Oh I didn't see that this had already been merged :/

It's not a reason to block this series, but I'd still like to see your
changes to ParallelState and ISAParallelState merged separately since they
are a better match for our QOM coding standards.

v2:
* Export ParallelState and ISAParallelState (Mark)

Testing done:
* `make check`

Do we know who is going to pick up these series? I can send a PR if no-one 
minds?



Go ahead:

Acked-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

Thanks Michael! Is there any objection to also including 
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20230531211043.41724-1-shentey@gmail.com/ at the same 
time?

Bernhard: if you are able to submit a rebased version of the ISA_PARALLEL 
cleanups at https://patchew.org/QEMU/20230521123049.312349-1-shentey@gmail.com/ 
I think it is worth considering those for inclusion in the PR as well (note the 
comments re: an updated commit message and register definitions, but I can't 
really do this myself because of the missing SoB).

What could I put into the commit message?

That comment came from Zoltan (see https://patchew.org/QEMU/20230521123049.312349-1-shentey@gmail.com/20230521123049.312349-5-shentey@gmail.com/#77413450-244e-287b-ad21-e57cb5e2abf5@eik.bme.hu). Zoltan, would you like to suggest some alternative wording?

If not, feel free to take my message at https://patchew.org/QEMU/20230604131450.428797-1-mark.cave-ayland@ilande.co.uk/20230604131450.428797-14-mark.cave-ayland@ilande.co.uk/ and tweak it accordingly.

I'm also wondering: Why export the structure but not the register definitions? 
Are the register definitions not part of the interface? I think these could be 
used in unittests -- if we had any -- to avoid magic numbers.

In theory that could be possible, but it's not something that people have requested (yet). From the QEMU perspective a device is something with memory regions and gpios that can be wired up within a board, so unless the #defines are used directly within ParallelState it doesn't make too much sense to export them currently.


ATB,

Mark.
