Since patch submitters tend to submit code that works for the success case, I like to test a few failure cases before anything else. Gotcha: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc,pflash0=xxx qemu-system-x86_64: Property 'cfi.pflash01.drive' can't find value 'xxx' The error message is misleading. This is not a "must not commit" issue. Fixing a regression in time for the release at the price of a bad error message is still a win. The bad error message needs fixing all the same, just not necessarily before the release. Since mere thinking doesn't rock the release boat: any ideas on how this could be fixed?
