' feature has been marked as deprecated, since
its name is rather confusing and the users often rather mis-configure
their network when trying to use it. But while the 'vlan' parameter
should be removed at one point in time, the basic idea of emulating
a hub in QEMU is still good: It's useful for bundling up the output of
multiple NICs into one single l2tp netdev for example.

Now to be able to use the hubport feature without 'vlan's, there is one
missing piece: The possibility to connect a hubport to a netdev, too.
This patch adds this possibility by introducing a new "netdev=..."
parameter to the hubports.

To bundle up the output of multiple NICs into one socket netdev, you can
now run QEMU with these parameters for example:

qemu-system-ppc64 ... -netdev socket,id=s1,connect=:11122 \
-netdev hubport,hubid=1,id=h1,netdev=s1 \
-netdev hubport,hubid=1,id=h2 -device e1000,netdev=h2 \
-netdev hubport,hubid=1,id=h3 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=h3

For using the socket netdev, you have got to start another QEMU as the
receiving side first, for example with network dumping enabled:

qemu-system-x86_64 -M isapc -netdev socket,id=s0,listen=:11122 \
-device ne2k_isa,netdev=s0 \
-object filter-dump,id=f1,netdev=s0,file=/tmp/dump.dat

After the ppc64 guest tried to boot from both NICs, you can see in the
dump file (using Wireshark, for example), that the output of both NICs
(the e1000 and the virtio-net-pci) has been successfully transfered
via the socket netdev in this case.

Indentation fixed up manually afterwards.

Some of the lines were manually edited to reduce the line length to below
80 charecters. Some of the lines with newlines in the middle of the

The #include lines were manually updated to allow the code to compile.

qapi: Change Netdev into a flat union

This is a mostly-mechanical conversion that creates a new flat
union 'Netdev' QAPI type that covers all the branches of the
former 'NetClientOptions' simple union, where the branches are
now listed in a new 'NetClientDriver' enum rather than generated
from the simple union. The existence of a flat union has no
change to the command line syntax accepted for new code, and
will make it possible for a future patch to switch the QMP
command to parse a boxed union for no change to valid QMP; but
it does have some ripple effect on the C code when dealing with
the new types.

While making the conversion, note that the 'NetLegacy' type
remains unchanged: it applies only to legacy command line options,
and will not be ported to QMP, so it should remain a wrapper
around a simple union; to avoid confusion, the type named
'NetClientOptions' is now gone, and we introduce 'NetLegacyOptions'
in its place. Then, in the C code, we convert from NetLegacy to
Netdev as soon as possible, so that the bulk of the net stack
only has to deal with one QAPI type, not two. Note that since
the old legacy code always rejected 'hubport', we can just omit
that branch from the new 'NetLegacyOptions' simple union.

qapi: Don't special-case simple union wrappers

Simple unions were carrying a special case that hid their 'data'
QMP member from the resulting C struct, via the hack method
QAPISchemaObjectTypeVariant.simple_union_type(). But by using
the work we started by unboxing flat union and alternate
branches, coupled with the ability to visit the members of an
implicit type, we can now expose the simple union's implicit
type in qapi-types.h:

| struct q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper {
| ImageInfoSpecificQCow2 *data;
| };
|
| struct q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper {
| ImageInfoSpecificVmdk *data;
| };
...
| struct ImageInfoSpecific {
| ImageInfoSpecificKind type;
| union { /* union tag is @type */
| void *data;
|- ImageInfoSpecificQCow2 *qcow2;
|- ImageInfoSpecificVmdk *vmdk;
|+ q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper qcow2;
|+ q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper vmdk;
| } u;
| };

Doing this removes asymmetry between QAPI's QMP side and its
C side (both sides now expose 'data'), and means that the
treatment of a simple union as sugar for a flat union is now
equivalent in both languages (previously the two approaches used
a different layer of dereferencing, where the simple union could
be converted to a flat union with equivalent C layout but
different {} on the wire, or to an equivalent QMP wire form
but with different C representation). Using the implicit type
also lets us get rid of the simple_union_type() hack.

Of course, now all clients of simple unions have to adjust from
using su->u.member to using su->u.member.data; while this touches
a number of files in the tree, some earlier cleanup patches
helped minimize the change to the initialization of a temporary
variable rather than every single member access. The generated
qapi-visit.c code is also affected by the layout change:

net: Permit incremental conversion of init functions to Error

Error reporting for netdev_add is broken: the net_client_init_fun[]
report the actual errors with (at best) error_report(), and their
caller net_client_init1() makes up a generic error on top.

For command line and HMP, this produces an mildly ugly error cascade.

In QMP, the actual errors go to stderr, and the generic error becomes
the command's error reply.

To fix this, we need to convert the net_client_init_fun[] to Error.

To permit fixing them one by one, add an Error ** parameter to the
net_client_init_fun[]. If the call fails without returning an Error,
make up the same generic Error as before. But if it returns one, use
that instead. Since none of them does so far, no functional change.

delivered to that client. Calling this queue "send_queue" is highly
confusing as it has nothing to to with packets send from this client but
to it. Avoid this confusing by renaming it to "incoming_queue".

net: fix qemu_flush_queued_packets() in presence of a hub

When frontend and backend are connected through a hub as below
(showing only one direction), and the frontend (or in general, all
output ports of the hub) cannot accept more traffic, the backend
queues packets in queue-A.

When the frontend (or in general, one output port) becomes ready again,
quemu tries to flush packets from queue-B, which is unfortunately empty.

e1000.0 <--[queue B]-- hub0port0(hub)hub0port1 <--[queue A]-- tap.0

To fix this i propose to introduce a new function net_hub_flush()
which is called when trying to flush a queue connected to a hub.

net: reorganize headers

Move public headers to include/net, and leave private headers in net/.
Put the virtio headers in include/net/tap.h, removing the multiple copies
that existed. Leave include/net/tap.h as the interface for NICs, and
net/tap_int.h as the interface for OS-specific parts of the tap backend.
