Subject: [PATCH 3/4] qtest: Improve error messages when property can not be set right now
Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2022 17:38:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221012153801.2604340-4-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221012153801.2604340-1-armbru@redhat.com>
When you try to set qtest property "log" while the qtest object is
active, the error message blames "insufficient permission":
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -S -display none -nodefaults -monitor stdio -chardev socket,id=chrqt0,path=qtest.socket,server=on,wait=off -object qtest,id=qt0,chardev=chrqt0,log=/dev/null
QEMU 7.1.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) qom-set /objects/qt0 log qtest.log
Error: Insufficient permission to perform this operation
This implies it could work with "sufficient permission". It can't.
Change the error message to:
Error: Property 'log' can not be set now
Same for property "chardev".
