qdev-properties-system: Improve error message for drive assignment conflict
If the user forgot if=none on their drive specification they're likely to get an error message because the drive is assigned once automatically by QEMU and once by the manual id=/drive= user command line specification. Improve the error message produced in this case to explicitly guide the user towards if=none. We rephrase the "drive conflict but not for an if=something" error as well to keep the wording in line. The two cases that change are: (1) Drive specified as to be auto-connected and also manually connected (and the board does handle this if= type): qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none \ -drive if=scsi,file=tmp.qcow2,id=foo -device ide-hd,drive=foo Previously: qemu-system-x86_64: -device ide-hd,drive=foo: Property 'ide-hd.drive' can't take value 'foo', it's in use Now: qemu-system-x86_64: -device ide-hd,drive=foo: Drive 'foo' is already in use because it has been automatically connected to another device (did you need 'if=none' in the drive options?) (2) Drive specified to be manually connected in two different ways: qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -display none \ -drive if=none,file=tmp.qcow2,id=foo -device ide-hd,drive=foo \ -device ide-hd,drive=foo Previously: qemu-system-x86_64: -device ide-hd,drive=foo: Property 'ide-hd.drive' can't take value 'foo', it's in use Now: qemu-system-x86_64: -device ide-hd,drive=foo: Drive 'foo' is already in use by another device Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Message-id: 1435068107-12594-3-git-send-email-peter.maydell@linaro.org
