[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 0/7] qom: more efficient object property handling

[Daniel P. Berrange]

This patch series is a followup to

 v3: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-10/msg02024.html
 v2: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-09/msg05953.html

This series introduces a concept of object property iterators
to QOM so callers are insulated from the specific data structures
used for storing properties against objects/classes. It then
converts Object to use a GHashTable for storing properties.
Finally it introduces ObjectClass properties.

Probably the only controversial thing is the item Pavel points
out about object_child_foreach iterators now being forbidden
from modifying the object composition tree.

Changed in v4:

 - Create ObjectPropertyIterator struct to allow inline
   iteration, instead of using callback functions
 - Convert spapr and net filter code to new iterators too
 - Extend check-qom-proplist.c test to cover new iterators
   and class property usage

Daniel P. Berrange (6):
  qom: introduce ObjectPropertyIterator struct for iteration
  qmp: convert QMP code to use object property iterators
  vl: convert machine help code to use object property iterators
  ppc: convert spapr code to use object property iterators
  net: convert net filter code to use object property iterators
  qom: allow properties to be registered against classes

Pavel Fedin (1):
  qom: replace object property list with GHashTable
