[libvirt] [PATCH] Report error when parsing character device target type
No useful error was being reported when an invalid character device target type is specified in the domainXML. E.g. ... <console type="pty"> <source path="/dev/pts/2"/> <target type="kvm" port="0"/> </console> ... resulted in error: Failed to define domain from x.xml error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown With this small patch, the error is more helpful error: Failed to define domain from x.xml error: XML error: unknown target type 'kvm' specified for character device --- src/conf/domain_conf.c | 3 +++ 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/conf/domain_conf.c b/src/conf/domain_conf.c index 976e42b..54ac1db 100644 --- a/src/conf/domain_conf.c +++ b/src/conf/domain_conf.c @@ -4895,6 +4895,9 @@ virDomainChrDefParseTargetXML(virCapsPtr caps, if ((def->targetType = virDomainChrTargetTypeFromString(caps, vmdef, def->deviceType, targetType)) < 0) { + virDomainReportError(VIR_ERR_XML_ERROR, + _("unknown target type '%s' specified for character device"), + targetType); goto error; } -- 1.7.8.3
