[libvirt] [PATCH 1/2] Introduce virCheckFlags for consistent flags checking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The idea is that every API implementation in driver which has flags
parameter should first call virCheckFlags() macro to check the function
was called with supported flags:

    virCheckFlags(VIR_SUPPORTED_FLAG_1 |
                  VIR_SUPPORTED_FLAG_2 |
                  VIR_SUPPORTED_ANOTHER_FLAG, -1);

The error massage which is printed when
unsupported flags are passed looks like:

    invalid argument in virFooBar: unsupported flags (0x2)

Where the unsupported flags part only prints those flags which were
passed but not supported rather than all flags passed.
