Subject: [PATCH 2/5] hw/nvram/xlnx-bbram: More idiomatic and simpler error reporting
Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2025 14:08:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251119130855.105479-3-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251119130855.105479-1-armbru@redhat.com>
bbram_bdrv_error() interpolates a "detail" string into a template with
error_setg_errno(), then reports the result with error_report().
Produces error messages with an unwanted '.':
BLK-NAME: BBRAM backstore DETAIL failed.: STERROR
Replace both calls of bbram_bdrv_error() by straightforward
error_report(), and drop the function. This is less code, easier to
read, and the error message is more greppable.
Also delete the unwanted '.'.
