In other words, we just want to confirm with the QOM composition tree for the device.Again, how could this happen? If @virtio_list isn't reliable, why have it in the first place?Honestly, I'm not sure how this even could happen, since the @virtio_list is managed at the realization and unrealization of a virtio device. Given this, I do feel as though the list is reliable, although this might just benaïve of me to say. After giving this a second look, the @virtio_list is only really needed to provide a nice list of all realized virtio devices on the system, along with their full canonical paths. If the user can find the canonical path of a virtio device by searching the QOM composition tree, and assuming we can get a @VirtioDevice object (in code) from this canonical path, then the rest of the QMP/HMP features of these patches could be done by solely by searching the QOM composition tree. However, I think having this list of realized virtio devices as a subset of the QOM composition tree is worth its weight, since the user no longer has to search the entire tree to find virtio devices and piece together their canonical paths. Of course, if we're somehow able to generate a similar list in code by searching the QOM composition tree, then there would be no need for this @virtio_list. However, it's really not clear how, or if, such a list could be generated by parsing the QOM composition tree.I'm not debating whether to have the command right now. I'm debating the introduction of variable @virtio_list. Please consider...This was done to have some kind of synchronicity between @virtio_list and the QOM composition tree, since the list duplicates information that already exists in the tree. This check was recommended in v10 and added in v11 of this patch series.Thanks, I found Markus comments: v10: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/87ee6ogbiw.fsf@dusky.pond.sub.org/__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!LqeLFhE8PtTTg_qKRuP9Kgz5pyTNZLhYeRzp4a2oS8c3D5W8-irZoBW0L_Lf1ozm3qYidYhuVrjxjsAw$... this:My recommendation there was to *delete* virtio_list and search the QOM composition tree instead: @virtio_list duplicates information that exists in the QOM composition tree. It needs to stay in sync. You could search the composition tree instead. The QOM composition tree is the source of truth.Let me tell you a tale of two patches. One created a niche QMP command. It also modified core infrastructure to keep additional state. State that needed to be kept consistent with existing state forever. Consistency was not entirely obvious. The command examined this new state. The examination was simple. The other one created a niche QMP command, and nothing more. The command examined state without changing it. The examination was less simple. One of the two patches had a much easier time in review. Which one could it be... Please give the other approach a serious try.
Ah, okay. I see where you're getting at. Sure, I can give this approach a try and see what I can do with it. Just FYI, I wont be able to get to this right away until sometime early next year. Jonah
