Subject: [PATCH v2] sub-process: print the cmd when a capability is unsupported
Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 14:40:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170816124036.25236-1-chriscool@tuxfamily.org> (raw)

In handshake_capabilities() we use warning() when a capability
is not supported, so the exit code of the function is 0 and no
further error is shown. This is a problem because the warning
message doesn't tell us which subprocess cmd failed.

On the contrary if we cannot write a packet from this function,
we use error() and then subprocess_start() outputs:

    initialization for subprocess '<cmd>' failed

so we can know which subprocess cmd failed.

Let's improve the warning() message, so that we can know which
subprocess cmd failed.

Change since previous version:

  - Use process->argv[0] instead of adding a new parameter to
    handshake_capabilities(), thanks to Lars.
