From: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@xxxxxxxxx> As the comment in qapi/error, passing @errp to error_prepend() requires ERRP_GUARD(): * = Why, when and how to use ERRP_GUARD() = * * Without ERRP_GUARD(), use of the @errp parameter is restricted: ... * - It should not be passed to error_prepend(), error_vprepend() or * error_append_hint(), because that doesn't work with &error_fatal. * ERRP_GUARD() lifts these restrictions. * * To use ERRP_GUARD(), add it right at the beginning of the function. * @errp can then be used without worrying about the argument being * NULL or &error_fatal. ERRP_GUARD() could avoid the case when @errp is the pointer of error_fatal, the user can't see this additional information, because exit() happens in error_setg earlier than information is added [1]. The xen_console_connect() passes @errp to error_prepend() without ERRP_GUARD(). There're 2 places will call xen_console_connect(): - xen_console_realize(): the @errp is from DeviceClass.realize()'s parameter. - xen_console_frontend_changed(): the @errp points its caller's @local_err. To avoid the issue like [1] said, add missing ERRP_GUARD() at the beginning of xen_console_connect().
