That would provoke a NULL-dereference in virCgroupDenyDevicePath. >From c1caed370a7b2eae2e964a6059b014530143075c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyering@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2009 14:15:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] qemu_driver.c: avoid NULL dereference upon disk-op failure * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainAttachDevice): Call virCgroupDenyDevicePath only if cgroup is non-NULL. --- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c index 9ef6c35..81afecf 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c @@ -5485,7 +5485,7 @@ static int qemudDomainAttachDevice(virDomainPtr dom, virDomainDiskDeviceTypeToString(dev->data.disk->device)); /* Fallthrough */ } - if (ret != 0) { + if (ret != 0 && cgroup) { virCgroupDenyDevicePath(cgroup, dev->data.disk->src); } -- 1.6.6.rc2.275.g51e2d -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
