Subject: [PATCH] libxl/x86: check return value of SHADOW_OP_SET_ALLOCATION domctl
Date: Mon, 28 Jun 2021 13:47:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5d2bb2cf-8c0c-7300-c895-75bef0e50817@suse.com> (raw)

The hypervisor may not have enough memory to satisfy the request.

Requested-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>
Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>
---
Especially if the request was mostly fulfilled, guests may have done
fine despite the failure, so there is a risk of perceived regressions
here. But not checking the error at all was certainly wrong.
