[PULL 02/13] tcg: Fix error reporting on mprotect() failure in tcg_region_init()
Posted by Markus Armbruster 1 month, 2 weeks ago
tcg_region_init() calls one of qemu_mprotect_rwx(),
qemu_mprotect_rw(), and mprotect(), then reports failure with
error_setg_errno(&error_fatal, errno, ...).

The use of &error_fatal is undesirable.  qapi/error.h advises:

 * Please don't error_setg(&error_fatal, ...), use error_report() and
 * exit(), because that's more obvious.

The use of errno is wrong.  qemu_mprotect_rwx() and qemu_mprotect_rw()
wrap around qemu_mprotect__osdep().  qemu_mprotect__osdep() calls
mprotect() on POSIX, VirtualProtect() on Windows, and reports failure
with error_report().  VirtualProtect() doesn't set errno.  mprotect()
does, but error_report() may clobber it.

Fix tcg_region_init() to report errors only when it calls mprotect(),
and rely on qemu_mprotect_rwx()'s and qemu_mprotect_rw()'s error
reporting otherwise.  Use error_report(), not error_setg().

Fixes: 22c6a9938f75 (tcg: Merge buffer protection and guard page protection)
Fixes: 6bc144237a85 (tcg: Use Error with alloc_code_gen_buffer)
