Most of the block drivers are not using the Error** argument to bdrv_open,
and instead just printing errors to stderr.  This series improves that,
and as a consequence it also avoids abuse of errno numbers.

The only hurdle (caught by qemu-iotests, too) is VMDK, where we currently
parse a file first as image, and second as a descriptor.  This makes
it hard to pick a good error message, because you do not know which
attempt gave the most reasonable error message.  For this reason patches
15-17 modify this approach and push up the detection of vmdk image file
magic numbers.

Apart from this, and from a segfault fixed by patch 7, the series consists
of mostly trivial patches.

Paolo

        v2->v3:
                Rebase for new qemu-nbd test (Jeff, 01-02/20)
                Fix memory leak (Stefan, 06/20)
                Use local_err for bdrv_file_open (Kevin, 09-11-12/20)

Paolo Bonzini (20):
  nbd: produce a better error if neither host nor port is passed
  nbd: correctly propagate errors
  nbd: inline tcp_socket_incoming_spec into sole caller
  nbd: move socket wrappers to qemu-nbd
  iscsi: fix indentation
  iscsi: correctly propagate errors in iscsi_open
  gluster: default scheme to gluster:// and host to localhost.
  gluster: correctly propagate errors
  cow: correctly propagate errors
  curl: correctly propagate errors
  qcow: correctly propagate errors
  qed: correctly propagate errors
  vhdx: correctly propagate errors
  vvfat: correctly propagate errors
  vmdk: extract vmdk_read_desc
  vmdk: push vmdk_read_desc up to caller
  vmdk: do not try opening a file as both image and descriptor
  vmdk: correctly propagate errors
  block: do not abuse EMEDIUMTYPE
  vdi: say why an image is bad
