[libvirt] [PATCH] qemuMonitorTextGetMemoryStats: plug a leak on an error path

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Coverity complained about a leak via this return -1
in qemu_monitor_text.c:

  int qemuMonitorTextGetMemoryStats(qemuMonitorPtr mon,
                                    virDomainMemoryStatPtr stats,
                                    unsigned int nr_stats)
  {
      char *reply = NULL;
      int ret = 0;
      char *offset;

      if (qemuMonitorCommand(mon, "info balloon", &reply) < 0) {
          qemudReportError(NULL, NULL, NULL, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED,
                           "%s", _("could not query memory balloon statistics"));
          return -1;
      }

That can happen because
qemuMonitorCommand calls
qemuMonitorCommandWithFd which calls
qemuMonitorCommandWithHandler, which does this:


218    ret = qemuMonitorSend(mon, &msg);
...
228  	    if (msg.rxBuffer) {
229  	        *reply = msg.rxBuffer;
230  	    } else {
231  	        *reply = strdup("");
232  	        if (!*reply) {
233  	            virReportOOMError(NULL);
234  	            return -1;
235  	        }
236  	    }
237
238  	    if (ret < 0)
239  	        virReportSystemError(NULL, msg.lastErrno,
240  	                             _("cannot send monitor command '%s'"), cmd);
241
242  	    return ret;
243  	}

That function breaks contract by failing to free *reply when it
returns a negative value.  Here's the fix:
