It could be something like: if (features && cpu_x86_parse_featurestr(def, features) < 0) { ... } Both options are reasonable to me. > > > goto error; > > } > > > > cpudef_2_x86_cpu(cpu, def, &error); > > > > if (error) { > > - fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", error_get_pretty(error)); > > + error_propagate(errp, error); > Why do it here but not above?

I'm not sure I want to use that coding style. Expecting every function to abort in the beginning if Error is set sounds fragile, to me. I would even expect the maintainers to complain if I wrote the code that way (as I never saw that style being used in any code except the visitors). The visitors seem to be different because they are called from automatically-generated QAPI code, that can't know if errors in a give "visit" should abort the rest of the process, or not. > > > if (error) { > > - error_free(error); > > - object_delete(OBJECT(cpu)); > > - return NULL; > > + goto error; > > } > > return cpu; > > + > > +error: > > + if (cpu) { > > + object_delete(OBJECT(cpu)); > > + } > > + error_report("%s", error_get_pretty(error)); > > + error_free(error); > > + return NULL; > > } > > > > #if !defined(CONFIG_USER_ONLY) > > -- > > 1.7.11.7 > > > > > -- > Regards, > Igor -- Eduardo
