This condition is always false because non-NULL errp is always provided by the only caller (host_memory_backend_memory_complete()). To simplify error checking, I suggest moving the error path to a label at the end of the function, e.g.: static void file_backend_memory_alloc(HostMemoryBackend *backend, Error **errp) { Error *local_err = NULL; /* ... */ memory_region_init_ram_from_file(..., &local_err); if (local_err) { goto out; } /* ... */ if (!backend->size) { backend->size = memory_region_size(&backend->mr); } /* ... */ out: error_propagate(errp, local_err); } > + backend->size = memory_region_size(&backend->mr); > + if (!backend->size) { > + error_setg(errp, "can't create backend with size 0"); > + } > + } > } > > static char *get_mem_path(Object *o, Error **errp) > diff --git a/exec.c b/exec.c > index 95983c9..91adc62 100644 > --- a/exec.c > +++ b/exec.c > @@ -1274,6 +1274,14 @@ static void *file_ram_alloc(RAMBlock *block, > goto error; > } > > + if (memory) { > + memory = memory ?: file_size; This doesn't make sense to me. You already checked if memory is zero above, and now you are checking if it's zero again. file_size is never going to be used here. > + memory_region_set_size(block->mr, memory); > + memory = HOST_PAGE_ALIGN(memory); > + block->used_length = memory; > + block->max_length = memory; This is fragile: it duplicates the logic that initializes used_length and max_length in qemu_ram_alloc_*(). Maybe it's better to keep the file-size-probing magic inside hostmem-file.c, and always give a non-zero size to memory_region_init_ram_from_file(). > + } > + > if (memory < block->page_size) { > error_setg(errp, "memory size 0x" RAM_ADDR_FMT " must be equal to " > "or larger than page size 0x%zx", > -- > 2.10.1 > -- Eduardo
