block/gluster: improve defense over string to int conversion
using atoi() for converting string to int may be error prone in case if
string supplied in the argument is not a fold of numerical number,
This is not a bug because in the existing code,
static QemuOptsList runtime_tcp_opts = {
.name = "gluster_tcp",
.head = QTAILQ_HEAD_INITIALIZER(runtime_tcp_opts.head),
.desc = {
...
{
.name = GLUSTER_OPT_PORT,
.type = QEMU_OPT_NUMBER,
.help = "port number ...",
},
...
};
port type is QEMU_OPT_NUMBER, before we actually reaches atoi() port is already
defended by parse_option_number()
However It is a good practice to use function like parse_uint_full()
over atoi() to keep port self defended
Note: As now the port string to int conversion has its defence code set,
and also we understand that port argument is actually a string type,
in the follow up patch let's move port type from QEMU_OPT_NUMBER to
QEMU_OPT_STRING
