Hi

This is a cleanup series to change functions in hw/vfio/ to return bool 
when the error is passed through errp parameter, also some cleanup
with g_autofree.

See discussion at https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2024-04/msg04782.html

This series processed below files:
hw/vfio/container.c
hw/vfio/iommufd.c
hw/vfio/cpr.c
backends/iommufd.c

So above files are clean now, there are still other files need processing
in hw/vfio.

Test done on x86 platform:
vfio device hotplug/unplug with different backend
reboot

Thanks
Zhenzhong

Changelog:
v2:
- split out g_autofree code as a patch (Cédric)
- add processing for more files

Hi All,

When I looked into more functions passing 'Error **',
I see many are in "int testfunc(..., Error **errp)" format. I was a bit confused.

The qapi/error.h suggests:

* - Whenever practical, also return a value that indicates success /
 *   failure.  This can make the error checking more concise, and can
 *   avoid useless error object creation and destruction.  Note that
 *   we still have many functions returning void.  We recommend
 *   • bool-valued functions return true on success / false on failure,
 *   • pointer-valued functions return non-null / null pointer, and
 *   • integer-valued functions return non-negative / negative.

There are some functions like:

int testfunc(..., Error **errp)
{
    If (succeed) {
        return 0;
    } else {
        return -EINVAL;
    }
}

Does testfunc() follow 'integer-valued functions' as above or it should be changed to 'bool-valued functions'?

Is there a clear rule in which case to change 'int testfunc(... Error **errp)' to ' bool testfunc(... Error **errp)'?

Thanks
Zhenzhong

Applied to vfio-next.

Thanks,
