Subject: [PATCH 01/17] hw/misc/ivshmem: Fix missing ERRP_GUARD() for error_prepend()
Date: Thu, 29 Feb 2024 22:38:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240229143914.1977550-2-zhao1.liu@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240229143914.1977550-1-zhao1.liu@linux.intel.com>

From: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@intel.com>

As the comment in qapi/error, passing @errp to error_prepend() requires
ERRP_GUARD():

* = Why, when and how to use ERRP_GUARD() =
*
* Without ERRP_GUARD(), use of the @errp parameter is restricted:
...
* - It should not be passed to error_prepend(), error_vprepend() or
*   error_append_hint(), because that doesn't work with &error_fatal.
* ERRP_GUARD() lifts these restrictions.
*
* To use ERRP_GUARD(), add it right at the beginning of the function.
* @errp can then be used without worrying about the argument being
* NULL or &error_fatal.

ERRP_GUARD() could avoid the case when @errp is the pointer of
error_fatal, the user can't see this additional information, because
exit() happens in error_setg earlier than information is added [1].

The ivshmem_common_realize() passes @errp to error_prepend(), and as a
DeviceClass.realize method, its @errp is so widely sourced that it is
necessary to protect it with ERRP_GUARD().

To avoid the issue like [1] said, add missing ERRP_GUARD() at the
beginning of this function.

[1]: Issue description in the commit message of commit ae7c80a7bd73
     ("error: New macro ERRP_GUARD()").
