Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 14/17] vmstate: Move VMS_MUST_EXIST check
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 16:43:29 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260324194333.30004-15-farosas@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260324194333.30004-1-farosas@suse.de>

Move the VMS_MUST_EXIST check into the vmstate_field_exists() function
and make it return bool + errp. This deduplicates a bit of code
between save and load.

XXX: why do we assert on save?
