From: Zhao Liu<[email protected]>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 qcow2_co_can_store_new_dirty_bitmap() passes @errp to error_prepend(). As a BlockDriver.bdrv_co_can_store_new_dirty_bitmap method, it's called by bdrv_co_can_store_new_dirty_bitmap(). Its caller is not being called anywhere, but as the API in include/block/block-io.h, we can't ensure what kind of @errp future users will pass in. To avoid potential issues as [1] said, add missing ERRP_GUARD() at the beginning of qcow2_co_can_store_new_dirty_bitmap().
