'virReportOOMError' is nowadays mostly useless since an OOM error will trigger yet another allocation failure in the logger when attempting to log the error. Additionally it was also used in few places which can fail with other failures than OOM. To prevent both errorneous usage types, let's remove it completely. In the rare case we'd want to allocate a massive buffer and want to fail gracefully we still can use virReportError with VIR_ERR_NO_MEMORY. The series starts by some cleanup, then removes error handling from places where it's now dead code as we'll abort before the reporting, then converts some real OOM scenarios to abort() directly and lastly fixes the error message for cases where other errors are possible and lastly removes virReportOOMError. Pipelines are stuck, so hopefully it will go through: https://gitlab.com/pipo.sk/libvirt/-/pipelines/261161989 Peter Krempa (33): Remove useless comments for VIR_FROM_THIS definition util: xml: Introduce autoptr cleanup support for 'xmlNode' virDomainDefSetMetadata: Avoid temporary variable for string copy virCommandAddEnv: Make stealing of argument more obvious virCommandAddArgBuffer: Simplify clearing of @buf virCPUx86DataParse: Don't check error from x86FeatureNames virhostcputest: linuxCPUStatsCompareFiles: Don't check return value of virBufferContentAndReset virBuildPath: Remove return value lxc_process: Remove OOM handling from logging setup virDomainDefSetMetadata: Rework memory handling util: vircommand: Remove OOM handling virCloseCallbacksGetForConn: Remove OOM handling virfirewall: Don't check OOM in ADD_ARG macro virfirewall: Remove OOM checks from virFirewallStartTransaction virfirewall: virFirewallAddRuleFullV: Remove OOM check from VIR_APPEND_ELEMENT virfirewall: Remove impossible OOM error reporting util: virnetlink: Add wrapper for 'nlmsg_alloc_simple' util: xml: Add virXMLBufferCreate wrapper util: xml: Add wrapper for 'xmlNewNode' Don't report OOM error on xmlCopyNode failure virXMLXPathContextNew: abort() on allocation failure virXMLParseHelper: abort() on allocation failure util: virprocess: abort() on CPU_ALLOC failure virURIFormat: abort() on failure util: iohelper: Don't handle OOM from posix_memalign hyperv: abort() failure of wsmc_fault_new() vbox: abort() on allocation failure in UTF8<->UTF16 conversion libxl: abort() on failure of libxl_cpu_bitmap_alloc() virVBoxSnapshotConfSaveVboxFile: abort() on failure to allocate xmlDoc and comment util: json: Report non-OOM error on yajl failure storage: Don't report OOM error on failure of glfs_new virVMXConvertToUTF8: Report non-OOM error on failure of xmlBufferCreateStatic util: virerror: Remove virReportOOMError build-aux/syntax-check.mk | 8 -- docs/internals/command.html.in | 8 +- src/conf/domain_conf.c | 62 ++++----- src/conf/network_conf.c | 5 +- src/cpu/cpu_x86.c | 6 +- src/hyperv/hyperv_wmi.c | 8 +- src/hypervisor/virclosecallbacks.c | 15 +-- src/libvirt_private.syms | 3 +- src/libxl/libxl_conf.c | 6 +- src/libxl/libxl_driver.c | 7 +- src/lxc/lxc_process.c | 9 +- src/storage/storage_backend_gluster.c | 3 +- .../storage_file_backend_gluster.c | 3 +- src/test/test_driver.c | 6 +- src/util/iohelper.c | 7 +- src/util/vircommand.c | 119 +++++------------- src/util/virerror.c | 22 ---- src/util/virerror.h | 8 -- src/util/virfcp.c | 3 +- src/util/virfile.c | 7 +- src/util/virfile.h | 2 +- src/util/virfirewall.c | 62 ++------- src/util/virhook.c | 14 +-- src/util/virjson.c | 6 +- src/util/virnetdev.c | 18 +-- src/util/virnetdevbridge.c | 10 +- src/util/virnetdevip.c | 15 +-- src/util/virnetdevvportprofile.c | 6 +- src/util/virnetlink.c | 38 +++--- src/util/virnetlink.h | 4 + src/util/virpci.c | 12 +- src/util/virprocess.c | 12 +- src/util/virscsi.c | 1 - src/util/virscsivhost.c | 1 - src/util/viruri.c | 8 +- src/util/virxml.c | 44 ++++--- src/util/virxml.h | 8 ++ src/vbox/vbox_common.c | 20 --- src/vbox/vbox_common.h | 15 ++- src/vbox/vbox_snapshot_conf.c | 46 ++----- src/vmx/vmx.c | 9 +- tests/virhostcputest.c | 5 +- tools/virsh-domain.c | 5 +- 43 files changed, 214 insertions(+), 462 deletions(-) -- 2.29.2
