Sorry I didn't see this sooner. On the last series where I suggested you
switch to using Error, I was referring to the error propagation stuff in
Error.c, namely error_set(Error *err)

I don't it's clear to users when socket_error() should be used as
opposed to errno (or nothing at all), especially in a utility function like
this that makes a lot of system calls. errno actually gets used
explicitly in a few spots in qemu-sockets.c, for w32, ironically, so
it's missed completely by socket_error()/WSAGetLastError() checks.

Unfortunately, creating distinct error classes for every permutation of
bind/listen/connect/socket and EINPROGRESS/EWOULDBLOCK/EINTR/EXXX is too
much.

But really the whole reason we now need error propagation is basically
just to let the new non-blocking users know when a connect() "failure" was
simply EINPROGRESS, right? For other errors the user probably just wants
to know what function failed (and maybe a strerror(errno) but that's
not typically how we use Error/QError currently).

Currently, other than for ENOTSUP which we use errno for, everything in
qemu-sockets.c just prints errors to stderr and returns -1, 0, or a valid fd,
and no current users, AFAICT, check errno/socket_error()/etc.

So we're free to do it up nice and clean, and here's what I'd suggest:

1) Rename the following functions:

inet_listen_opts(...) -> inet_listen_opts_err(..., Error **errp)
inet_connect_opts(...) -> inet_connect_opts_err(..., Error **errp)
unix_listen_opts(...) -> inet_listen_opts_err(..., Error **errp)
unix_connect_opts(...) -> inet_connect_opts_err(..., Error **errp)
inet_dgram_opts(...) -> inet_listen_opts_err(..., Error **errp)

Make wrappers for the originals that call them with errp == NULL.

2) Add the following error classes to qerror.c/qerror.h:

QERR_SOCKET_CONNECT_IN_PROGRESS
QERR_SOCKET_CONNECT_FAILED
QERR_SOCKET_LISTEN_FAILED
QERR_SOCKET_BIND_FAILED
QERR_SOCKET_CREATE_FAILED

And maybe a handful of others that seem worth reporting.
QERR_UNDEFINED_ERROR is probably okay for the more obscure failures.

For inet_*_opts_err(), set these errors alongside where we currently print to
stderr and return -1. Handling errors for the others are probably outside the
scope of your patches and can be done easily enough later, but would be nice to
at least pass back QERR_UNDEFINED_ERROR as a place holder.

3) Add your non-blocking support, document
QERR_SOCKET_CONNECT_IN_PROGRESS as being significant in that the user
should begin select()'ing for completion, checking SO_ERROR, etc.

4) Use it for ipv6 migration.

IMO, anyway. I think the series is basically there otherwise, we just
have some nicer error-handling infrastructure in place since socket_error()
was first added and it makes sense to use if we need to introduce error
propagation to qemu-sockets.c
