Re: [Qemu-devel] [v2][PATCH 2/2] libxl: introduce gfx_passthru_kind

Subject: Re: [Qemu-devel] [v2][PATCH 2/2] libxl: introduce gfx_passthru_kind
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 15:32:52 +0800
User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.5.0

I think the _libxl_ message needs to be just "Unable to detect graphics
passthru kind". i.e. it can't/shouldn't reference anything to do with xl
config options etc (which would make no sense if libvirt was being
used).

That's not very user friendly though, so you may want to consider adding
a new specific error code for this case and returning it here, such that
xl or libvirt can then give a more comprehensible error message.

But,
    args = libxl__build_device_model_args(gc, "stubdom-dm", guest_domid,
                                          guest_config, d_state, NULL);
        |
+ return libxl__build_device_model_args_new(gc, dm,guest_domid, guest_config, state, dm_state_fd);
                |
                +  Currently we always return "NULL" inside.

    if (!args) {
        ret = ERROR_FAIL;
        goto out;
    }

So I'm not very sure how to pass this new specific error code to xl/libvirt.


So looks the whole policy should be something like this,

+            }
+            libxl_defbool_set(&b_info->u.hvm.gfx_passthru, true);
+        }

Up to here is fine.

Thanks but I guess I'd better to paste this whole patch to avoid I'm still missing something :)
