Subject: hw/virtio: Use error_setg_file_open() for a better error message
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=77f4f14e08184b47f1356269ae2c5db039d16af2;p=thirdparty%2Fqemu.git

hw/virtio: Use error_setg_file_open() for a better error message

The error message changes from

    vhost-vsock: failed to open vhost device: REASON

to

    Could not open '/dev/vhost-vsock': REASON

I think the exact file name is more useful to know than the file's
purpose.
