From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilb...@redhat.com> At the moment if you use a VMSTATE_*_EQUAL macro and the value doesn't match you just get an error about the section that failed
e.g. qemu-system-ppc64: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device 'cpu' qemu-system-ppc64: load of migration failed: Invalid argument with this pair you get the field and the mismatched values. e.g. qemu-system-ppc64: 8000600FE1FF7AE1 != 8000600FE1FF3A21 qemu-system-ppc64: Failed to load cpu:env.insns_flags qemu-system-ppc64: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device 'cpu' qemu-system-ppc64: load of migration failed: Invalid argument which is much more likely to point you at the culprit. (Broken out from a larger vmstatification series, the only change since then is the values are printed in hex except for the le case).
