Subject: [PATCH] qapi: Improve input_type_enum()'s error message
Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2021 15:15:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211011131558.3273255-1-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
The error message claims the parameter is invalid:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -object qom-type=nonexistent
qemu-system-x86_64: -object qom-type=nonexistent: Invalid parameter 'nonexistent'
What's wrong is actually the *value* 'nonexistent'. Improve the
message to
qemu-system-x86_64: -object qom-type=nonexistent: Parameter 'qom-type' does not accept value 'nonexistent'
Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
