[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] isa-fdc: assert replaced by proper error exit

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] isa-fdc: assert replaced by proper error exit

[Eduardo Otubo]

When not available, isa-fdc falls into assert instead of proper error
exit. This patch fixes this behavior.

Maybe add the reproducer to the commit message:

 qemu-system-ppc64 -S -machine powernv -device isa-fdc

When what exactly isn't available?

The actual patch makes me suspect it's "when ISA DMA isn't available".

I was going to ask if we needn't take care of undoing the portio or IRQ
registration, but it turns out that there is not one single caller of
portio_list_destroy in all of QEMU...

Paolo admitted as much in e3fb0ade83420a86464ee50c71f2daf5641cab10 when
he updated the destroy function :)

It looks like the way we assign IRQs to ISA devices is kind of simple
and not trivial to undo correctly, so instead of barking up that tree,
why don't we hoist the isa_get_dma call up and fail before we try to
initialize portio or IRQs?
