[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/7] add fixed-width visitors and serialization tests

[Michael Roth]

These patches apply on top of qemu.git master, and can also be obtained from:
git://github.com/mdroth/qemu.git visitor-fixed-width-v3

CHANGES SINCE V2:
 - Fix qemu-test errors due to now-strict bounds-checking we doing assignment
   between signed/unsigned types.
 - uint* property getters/setters no longer use int* getters/setters.
 - valid devfn range is now explicitly enforced.

CHANGES SINCE V1:
 - unit tests: covert QmpOutputVisitor qobject to json before passing it to
   QmpInputVisitor*. I.e., actually do the serialization :)
 - QmpInputVisitor, add handling for when a serialized QFloat gets read back
   as a QInt
 - unit tests: add coverage for String visitor
 - StringOutputVisitor: use %f for float representation

These patches add fixed-width visitor types and switches all qdev users over to
them.

We also add a test suite which covers these, as well as does some sanity
checking on Visitors to verify their usability/capabilities for data
serialization.
