John Snow	31622b2a8a	python: add avocado-framework and tests Try using avocado to manage our various tests; even though right now they're only invoking shell scripts and not really running any python-native code. Create tests/, and add shell scripts which call out to mypy, flake8, pylint and isort to enforce the standards in this directory. Add avocado-framework to the setup.cfg development dependencies, and add avocado.cfg to store some preferences for how we'd like the test output to look. Finally, add avocado-framework to the Pipfile environment and lock the new dependencies. We are using avocado >= 87.0 here to take advantage of some features that Cleber has helpfully added to make the test output here very friendly and easy to read for developers that might chance upon the output in Gitlab CI. [Note: ALL of the dependencies get updated to the most modern versions that exist at the time of this writing. No way around it that I have seen. Not ideal, but so it goes.] Provided you have the right development dependencies (mypy, flake8, isort, pylint, and now avocado-framework) You should be able to run "avocado --config avocado.cfg run tests/" from the python folder to run all of these linters with the correct arguments. (A forthcoming commit adds the much easier 'make check'.)

John Snow	dbe75f5566	python: add devel package requirements to setuptools setuptools doesn't have a formal understanding of development requires, but it has an optional feataures section. Fine; add a "devel" feature and add the requirements to it. To avoid duplication, we can modify pipenv to install qemu[devel] instead. This enables us to run invocations like "pip install -e .[devel]" and test the package on bleeding-edge packages beyond those specified in Pipfile.lock. Importantly, this also allows us to install the qemu development packages in a non-networked mode: `pip3 install --no-index -e .[devel]` will now fail if the proper development dependencies are not already met. This can be useful for automated build scripts where fetching network packages may be undesirable.

John Snow	0542a4c957	python: add mypy to pipenv 0.730 appears to be about the oldest version that works with the features we want, including nice human readable output (to make sure iotest 297 passes), and type-parameterized Popen generics. 0.770, however, supports adding 'strict' to the config file, so require at least 0.770. Now that we are checking a namespace package, we need to tell mypy to allow PEP420 namespaces, so modify the mypy config as part of the move. mypy can now be run from the python root by typing 'mypy -p qemu'. A note on mypy invocation: Running it as "mypy qemu/" changes the import path detection mechanisms in mypy slightly, and it will fail. See https://github.com/python/mypy/issues/8584 for a decent entry point with more breadcrumbs on the various behaviors that contribute to this subtle difference.

John Snow	21d0b86679	python: add excluded dirs to flake8 config Instruct flake8 to avoid certain well-known directories created by python tooling that it ought not check. Note that at-present, nothing actually creates a ".venv" directory; but it is in such widespread usage as a de-facto location for a developer's virtual environment that it should be excluded anyway. A forthcoming commit canonizes this with a "make venv" command.

John Snow	3afc32906f	python: add VERSION file Python infrastructure as it exists today is not capable reliably of single-sourcing a package version from a parent directory. The authors of pip are working to correct this, but as of today this is not possible. The problem is that when using pip to build and install a python package, it copies files over to a temporary directory and performs its build there. This loses access to any information in the parent directory, including git itself. Further, Python versions have a standard (PEP 440) that may or may not follow QEMU's versioning. In general, it does; but naturally QEMU does not follow PEP 440. To avoid any automatically-generated conflict, a manual version file is preferred. I am proposing: - Python tooling follows the QEMU version, indirectly, but with a major version of 0 to indicate that the API is not expected to be stable. This would mean version 0.5.2.0, 0.5.1.1, 0.5.3.0, etc. - In the event that a Python package needs to be updated independently of the QEMU version, a pre-release alpha version should be preferred, but only after inclusion to the qemu development or stable branches. e.g. 0.5.2.0a1, 0.5.2.0a2, and so on should be preferred prior to 5.2.0's release. - The Python core tooling makes absolutely no version compatibility checks or constraints. It may work with releases of QEMU from the past or future, but it is not required to. i.e., "qemu.machine" will, for now, remain in lock-step with QEMU. - We reserve the right to split the qemu package into independently versioned subpackages at a later date. This might allow for us to begin versioning QMP independently from QEMU at a later date, if we so choose. Implement this versioning scheme by adding a VERSION file and setting it to 0.6.0.0a1.

John Snow	ea1213b7cc	python: add qemu package installer Add setup.cfg and setup.py, necessary for installing a package via pip. Add a ReST document (PACKAGE.rst) explaining the basics of what this package is for and who to contact for more information. This document will be used as the landing page for the package on PyPI. List the subpackages we intend to package by name instead of using find_namespace because find_namespace will naively also packages tests, things it finds in the dist/ folder, etc. I could not figure out how to modify this behavior; adding allow/deny lists to setuptools kept changing the packaged hierarchy. This works, roll with it. I am not yet using a pyproject.toml style package manifest, because "editable" installs are not defined (yet?) by PEP-517/518. I consider editable installs crucial for development, though they have (apparently) always been somewhat poorly defined. Pip now (19.2 and later) now supports editable installs for projects using pyproject.toml manifests, but might require the use of the --no-use-pep517 flag, which somewhat defeats the point. Full support for setup.py-less editable installs was not introduced until pip 21.1.1: `7a95720e79` For now, while the dust settles, stick with the de-facto setup.py/setup.cfg combination supported by setuptools. It will be worth re-evaluating this point again in the future when our supported build platforms all ship a fairly modern pip.
