v10: (based-on "[PATCH 0/3] Minor error handling cleanups" including my 4/3 in it)
02: Change some comments.
    Do not chain check1 and check2 rules to rule1 to cover move
    unusual cases to warn about.
    Add positions to check1 rule.
    Move check1 and check2 above rule1, otherwise our ___ hack will break check2
    rule.
03: add hunk, due to rebasing and
09: rebased. Change is trivial, I keep r-b.


v10 is available at
 https://src.openvz.org/scm/~vsementsov/qemu.git #tag up-auto-local-err-partI-v10
v9 is available at
 https://src.openvz.org/scm/~vsementsov/qemu.git #tag up-auto-local-err-partI-v9


In these series, there is no commit-per-subsystem script, each generated
commit is generated in separate.

Still, generating commands are very similar, and looks like

    sed -n '/^<Subsystem name>$/,/^$/{s/^F: //p}' MAINTAINERS | \
    xargs git ls-files | grep '\.[hc]$' | \
    xargs spatch \
        --sp-file scripts/coccinelle/auto-propagated-errp.cocci \
        --macro-file scripts/cocci-macro-file.h \
        --in-place --no-show-diff --max-width 80

Note, that in each generated commit, generation command is the only
text, indented by 8 spaces in 'git log -1' output, so, to regenerate all
commits (for example, after rebase, or change in coccinelle script), you
may use the following command:

git rebase -x "sh -c \"git show --pretty= --name-only | xargs git checkout HEAD^ -- ; git reset; git log -1 | grep '^        ' | sh\"" HEAD~7

Which will start automated interactive rebase for generated patches,
which will stop if generated patch changed
(you may do git commit --amend to apply updated generated changes).

Note:
  git show --pretty= --name-only   - lists files, changed in HEAD
  git log -1 | grep '^        ' | sh   - rerun generation command of HEAD


Check for compilation of changed .c files
git rebase -x "sh -c \"git show --pretty= --name-only | sed -n 's/\.c$/.o/p' | xargs make -j9\"" HEAD~7

Introduce a new ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE macro, to be used at start of
functions with an errp OUT parameter.

It has three goals:

1. Fix issue with error_fatal and error_prepend/error_append_hint: user
can't see this additional information, because exit() happens in
error_setg earlier than information is added. [Reported by Greg Kurz]

2. Fix issue with error_abort and error_propagate: when we wrap
error_abort by local_err+error_propagate, the resulting coredump will
refer to error_propagate and not to the place where error happened.
(the macro itself doesn't fix the issue, but it allows us to [3.] drop
the local_err+error_propagate pattern, which will definitely fix the
issue) [Reported by Kevin Wolf]

3. Drop local_err+error_propagate pattern, which is used to workaround
void functions with errp parameter, when caller wants to know resulting
status. (Note: actually these functions could be merely updated to
return int error code).

To achieve these goals, later patches will add invocations
of this macro at the start of functions with either use
error_prepend/error_append_hint (solving 1) or which use
local_err+error_propagate to check errors, switching those
functions to use *errp instead (solving 2 and 3).

If we want to add some info to errp (by error_prepend() or
error_append_hint()), we must use the ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE macro.
Otherwise, this info will not be added when errp == &error_fatal
(the program will exit prior to the error_append_hint() or
error_prepend() call).  Fix such cases.

If we want to check error after errp-function call, we need to
introduce local_err and then propagate it to errp. Instead, use
ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE macro, benefits are:
1. No need of explicit error_propagate call
2. No need of explicit local_err variable: use errp directly
3. ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE leaves errp as is if it's not NULL or
   &error_fatal, this means that we don't break error_abort
   (we'll abort on error_set, not on error_propagate)

I have more of these coming and I'd really like to use ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE.

It seems we have a consensus on the macro itself but this series is gated
by the conversion of the existing code base.

What about merging this patch separately so that people can start using
it at least ?

Please give me a few more days to finish the work I feel should go in
before the conversion.  With any luck, Vladimir can then rebase /
recreate the conversion easily, and you can finally use the macro for
your own work.

Just posted "[PATCH 00/46] Less clumsy error checking".  The sheer size
of the thing and the length of its dependency chain explains why it took
me so long.  I feel bad about delaying you all the same.  Apologies!

I hope we can converge quickly enough to get Vladimir's work on top
ready in time for the soft freeze.

No problem. This series of yours is impressive. Putting an end to the
highjacking of the Error ** argument is really a beneficial move.

I'll find some cycles for reviewing.
