hi everyone i have tried to apply the patch
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2009-01/msg01213.html  to qemu
but when i do patch -p1<foo.patch  i get error as

Hunk #1 FAILED at 1454.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file monitor.c.rej
patching file savevm.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1114.
Hunk #2 FAILED at 1190.
2 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file savevm.c.rej
patching file sysemu.h
Hunk #1 FAILED at 47.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file sysemu.h.rej

i know that this part of patch was not applied to qemu files and stored in
.rej files but now what should i do
should i apply the changed part of the code direct to the files or any
solution,thanks

Since the patch is from 2009 it's not surprising there are conflicts.
QEMU has changed since then and you'll need to manually resolve
conflicts.

I don't like .rej files.  Instead I use the patch --merge flag to show
the two conflicting hunks and perform the resolution using a text
editor.

Reset your world and then try using patch with the --merge flag.  Open
the conflicting files in your editor and search for '<<<'.
