qemu_boot_opts ("-boot")
in hw/nvram/fw_cfg.c and hw/s390x/ipl.c:
QTAILQ_FIRST(&qemu_find_opts("bootopts")->head)
in softmmu/vl.c:
qemu_opts_find(qemu_find_opts("boot-opts"), NULL)
qemu_name_opts ("-name")
qemu_opts_foreach->parse_name
parse_name does not use id
i.e. they don't need an id. Sometimes its presence is ignored
(e.g. when using qemu_opts_foreach), sometimes all the options
with the id are skipped, sometimes only the first option on the
command line is considered. -boot does two different things
depending on who's looking at the options.
With this patch we just forbid id on merge-lists QemuOptsLists; if the
command line still works, it has the same semantics as before.
qemu_opts_create's fail_if_exists parameter is now unnecessary:
- it is unused if id is NULL
- opts_parse only passes false if reached from qemu_opts_set_defaults,
in which case this patch enforces that id must be NULL
- other callers that can pass a non-NULL id always set it to true
Assert that it is true in the only case where "fail_if_exists" matters,
i.e. "id && !lists->merge_lists". This means that if an id is present,
duplicates are always forbidden, which was already the status quo.
Discounting the case that aborts as it's not user-controlled (it's
"just" a matter of inspecting qemu_opts_create callers), the paths
through qemu_opts_create can be summarized as:
- merge_lists = true: singleton opts with NULL id; non-NULL id fails
- merge_lists = false: always return new opts; non-NULL id fails if dup
