tap: Improve -netdev/netdev_add/-net/... tap error reporting
When -netdev tap fails, it first reports a specific error, then a generic one, like this: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev tap,id=foo qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev tap,id=foo: could not configure /dev/net/tun: Operation not permitted qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev tap,id=foo: Device 'tap' could not be initialized With the command line, the messages go to stderr. In HMP, they go to the monitor. In QMP, the second one becomes the error reply, and the first one goes to stderr. Convert net_init_tap() to Error. This suppresses the unwanted second message, and makes the specific error the QMP error reply. [Dropped duplicate "and" from error message as suggested by Eric Blake: "ifname=, script=, downscript=, and vnet_hdr=, " "queues=, and vhostfds= are invalid with helper=" --Stefan] Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Message-id: 1431691143-1015-16-git-send-email-armbru@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
