Re: [libvirt] [PATCHv2 03/13] virbuf: more detailed error reporting

The next patch wants to add some sanity checking, which would
be a different error than ENOMEM. Many existing callers blindly
report OOM failure if virBuf reports an error, and this will be
wrong in the (unlikely) case that they actually had a usage error
instead; but since the most common error really is ENOMEM, I'm
not going to fix all callers. Meanwhile, new discriminating
callers can react differently depending on what failure happened.
* src/util/buf.c (virBufferSetError): Add parameter.
(virBufferGrow, virBufferVasprintf, virBufferEscapeString)
(virBufferEscapeSexpr): Adjust callers.
After you rebase to current head, this
patch omits to modify
an call instance of virBufferSetError in the newly introduced
function virBufferEscapeShell resulting into:
util/buf.c: In function 'virBufferEscapeShell':
util/buf.c:563: error: too few arguments to function 'virBufferSetError'
I looked trhough all instances of calling virBufferError and found
none, that would check against a constant, so after this patch, everything
should work as it used to. Even if it has now access to a reason of the
error.
ACK with that fixed
