Wrong. Attempting to set machine property nvdimm-persistence to a bad value instantly kills the VM: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -S -display none -qmp stdio {"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 50, "minor": 0, "major": 3}, "pa= ckage": "v3.0.0-837-gc5e4e49258"}, "capabilities": []}} {"execute": "qmp_capabilities"} {"return": {}} {"execute": "qom-set", "arguments": {"path": "/machine", "property": "n= vdimm-persistence", "value": "instadeath"}} -machine nvdimm-persistence=3Dinstadeath: unsupported option $ echo $? 1 Broken when commit 11c39b5cd96 (v3.0.0) replaced error_propagate(); return by error_report(); exit() instead of error_setg(); return.
