Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <ebl...@redhat.com> I did a quick glance through 'git grep -p -A2 error_set' for any more culprits beyond the one you just fixed in block.c, and didn't spot any obvious ones; but there were enough 'goto error' statements where I didn't check if the code at the error label was depending on sane errno value; and it is definitely easier for code maintenance if you don't have to think about whether logging an error will clobber the error. (Not to mention I've also patched libvirt to have the same paradigm of logging functions guaranteeing no modification to errno). -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
