[Qemu-devel] [PULL v2 16/27] qom: Make object_property_set_qobject()'s input visitor strict

[Markus Armbruster]

Commit 240f64b made all qobject input visitors created outside tests
strict, except for the one in object_property_set_qobject().  That one
was left behind only because Eric couldn't spare the time to figure
out whether making it strict would break anything, with a TODO
comment.  Time to resolve it.

Strict makes a difference only for otherwise successful visits of QAPI
structs or unions.  Let's examine what the callers of
object_property_set_qobject() visit:

* object_property_set_str(), object_property_set_bool(),
  object_property_set_int() visit a QString, QBool, QInt,
  respectively.  Strictness can't matter.

* qmp_qom_set visits its @value argument.  Comes straight from QMP and
  can be anything ('any' in the QAPI schema).  Strictness matters when
  the property's set() method visits a struct or union QAPI type.

  No such methods exist, thus switching to strict can't break
  anything.

  If we acquire such methods in the future, we'll *want* the visitor
  to be strict, so that unexpected members get rejected as they should
  be.

Switch to strict.
