From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Avi Kivity Subject: [PATCH] Introduce QEMU_NEW() Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2011 11:51:12 +0300 Message-ID: <1311583872-362-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> Cc: kvm@vger.kernel.org To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org Return-path: Received: from mx1.redhat.com ([209.132.183.28]:47068 "EHLO mx1.redhat.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1751145Ab1GYIvS (ORCPT ); Mon, 25 Jul 2011 04:51:18 -0400 Sender: kvm-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: qemu_malloc() is type-unsafe as it returns a void pointer. Introduce QEMU_NEW() (and QEMU_NEWZ()), which return the correct type.
