[PATCH] target/i386/sev: Fix a segfault in sev_kvm_init
Posted by Srikanth Aithal 2 years, 1 month ago 
Propogate error code using errp in sev_kvm_init.

Before fix:
qemu-system-x86_64: sev_kvm_init: guest policy requires SEV-ES,
but host SEV-ES support unavailable
27747 Segmentation fault      (core dumped)

After fix:
qemu-system-x86_64: sev_kvm_init: guest policy requires SEV-ES,
but host SEV-ES support unavailable
qemu-system-x86_64: failed to initialize kvm: Operation not permitted

While at it, also fix two more locations.
