[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1349722] [NEW] qemu-io: Exit code is always zero

[Maria Kustova]

Public bug reported:

The qemu-io always returns zero on exit independently on errors occurred
during the command execution.

Example,

$ qemu-io -c 'write 128 234' /tmp/run1/test-1/test.img

offset 128 is not sector aligned

$ echo $?
0

For single commands it makes sense to return the command success as the
exit code.

When qemu-io is used interactively or with multiple -c options we need a
error handling policy.

For this reason it is not totally trivial to implement.

[Thomas Huth]

Looking through old bug tickets... is this still an issue with the
latest version of QEMU? Or could we close this ticket nowadays?
