With recent migrate QAPI changes, enabling the direct use of the 'channels' argument to avoid redundant URI string parsing is achieved.
To ensure backward compatibility, both 'uri' and 'channels' are kept as optional parameters in migration QMP commands. However, they are mutually exhaustive, requiring at least one for a successful migration connection. This patchset adds qtests to validate 'uri' and 'channels' arguments' mututally exhaustive behaviour. Additionally, all migration qtests fail to employ 'channel' as the primary method for validating migration QAPIs. This patchset also adds test to enforce only use of 'channel' argument as the initial entry point for migration QAPIs. Patch Summary: ------------- Patch 1-2: --------- Introduce 'to' object inside migrate_qmp() so and move the calls to migrate_get_socket_address() inside migrate_qmp. Also, replace connect_uri with args->connect_uri everywhere. Patch 3-5: --------- Add channels argument to allow both migration QAPI arguments independently into migrate_qmp and migrate_qmp_fail. migrate_qmp requires the port value to be changed from 0 to port value coming from migrate_get_socket_address. Add migrate_set_ports to address this change of port value. Patch 6-7: --------- Add 2 negative tests to validate mutually exhaustive behaviour of migration QAPIs. Add a positive multifd_tcp_plain qtest with only channels as the initial entry point for migration QAPIs. v2->v3 Changelog: ----------------- 1. 'channels' introduction is not required now for migrate_qmp_incoming 2. Refactor the code into 7 different patches 3. 'channels' introduction is not required now for migrate_qmp_incoming 4. Remove custom function for converting string to MigrationChannelList 5. move calls for migrate_get_socket_address inside migrate_qmp so that migrate_set_ports can replace the QAPI's port with correct value. Het Gala (7): Add 'to' object into migrate_qmp() Replace connect_uri and move migrate_get_socket_address inside migrate_qmp Add channels parameter in migrate_qmp_fail Add migrate_set_ports into migrate_qmp to change migration port number Add channels parameter in migrate_qmp Add multifd_tcp_plain test using list of channels instead of uri Add negative tests to validate migration QAPIs tests/qtest/migration-helpers.c | 109 +++++++++++++++++++- tests/qtest/migration-helpers.h | 10 +- tests/qtest/migration-test.c | 176 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- 3 files changed, 208 insertions(+), 87 deletions(-) -- 2.22.3
