From 1e9b65bb1bad51735cab6c861c29b592dccabf0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Armbruster Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2015 19:21:59 +0200 Subject: error: On abort, report where the error was created This is particularly useful when we abort in error_propagate(), because there the stack backtrace doesn't lead to where the error was created. Looks like this: Unexpected error in parse_block_error_action() at .../qemu/blockdev.c:322: qemu-system-x86_64: -drive if=none,werror=foo: 'foo' invalid write error action Aborted (core dumped) Note: to get this example output, I monkey-patched drive_new() to pass &error_abort to blockdev_init(). To keep the error handling boiler plate from growing even more, all error_setFOO() become macros expanding into error_setFOO_internal() with additional __FILE__, __LINE__, __func__ arguments. Not exactly pretty, but it works. The macro trickery breaks down when you take the address of an error_setFOO(). Fortunately, we do that in just one place: qemu-ga's Windows VSS provider and requester DLL wants to call error_setg_win32() through a function pointer "to avoid linking glib to the DLL". Use error_setg_win32_internal() there. The use of the function pointer is already wrapped in a macro, so the churn isn't bad. Code size increases by some 35KiB for me (0.7%). Tolerable. Could be less if we passed relative rather than absolute source file names to the compiler, or forwent reporting __func__.
