[PATCH] migration: Fix parse_ramblock() on overwritten retvals
Posted by Peter Xu 1 year, 1 month ago
It's possible that some errors can be overwritten with success retval later
on, and then ignored.  Always capture all errors and report.

Reported by Coverity 1522861, but actually I spot one more in the same
function.

Fixes: CID 1522861

The other one is CID 1522862, I think.

We usually don't bother asserting for this kind of "function
reports errors two ways" code.

Juan, please feel free to drop the assert() if it's in the queue.

After this one lands, I'll send a patch to remove qemu_ram_resize retval
and only rely on Error*.

Thanks,

I hate that assert.  If you really want that:


         if (ret < 0) {
            error_report_err(local_err);
            assert(ret < 0);
            return ret;
         }

Rest of the patch looks ok.

Later, Juan.

Please have a look at qemu_ram_resize().  It only contains two error paths.

This will be similar to above, if qemu_ram_resize() return <0 with
err==NULL, it'll crash in error_report_err() too.. at error_get_pretty().

>             assert(ret < 0);

This is not necessary.. if in this "if" section.  So we can drop it
(instead of assert it).

I tend to prefer just merging this.. but if you strongly prefer the other
way, I can drop the assert().  But then I'll prefer "return -EINVAL" rather
than "return ret", if you're fine with it.
