From 7852a77f598635a67a222b6c1463c8b46098aed2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Jose R. Ziviani" Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2021 16:26:29 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] vga: don't abort when adding a duplicate isa-vga device MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit If users try to add an isa-vga device that was already registered, still in command line, qemu will crash: $ qemu-system-mips64el -M pica61 -device isa-vga RAMBlock "vga.vram" already registered, abort! Aborted (core dumped) That particular board registers the device automaticaly, so it's not obvious that a VGA device already exists. This patch changes this behavior by displaying a message and exiting without crashing. Resolves: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/44 Signed-off-by: Jose R.
