Markus Armbruster 8277d2aa58 error: New error_prepend(), error_reportf_err()
Instead of simply propagating an error verbatim, we sometimes want to
add to its message, like this:

    frobnicate(arg, &err);
    error_setg(errp, "Can't frobnicate %s: %s",
                     arg, error_get_pretty(err));
    error_free(err);

This is suboptimal, because it loses err's hint (if any).  Moreover,
when errp is &error_abort or is subsequently propagated to
&error_abort, the abort message points to the place where we last
added to the error, not to the place where it originated.

To avoid these issues, provide means to add to an error's message in
place:

    frobnicate(arg, errp);
    error_prepend(errp, "Can't frobnicate %s: ", arg);

Likewise, reporting an error like

    frobnicate(arg, &err);
    error_report("Can't frobnicate %s: %s", arg, error_get_pretty(err));

can lose err's hint.  To avoid:

    error_reportf_err(err, "Can't frobnicate %s: ", arg);

The next commits will put these functions to use.

Markus Armbruster 543202c0dd error: Don't append a newline when printing the error hint
Since commit 50b7b00, we have error_append_hint() to conveniently
accumulate Error member @hint.  error_report_err() prints it with a
newline appended.  Consequently, users of error_append_hint() need to
know whether theirs is the final line of the hint to decide whether it
needs a newline.  Not a nice interface.

Change error_report_err() to print just the hint, and the (still few)
users of error_append_hint() to add the required newline.

Eric Blake a12a5a1a01 qapi: Simplify error cleanup in test-qmp-*
We have several tests that perform multiple sub-actions that are
expected to fail.  Asserting that an error occurred, then clearing
it up to prepare for the next action, turned into enough
boilerplate that it was sometimes forgotten (for example, a number
of tests added to test-qmp-input-visitor.c in d88f5fd leaked err).
Worse, if an error is not reset to NULL, we risk invalidating
later use of that error (passing a non-NULL err into a function
is generally a bad idea).  Encapsulate the boilerplate into a
single helper function error_free_or_abort(), and consistently
use it.

The new function is added into error.c for use everywhere,
although it is anticipated that testsuites will be the main
client.

Eric Blake 50b7b000c9 hmp: Allow for error message hints on HMP
Commits 7216ae3d and d2828429 disabled some error message hints,
all because a change to use modern error reporting meant that the
hint would be output prior to the actual error.  Fix this by making
hints a first-class member of Error.

For example, we are now back to the pleasant:

 $ qemu-system-x86_64 --nodefaults -S --vnc :0 --chardev null,id=,
 qemu-system-x86_64: --chardev null,id=,: Parameter 'id' expects an identifier
 Identifiers consist of letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting with a letter.

Markus Armbruster 1e9b65bb1b error: On abort, report where the error was created
This is particularly useful when we abort in error_propagate(),
because there the stack backtrace doesn't lead to where the error was
created.  Looks like this:

    Unexpected error in parse_block_error_action() at .../qemu/blockdev.c:322:
    qemu-system-x86_64: -drive if=none,werror=foo: 'foo' invalid write error action
    Aborted (core dumped)

Note: to get this example output, I monkey-patched drive_new() to pass
&error_abort to blockdev_init().

To keep the error handling boiler plate from growing even more, all
error_setFOO() become macros expanding into error_setFOO_internal()
with additional __FILE__, __LINE__, __func__ arguments.  Not exactly
pretty, but it works.

The macro trickery breaks down when you take the address of an
error_setFOO().  Fortunately, we do that in just one place: qemu-ga's
Windows VSS provider and requester DLL wants to call
error_setg_win32() through a function pointer "to avoid linking glib
to the DLL".  Use error_setg_win32_internal() there.  The use of the
function pointer is already wrapped in a macro, so the churn isn't
bad.

Code size increases by some 35KiB for me (0.7%).  Tolerable.  Could be
less if we passed relative rather than absolute source file names to
the compiler, or forwent reporting __func__.

Markus Armbruster e7cf59e847 qga: Clean up unnecessarily dirty casts
qga_vss_fsfreeze() casts error_set_win32() from

    void (*)(Error **, int, ErrorClass, const char *, ...)

to

    void (*)(void **, int, int, const char *, ...)

The result is later called.  Since the two types are not compatible,
the call is undefined behavior.  It works in practice anyway.

However, there's no real need for trickery here.  Clean it up as
follows:

* Declare struct Error, and fix the first parameter.

* Switch to error_setg_win32().  This gets rid of the troublesome
  ErrorClass parameter.  Requires converting error_setg_win32() from
  macro to function, but that's trivially easy, because this is the
  only user of error_set_win32().

Peter Crosthwaite d32934c84c error: Don't use error_report() for assertion msgs.
Use fprintf(stderr instead. This removes dependency of libqemuutil.a
on the monitor.

We can further justify this change, in that this code path should only
trigger under a fatal error condition. fprintf-stderr is probably the
appropriate medium as under a fatal error conidition the monitor itself
may be down and out for the count. So assertion failure messages should
go lowest common denominator - straight to stderr.

Fixes the build as reported by Kevin Wolf. Issue debugged and change
suggested by Luiz Capitulino. Issue introduced by
5d24ee70bc.

Peter Crosthwaite 5d24ee70bc error: Add error_abort
Add a special Error * that can be passed to error handling APIs to
signal that any errors are fatal and should abort QEMU. There are two
advantages to this:

- allows for brevity when wishing to assert success of Error **
  accepting APIs. No need for this pattern:
        Error * local_err = NULL;
        api_call(foo, bar, &local_err);
        assert_no_error(local_err);
  This also removes the need for _nofail variants of APIs with
  asserting call sites now reduced to 1LOC.
- SIGABRT happens from within the offending API. When a fatal error
  occurs in an API call (when the caller is asserting sucess) failure
  often means the API itself is broken. With the abort happening in the
  API call now, the stack frames into the call are available at debug
  time. In the assert_no_error scheme the abort happens after the fact.

The exact semantic is that when an error is raised, if the argument
Error ** matches &error_abort, then the abort occurs immediately. The
error messaged is reported.

For error_propagate, if the destination error is &error_abort, then
the abort happens at propagation time.

Max Reitz b276d24994 util/error: Save errno from clobbering
There may be calls to error_setg() and especially error_setg_errno()
which blindly (and until now wrongly) assume these functions not to
clobber errno (e.g., they pass errno to error_setg_errno() and return
-errno afterwards). Instead of trying to find and fix all of these
constructs, just make sure error_setg() and error_setg_errno() indeed do
not clobber errno.
