You need to get it through code review first...
Obviously.
(just as a random example, this commit:
https://github.com/aliguori/qemu/commit/46483049813fca2c23fb7cd04eeab89905500c4c
is going down the wrong path because it's incorrectly introducing
knowledge of device internals to the utility i8259_init()
function.)
Eh?
Do you mean:
- qdev_connect_gpio_out(&dev->qdev, 0, irq_set[2]);
+ pin_connect_qemu_irq(&s->int_out[0], irq_set[2]);
There are three ways to do this:
1) pin_connect_qemu_irq(i8259_get_int_out(s), irq_set[2]);
2) pin_connect_qemu_irq(&s->int_out[0], irq_set[2]);
3) pin_connect_qemu_irq(PIN(object_get_child(s, "int_out[0]")), irq_set[2]);
Having converted a lot of devices by hand, I prefer (2). I'd like to move to a
model of:
typedef struct PICDevice
{
DeviceState parent;
Pin int_out[0];
MemoryRegion io;
/*< private >*/
PICState *priv;
} PICDevice;
This let's us use (2), while still embedding devices and keeping the gory state
details private to the implementation.
