Even just qemu segfaults, right here: (gdb) bt #0 qemu_opt_get (opts=0x0, name=0x77f7478f kernel) at /home/kraxel/projects/qemu/qemu-option.c:545 #1 0x77deb1b0 in main (argc=value optimized out, argv=value optimized out, envp=value optimized out) at /home/kraxel/projects/qemu/vl.c:3250 cheers, Gerd

Also device_add nonexistent-device in the monitor gives a rather unhelpful message: Parameter 'driver' expects device type -device foo is really shorthand for -device driver=foo. And deep down in the bowels of qdev, where the error get reported, the value of parameter driver gets treated like any other parameter's value: if it's not within ACCEPTABLE-SET, complain Parameter 'NAME' expected ACCEPTABLE-SET. Overuse of syntactic sugar considered harmful.

Yeah, I looked at this code, perhaps 'INPUT' is not a valid 'ACCEPTABLE-SET' would be more helpful. In my message I was talking about the monitor command though. Something like you typoed in the device name should be reported by the human readable monitor. Cheers
