exec: report error when memory < hpagesize
Report an error when memory < hpagesize in file_ram_alloc() so callers can handle the error. If user adds a memory-backend-file object using object_add command, specifying a size that is less than huge page size, qemu will core dump with message: Bad ram offset fffffffffffff000 Aborted (core dumped) This patch fixes the problem. With this patch, qemu reports error message like: qemu-system-x86_64: -object memory-backend-file,mem-path=/hugepages,id=mem-file0,size=1M: memory size 0x100000 must be equal to or larger than huge page size 0x200000 Signed-off-by: Hu Tao <hutao@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
