Subject: [PATCH 2/2] qom: Improve error message in module_object_class_by_name()
Date: Tue, 20 Jul 2021 19:31:20 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210720223120.21711-3-jziviani@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210720223120.21711-1-jziviani@suse.de>

module_object_class_by_name() calls module_load_qom_one if the object
is provided by a dynamically linked library. Such library might not be
available at this moment - for instance, it can be a package not yet
installed. Thus, instead of assert error messages, this patch outputs
more friendly messages.

Current error messages:
$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -accel tcg -kernel /boot/vmlinuz
...
ERROR:../accel/accel-softmmu.c:82:accel_init_ops_interfaces: assertion failed: (ops != NULL)
Bail out! ERROR:../accel/accel-softmmu.c:82:accel_init_ops_interfaces: assertion failed: (ops != NULL)
[1]    31964 IOT instruction (core dumped)  ./qemu-system-x86_64 ...

New error message:
$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -accel tcg -kernel /boot/vmlinuz
accel-tcg-x86_64 module is missing, install the package or config the library path correctly.

Or with other modules, when possible:
$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -accel kvm -kernel /boot/vmlinuz -vga qxl                                                                     ✹
hw-display-qxl module is missing, install the package or config the library path correctly.
