Suggest to rephrase the commit message like this: vl: Improve error message when we can't load fw_cfg from file parse_fw_cfg() reports "can't load" without further details. Get the details from g_file_get_contents(), and include them in the error message.

It makes sense to print the error message while reading file failed. Signed-off-by: Li Qiang <liq3ea@gmail.com> --- vl.c | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
