Per cpu_model_from_type() docstring (added in commit 445946f4dd):
* Returns: CPU model name or NULL if the CPU class doesn't exist
We must check the return value in order to avoid surprises, i.e.:
$ qemu-system-arm -machine virt -cpu cortex-a9
qemu-system-arm: Invalid CPU model: cortex-a9
The valid models are: cortex-a7, cortex-a15, (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), max
Add assertions when the call can not fail (because the CPU type
must be registered).
Fixes: 5422d2a8fa ("machine: Print CPU model name instead of CPU type")

Shall we assert(model) for this case, to be consistent with other cases? :)

Otherwise, the separator here need to be adjusted because it's uncertain that
mc->valid_cpu_types[i+1] ... mc->valid_cpu_types[END] are valid.

No, this is the "(null)" cases displayed in the example.
IOW, mc->valid_cpu_types[] contains a CPU type which isn't registered,
so we just skip it.

Here we know mc->valid_cpu_types[i] is *not* NULL, but
mc->valid_cpu_types[i + 1] might be (signaling the end
of the array).
This seems correct to me, but I might be missing something.

I thought this should be fixed by correcting mc->valid_cpu_types[] in
hw/arm/virt.c. It means the consistent mc->valid_cpu_types[] needs to
be provided by the specific board. Otherwise, the logic is incorrect from
the code level at least. For example, "cortex-a9" isn't available to
qemu-system-arm but it has been wrongly declared as supported in hw/arm/virt.c
I've posted one patch against it:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-arm/2024-01/msg00531.html

When the class for mc->valid_cpu_types[i + 1] isn't registered, we will
skip the entry. it's possible that the class of mc->valid_cpu_types[i + 2]
isn't registered either. mc->valid_cpu_types[i + 3] to mc->valid_cpu_types[END - 1]
have the similar situations.
In order to correct the separator, we need to invalidate the return value
from cpu_model_from_type(mc->valid_cpu_types[i + 1]) ... cpu_model_from_type(mc->valid_cpu_types[END - 1]).
Too much complex for that and it's another reason why I suggested assert(model) as above

Doh I missed one space before the '$' character when pasting.
