Commit fb64e176f4f forgot to delete the check that short-circuits the disk alias creation if the alias is already present. The side efect of this is that the creation qomName which is necessary to be able to refer to disk frontends when -blockdev is used was skipped when user aliases are used. Fix it by deleting the check. Also prevent any potential memory leaks from calling this function repeatedly by creating the qomName only when it's not present. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1741838 Signed-off-by: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@xxxxxxxxxx> --- src/qemu/qemu_alias.c | 6 ++---- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_alias.c b/src/qemu/qemu_alias.c index 585cc972ba..216a18d0d9 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_alias.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_alias.c @@ -182,9 +182,6 @@ qemuAssignDeviceDiskAlias(virDomainDefPtr def, const char *prefix = virDomainDiskBusTypeToString(disk->bus); int controllerModel = -1; - if (disk->info.alias) - return 0; - if (!disk->info.alias) { if (disk->info.type == VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_DRIVE) { if (disk->bus == VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_BUS_SCSI) { @@ -220,7 +217,8 @@ qemuAssignDeviceDiskAlias(virDomainDefPtr def, * on the alias in qemu.
