Historically, we declared pointer type to our types:
typedef struct _virXXX virXXX;
typedef virXXX *virXXXPtr;
But usefulness of such declaration is questionable, at best.
Unfortunately, we can't drop every such declaration - we have to
carry some over, because they are part of public API (e.g.
virDomainPtr). But for internal types - we can do drop them and
use what every other C project uses 'virXXX *'.
This change was generated by a very ugly shell script that

To prepare for a conversion to GObject, we need virObjectUnref
to have the same API design as g_object_unref, which means it
needs to be void.
A few places do actually care about the return value though,
and in these cases a thread local flag is used to determine
if the dispose method was invoked.

This previous commit introduced a simpler free callback for

commit 49288fac96
Author: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com>

util: hash: Add possibility to use simpler data free function in virHash
It missed two functions in the hash table code which need
to call the alternate data free function, virHashRemoveEntry
and virHashRemoveSet.
After the previous patch though, there is no code that
makes functional use of the 2nd key arg in the data
free function. There is merely one log message that can
be dropped.
We can thus purge the current virHashDataFree callback
entirely, and rename virHashDataFreeSimple to replace
it.

Libvirt currently uses the VIR_AUTOUNREF macro for auto cleanup of
virObject instances. GLib approaches things differently with GObject,
reusing their g_autoptr() concept.
This introduces support for g_autoptr() with virObject, to facilitate
the conversion to GObject.
Only virObject classes which are currently used with VIR_AUTOREF are
updated. Any others should be converted to GObject before introducing
use of autocleanup.

Checking that the derived class is larger than the requested parent
class saves us from some obvious mistakes, but as written, it does not
catch all the cases; in particular, it is easy to forget to update a
VIR_CLASS_NEW when changing the 'parent' member from virObject to
virObjectLockabale, but where the size checks don't catch that. Add a
parameter for one more layer of sanity checking.
It would be cool if we could get gcc to stringize typeof(parent) into
the string name of that type, so that we could confirm that the
precise parent class is in use rather than just a struct that happens
to have the same size as the parent class. But sizeof checks are
better than nothing.
Note that I did NOT change the fact that we require derived classes to
be larger (as the difference in size makes it easy to tell classes
apart), which means that even if a derived class has no functionality
to add (but rather exists for compiler-enforced type-safety), it must
still include a dummy member. But I did fix the wording of the error
message to match the code.

I had to inspect the code to learn whether a final virObjectUnref()
calls ALL dispose callbacks in child-to-parent order (akin to C++
destructors), or whether I manually had to call a parent-class dispose
when writing a child class dispose method. The answer is the
former. (Thankfully, since VIR_FREE wipes out pointers for safety,
even if I had guessed wrong, I probably would not have tripped over a
double-free fault when the parent dispose ran for the second time). I
also had to read the code to learn if a dispose method was even
mandatory (it is not, although getting NULL through VIR_CLASS_NEW
requires a macro). While at it, the VIR_CLASS_NEW macro requires that
the virObject component at offset 0 be reached through the name
'parent', not 'object'.

Up until now we only had virObjectLockable which uses mutexes for
mutually excluding each other in critical section. Well, this is
not enough. Future work will require RW locks so we might as well
have virObjectRWLockable which is introduced here.
Moreover, polymorphism is introduced to our code for the first
time. Yay! More specifically, virObjectLock will grab a write
lock, virObjectLockRead will grab a read lock then (what a
surprise right?). This has great advantage that an object can be
made derived from virObjectRWLockable in a single line and still
continue functioning properly (mutexes can be viewed as grabbing
write locks only). Then just those critical sections that can
grab a read lock need fixing. Therefore the resulting change is
going to be way smaller.
In order to avoid writer starvation, the object initializes RW
lock that prefers writers.

Recent changes to events (commit 8a29ffcf) resulted in new compile
failures on some targets (such as ARM OMAP5):
conf/domain_event.c: In function 'virDomainEventDispatchDefaultFunc':
conf/domain_event.c:1198:30: error: cast increases required alignment of
target type [-Werror=cast-align]
conf/domain_event.c:1314:34: error: cast increases required alignment of
target type [-Werror=cast-align]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
The error is due to alignment; the base class is merely aligned
to the worst of 'int' and 'void*', while the child class must
be aligned to a 'long long'. The solution is to include a
'long long' (and for good measure, a function pointer) in the
base class to ensure correct alignment regardless of what a
child class may add, but to wrap the inclusion in a union so
as to not incur any wasted space. On a typical x86_64 platform,
the base class remains 16 bytes; on i686, the base class remains
12 bytes; and on the impacted ARM platform, the base class grows
from 12 bytes to 16 bytes due to the increase of alignment from
4 to 8 bytes.

When building with static analysis enabled, we turn on attribute

Creation of the virObject class is the one instance where the

* src/util/virobject.h (virClassNew): Use it to force most callers

This introduces a fairly basic reference counted virObject type
and an associated virClass type, that use atomic operations for
ref counting.
In a global initializer (recommended to be invoked using the
virOnceInit API), a virClass type must be allocated for each
object type. This requires a class name, a "dispose" callback
which will be invoked to free memory associated with the object's
fields, and the size in bytes of the object struct.
eg,
virClassPtr connclass = virClassNew("virConnect",
sizeof(virConnect),
virConnectDispose);
The struct for the object, must include 'virObject' as its
first member
eg
struct _virConnect {
virObject object;
virURIPtr uri;
};
The 'dispose' callback is only responsible for freeing
fields in the object, not the object itself. eg a suitable
impl for the above struct would be
void virConnectDispose(void *obj) {
virConnectPtr conn = obj;
virURIFree(conn->uri);
}
There is no need to reset fields to 'NULL' or '0' in the
dispose callback, since the entire object will be memset
to 0, and the klass pointer & magic integer fields will
be poisoned with 0xDEADBEEF before being free()d
When creating an instance of an object, one needs simply
pass the virClassPtr eg
virConnectPtr conn = virObjectNew(connclass);
if (!conn)
return NULL;
conn->uri = virURIParse("foo:///bar")
Object references can be manipulated with
virObjectRef(conn)
virObjectUnref(conn)
The latter returns a true value, if the object has been
freed (ie its ref count hit zero)
