2018-09-24json: Eliminate lexer state IN_WHITESPACE, pseudo-token JSON_SKIPMarkus Armbruster1-1/+0
The lexer ignores whitespace like this: on whitespace on non-ws spontaneously IN_START --> IN_WHITESPACE --> JSON_SKIP --> IN_START ^ | \__/ on whitespace This accumulates a whitespace token in state IN_WHITESPACE, only to throw it away on the transition via JSON_SKIP to the start state. Wasteful. Go from IN_START to IN_START on whitespace directly, dropping the whitespace character.

2018-09-24json: Make lexer's "character consumed" logic less confusingMarkus Armbruster1-0/+1
The lexer uses macro TERMINAL_NEEDED_LOOKAHEAD() to decide whether a state transition consumes the input character. It returns true when the state transition is defined with the TERMINAL() macro. To detect that, it checks whether input '\0' would have resulted in the same state transition, and the new state is not IN_ERROR. Why does that even work? For all states, the new state on input '\0' is either IN_ERROR or defined with TERMINAL(). If the state transition equals the one we'd get for input '\0', it goes to IN_ERROR or to the argument of TERMINAL(). We never use TERMINAL(IN_ERROR), because it makes no sense. Thus, if it doesn't go to IN_ERROR, it must be defined with TERMINAL(). Since this isn't quite confusing enough, we negate the result to get @char_consumed, and ignore it when @flush is true. Instead of deriving the lookahead bit from the state transition, make it explicit. This is easier to understand, and a bit more flexible, too.

2018-08-24json: Clean up headersMarkus Armbruster1-0/+54
The JSON parser has three public headers, json-lexer.h, json-parser.h, json-streamer.h. They all contain stuff that is of no interest outside qobject/json-*.c. Collect the public interface in include/qapi/qmp/json-parser.h, and everything else in qobject/json-parser-int.h.
