Subject: [PATCH] kvm: Ensure negative return value on kvm_init() error handling path
Date: Fri, 30 May 2014 17:26:22 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1401481582-26007-1-git-send-email-ehabkost@redhat.com> (raw)

We need to ensure ret < 0 when going through the error path, or QEMU may
try to run the half-initialized VM and crash.
