You need to supply your s-o-b as well, no?

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 3/4] dump: do not dump non-existent guest memory

2017-09-13 Thread Laurent Vivier 
From: Cornelia Huck 

It does not really make sense to dump memory that is not there.

Moreover, that fixes a segmentation fault when calling dump-guest-memory
with no filter for a machine with no memory defined.

New behaviour is:

(qemu) dump-guest-memory /dev/null
dump: no guest memory to dump
(qemu) dump-guest-memory /dev/null 0 4096
dump: no guest memory to dump
