[libvirt] [PATCH] fix a ambiguous output of the command:'virsh vol-create-as'

I created a storage volume(eg: test) from a storage pool(eg:vg10) using the following command:"virsh vol-create-as --pool vg10 --name test --capacity 300M." When I re-executed the above command, the output was as the following: "error: Failed to create vol test error: Storage volume not found: storage vol 'test' already exists" I think the output "Storage volume not found" is not appropriate. Because in fact storage vol test has been found at this time. And then I think virErrorNumber should includes VIR_ERR_STORAGE_EXIST which can also be used elsewhere. So I make this patch. The result is as following: "error: Failed to create vol test error: storage volume 'test' exists already" --- include/libvirt/virterror.h | 1 + src/storage/storage_driver.c | 4 ++-- src/util/virerror.c | 6 ++++++ 3 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/libvirt/virterror.h b/include/libvirt/virterror.h index c1960c8..28ef30a 100644 --- a/include/libvirt/virterror.h +++ b/include/libvirt/virterror.h @@ -296,6 +296,7 @@ typedef enum { VIR_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED = 88, /* operation on the object/resource was denied */ VIR_ERR_DBUS_SERVICE = 89, /* error from a dbus service */ + VIR_ERR_STORAGE_EXIST = 90, /* the storage vol already exist */ } virErrorNumber; /** diff --git a/src/storage/storage_driver.c b/src/storage/storage_driver.c index 6c39284..aa5a144 100644 --- a/src/storage/storage_driver.c +++ b/src/storage/storage_driver.c @@ -1538,8 +1538,8 @@ storageVolCreateXML(virStoragePoolPtr obj, goto cleanup; if (virStorageVolDefFindByName(pool, voldef->name)) { - virReportError(VIR_ERR_NO_STORAGE_VOL, - _("storage vol '%s' already exists"), voldef->name); + virReportError(VIR_ERR_STORAGE_EXIST, + _("'%s'"), voldef->name); goto cleanup; } diff --git a/src/util/virerror.c b/src/util/virerror.c index ca25678..35bb017 100644 --- a/src/util/virerror.c +++ b/src/util/virerror.c @@ -1004,6 +1004,12 @@ virErrorMsg(virErrorNumber error, const char *info) else errmsg = _("Storage volume not found: %s"); break; + case VIR_ERR_STORAGE_EXIST: + if (info == NULL) + errmsg = _("this storage volume exists already"); + else + errmsg = _("storage volume %s exists already"); + break; case VIR_ERR_STORAGE_PROBE_FAILED: if (info == NULL) errmsg = _("Storage pool probe failed"); -- 1.7.1

What about instead of inventing new error code re-use the old VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED? Something like we have in virDomainObjListAddLocked: if (STRNEQ(vm->def->name, def->name)) { virUUIDFormat(vm->def->uuid, uuidstr); virReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED, _("domain '%s' is already defined with uuid %s"), vm->def->name, uuidstr); goto error; } Michal

I'd suggest this should be VIR_ERR_STORAGE_VOL_EXISTS.

I'd actually suggest that we should add a new error code for domains and other object types too. I think it is useful to be explicit about duplicate / clashing names/ids.

I agree with that new error code should be added. So the v2 of the patch has been post.
