[Qemu-devel] [RFC v3 0/3] Implement a warning_report function

[Alistair Francis]

QEMU currently has a standard method to report errors with
error_repot(). This ensure a sane and standard format when printing
errors. This series is attempting to extend this functionality for
warnings and information as well.

At the moment only one error is being converted, I wanted to get the
implementation nailed down a little bit before I started converting
others.

This patch renames error_print_loc() function to be more clear, but I
didn't bother renaming the others. It seems silly to change
error_printf() to error_warning_printf() and printf is already taken so
I just left it as is.

I also didn't change the current error output as that would probably
break backwards compatibilty for anyone who is parsing logs.

RFCv3:
 - Use more detailed enum and function names
 - Add wrapper functions for the info and warning reporting
RFCv2:
 - Use enums for ERROR, WARN and INFO with a generic report() function
   instead of adding new functions

Alistair Francis (3):
  util/qemu-error: Rename error_print_loc() to be more generic
  qemu-error: Implement a more generic error reporting
  char-socket: Report TCP socket waiting as information
