[Qemu-devel] Coding style for errors

[Lluís Vilanova]

Hi,

I was wondering what is the proper way (or ways, depending on the subsystem) of
reporting and signalling errors in QEMU. The coding style file does not seem to
mention it, and the code uses all kinds of forms for that:

* printf + exit(1)
* fprintf(stderr) + exit(1)
* error_report + exit(1)
* cpu_abort
* Some other I probably forgot

So, is there any agreement on what should be used? If so, could that please be
added to CODING_STYLE?


Thanks,
  Lluis
