if (*p < 'a' || *p > 'p') {
fprintf(stderr, "Invalid boot device '%c'\n", *p);
exit(1);
}
Seems like the the MAXVALUE is 'p'
Is this ok or are we going to do something about it? (In reply to comment #4) > Is this ok or are we going to do something about it? This is not the most important bug in our product especially as we do not support direct invocation of qemu (only via libvirt) and since bootindex should be used instead of -boot option. If you fill strong about it send the patch. |
Description of problem: -boot [order=drives][,once=drives][,menu=on|off] Specify boot order drives as a string of drive letters. Valid drive letters depend on the target achitecture. The x86 PC uses: a, b (floppy 1 and 2), c (first hard disk), d (first CD-ROM), n-p (Etherboot from network adapter 1-4), hard disk boot is the default. To apply a particular boot order only on the first startup, specify it via once. Exactly: n-p (Etherboot from network adapter 1-4) n .. 1 o .. 2 ? .. 3 p .. 4 What kind of alphabet are u using? I guess that it should be n-q right? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.147.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. man qemu-kvm 2. 3. Actual results: a hidden letter Expected results: valid range Additional info:
