[PATCH for 6.2?] Revert "vga: don't abort when adding a duplicate isa-vga device"
Posted by Alex Bennée 2 years, 4 months ago
This reverts commit 7852a77f598635a67a222b6c1463c8b46098aed2.

The check is bogus as it ends up finding itself and falling over.

Don't you simply need to invert the check? You should get NULL back if
there is another device already...

Yes that's correct - the existing check is simply missing a ! at the front. For an 
existing example take a look at the the fw_cfg device:

https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/blob/master/hw/nvram/fw_cfg.c#L1228
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/blob/master/hw/nvram/fw_cfg.c#L1125

Unfortunately it seems that I also missed this when I added my R-B tag :(


ATB,

Mark.

Although that doesn't seem to fix the original problem:
