The vmx file parsing code was reporting errors when parsing floppy.fileName
entries if the filename didn't end in .flp. There is no such restriction in
ESX; even using the GUI to configure floppy filenames you can specify any
arbitrary file with any extension.
Fix by changing the vmx parsing code so that it uses the floppy.fileType
value to determine whether floppy.fileName refers to a block device or a
regular file.

Your mailer corrupted your patch. Would you mind resending it via 'git
send-email', or at a bare minimum as an attachment rather than inline,
so that maintainers can just 'git am' it?

It's simpler to just use a pointer variable in boolean context instead
of explicit comparison against NULL (this isn't Java). As in:
if (fileType && STRCASEEQ(fileType, "device")) {
At any rate, your change looks reasonable to me; I wouldn't mind
applying it if you can resend to touch up those issues.

FWIW, I've been fixing a number of these poor assumptions lately.
There's no limitation that there must be a fileName specified either
and the way the patch is formulated it will treat it as a fatal error
that there is a floppy drive defined with no file name for the floppy
image.

Eric: No problem, I'll resubmit with git (sorry about that, it's been long
enough since my last submit that I forgot about that), but I'll fix the
issue that Doug pointed out first. As for the pointer comparison to NULL,
I'm in complete agreement, but that particular source file uses the != NULL
idiom everywhere. I'd be happy to remove it everywhere, but that should be
done as a separate submit, I would think?
Thanks, 2nd try soon. :)

Indeed, if you're going to clean up the entire file, do it as a separate
commit.
Thanks, 2nd try soon. :)
Looking forward to it.
Also, we tend to avoid top-posting on this list.
