dump: do not dump non-existent guest memory
It does not really make sense to dump memory that is not there. Moreover, that fixes a segmentation fault when calling dump-guest-memory with no filter for a machine with no memory defined. New behaviour is: (qemu) dump-guest-memory /dev/null dump: no guest memory to dump (qemu) dump-guest-memory /dev/null 0 4096 dump: no guest memory to dump Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com> Tested-by: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> Reviewed-by: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20170913142036.2469-4-lvivier@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com>
