Unusual indentation and spurious ():

How many of these error_report() should be using Error **errp logistics
instead?

Pre-existing indentation problem, but you could fix it here (or if you
introduced it earlier in the series, fix it there)

I put patches 1-14 and 17 on my tree, branch vhost:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/mst/qemu.git vhost
please rebase 15,16 and 18 on top, addressing comments that were sent
since, and post just these, then I'll be able to merge the
feature.
Thanks!

for 15 and 16 - I'll fix the comments. For 18, I don't see any, but it is a
test and it depends on NUMA patches. So we'll have to fix it eventually.

The feature depends on memory sharing. We're currently using this line to
enable it:
-object memory-file,id=mem,size=512M,mem-path=/hugetlbfs,share=on \
-numa node,memdev=mem \
This does not seem to work in your tree. Please advice what equivalent
should be used?

OK - that's what we're doing. There are two questions though:
- should we post with separate numbering - 15,16,18 will become 1/3, 2/3,
3/3? Or do you prefer to preserve the original numbering?
- We can not test it. Probably we get something wrong, but vhost-user-v10
was rebased on Hu Tao's NUMA v3.2 series. And it uses
this on the command line to enalbe mmaped memory share flag (on HUGETLBFS):
-object memory-file,id=mem,size=512M,mem-path=/hugetlbfs,share=on \
-numa node,memdev=mem \
Now, this does not work, which will break the qtest (patch 18). Maybe we
misled you by saying it is rebased on memdev instead of naming it NUMA
patchseries.

What woudl be the right approach here, is leaving it 84 colums acceptable:
static CharDriverState *net_vhost_parse_chardev(const
NetdevVhostUserOptions *opts)
Or split it like this:
static CharDriverState *net_vhost_parse_chardev(const NetdevVhostUserOptions
*opts)

This init fucntion is part of 'net_client_init_fun[]" which does not
provide 'Error **errp' argument. The way I see it, there is no way to
propagate the 'errp' up. Or am I getting this wrong?

checkpatch.pl is for guidance; it is okay to have a patch that doesn't
pass. At any rate, I won't reject a patch for long lines, or for unusual
style, where it is obvious that there is no way to fit things into 80
columns while still complying with all other style issues.

It was more of a 'food for thought' question - we may eventually want to
enhance the code base to be able to propagate errp up; but since that is
a more invasive patch, and your series isn't making the situation worse,
it does not necessarily mean you have to do that additional work. On
the other hand, if the conversion is worth doing, then getting it done
sooner makes it easier to take advantage of the improved error handling
for other new code in the same area.

Okay, I see. Sometimes, I like to put in a comment /* cast away const
*/ to make it obvious why I'm doing things like that. It also serves as
a spur to investigate a couple of things: 1) should the callback
signature should have allowed a const in the first place, rather than
making callers have to cast away const, 2) if the callback can modify
the pointer but I'm casting away const, am I going to cause data
corruption and/or a crash
