QOM names currently don't have any enforced naming rules. This can be problematic, e.g. when they are used on the command line for the "-device" option (where the comma is used to separate properties). To avoid that such problematic type names come in again, let's restrict the set of acceptable characters during the type registration.
First four patches are clean-ups related to comma and colons in type names, and the final patch introduces the check for valid names. v2: - Include Markus' patches in the series - Add patches to clean up colons in type names - Add the check to type_register_internal() instead of type_new() so that we can disallow colons, too - Only allow '+' in legacy names Markus Armbruster (2): docs/system/arm: Fix for rename of type "xlnx.bbram-ctrl" hw: Replace anti-social QOM type names (again) Thomas Huth (3): memory: Remove "qemu:" prefix from the "qemu:ram-discard-manager" type name tests/unit/test-io-task: Rename "qemu:dummy" to avoid colon in the name qom/object: Limit type names to alphanumerical and some few special characters docs/system/arm/xlnx-versal-virt.rst | 4 +-- include/exec/memory.h | 2 +- include/hw/misc/xlnx-versal-cframe-reg.h | 2 +- include/hw/misc/xlnx-versal-cfu.h | 6 ++-- include/hw/misc/xlnx-versal-crl.h | 2 +- include/hw/nvram/xlnx-efuse.h | 2 +- include/hw/nvram/xlnx-versal-efuse.h | 4 +-- include/hw/nvram/xlnx-zynqmp-efuse.h | 2 +- qom/object.c | 41 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/unit/test-io-task.c | 2 +- 10 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) -- 2.41.0
