2012-02-24Revert "qemu-char: Print strerror message on failure" and depsMarkus Armbruster1-4/+3
The commit's purpose is laudable: The only way for chardev drivers to communicate an error was to return a NULL pointer, which resulted in an error message that said _that_ something went wrong, but not _why_. It attempts to achieve it by changing the interface to return 0/-errno and update qemu_chr_open_opts() to use strerror() to display a more helpful error message. Unfortunately, it has serious flaws: 1. Backends "socket" and "udp" return bogus error codes, because qemu_chr_open_socket() and qemu_chr_open_udp() assume that unix_listen_opts(), unix_connect_opts(), inet_listen_opts(), inet_connect_opts() and inet_dgram_opts() fail with errno set appropriately. That assumption is wrong, and the commit turns unspecific error messages into misleading error messages. For instance: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx inet_connect: host and/or port not specified chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: No such file or directory ENOENT is what happens to be in my errno when the backend returns -errno. Let's put ERANGE there just for giggles: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx -drive if=none,iops=99999999999999999999 inet_connect: host and/or port not specified chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: Numerical result out of range Worse: when errno happens to be zero, return -errno erroneously signals success, and qemu_chr_new_from_opts() dies dereferencing uninitialized chr. I observe this with "-serial unix:". 2. All qemu_chr_open_opts() knows about the error is an errno error code. That's simply not enough for a decent message. For instance, when inet_dgram() can't resolve the parameter host, which errno code should it use? What if it can't resolve parameter localaddr? Clue: many backends already report errors in their open methods. Let's revert the flawed commit along with its dependencies, and fix up the silent error paths instead. This reverts commit 6e1db57b2ac9025c2443c665a0d9e78748637b26. Conflicts: console.c hw/baum.c qemu-char.c This reverts commit aad04cd024f0c59f0b96f032cde2e24eb3abba6d. The parts of commit db418a0a "Add stdio char device on windows" that depend on the reverted change fixed up.

2011-03-21change all other clock references to use nanosecond resolution accessorsPaolo Bonzini1-2/+2
This was done with: sed -i 's/qemu_get_clock\>/qemu_get_clock_ns/' \ $(git grep -l 'qemu_get_clock\>' ) sed -i 's/qemu_new_timer\>/qemu_new_timer_ns/' \ $(git grep -l 'qemu_new_timer\>' ) after checking that get_clock and new_timer never occur twice on the same line. There were no missed occurrences; however, even if there had been, they would have been caught by the compiler. There was exactly one false positive in qemu_run_timers: - current_time = qemu_get_clock (clock); + current_time = qemu_get_clock_ns (clock); which is of course not in this patch.

2009-06-13Fix SDL include path.Stefan Weil1-1/+1
SDL header files can be included in two different ways: * like this: #include <SDL/SDL.h> * like this: #include <SDL.h> The 1st alternative is simple and works in many cases. The 2nd alternative needs sdl-config to get the correct compiler flags. It is the recommended way to write SDL includes and standard for QEMU. The patch fixes two non-standard SDL includes.
