[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] qemu-img: Improve error messages


From: Fam Zheng
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] qemu-img: Improve error messages
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2014 10:04:21 +0800

Previously, when there is a user error in argv parsing, qemu-img prints
help text and exits.

Add an error_exit function to print a helpful error message and a hint
to run 'qemu-img --help' for more information.

As a bonus, "qemu-img <cmd> --help" now has a more reasonable exit code
0.

In the future the help text should be split by sub command, and only
print the information for the specified command.

v2: Address Eric's comments on QEMU_NORETURN, article and
    EXIT_{SUCCEESS,FAILURE}.
