Description of problem: qemu-kvm doesn't show any error when user supplies a negative port value to -spice Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -q qemu-kvm spice-server qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.165.el6.x86_64 spice-server-0.8.0-1.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. $ /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice disable-ticketing,port=-3000 Actual results: do_spice_init: starting 0.8.0 spice_server_add_interface: SPICE_INTERFACE_KEYBOARD spice_server_add_interface: SPICE_INTERFACE_MOUSE spice_server_add_interface: SPICE_INTERFACE_QXL red_worker_main: begin handle_dev_input: start Expected results: something like: qemu-kvm: -spice disable-ticketing,port=-3000: Parameter 'port' expects a positive number parse error: disable-ticketing,port=-3000
Happens as well when supplying a port that is out of range: $ /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice disable-ticketing,port=123456
Simliar to bug #717958, will have one patch for both.
I verify with the latest spice-server and qemu-kvm,but this issue doesn't reproduce. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # rpm -qa qemu-kvm spice-server spice-server-0.8.2-3.el6.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.183.el6.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1.when supplying a port that is a negative value. # /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice disable-ticketing,port=-30 Actual results: spice port is out of range 2.when supplying a port that is out of range. # /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice disable-ticketing,port=123456 Actual results: spice port is out of range Above, the qemu-kvm has friendly error tips.
Reproduced this issue with qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.180.el6.x86_64,I tried two scenarios. steps: 1. negative value # /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice disable-ticketing,port=-30 2. port num out of range #/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice disable-ticketing,port=123456 Result: Qemu-kvm can be booted successful without any message about port error. Verified this issue with fixed version qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.184.el6.x86_64 using steps as same as reproduce. Actual results: --snip of output from qemu-kvm-- qemu-kvm can not be booted with friendly message "spice port is out of range". Above all,this issue has been fixed.
