[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 for-4.0 10/11] qemu_thread: supplement error handling for vnc_start_worker_thread

[Fei Li]

From: Fei Li <f...@suse.com>

Supplement the error handling for vnc_thread_worker_thread: add
an Error parameter for it to propagate the error to its caller to
handle in case it fails, and make it return a Boolean to indicate
whether it succeeds.
