... What does this make difference? Unless I missed something, what you
do is
just changing the function into a macro. And I don't see any benifit
from it.

I thought I have already clearly explained the problem.
The virBitmapFree is:
void virBitmapFree(virBitmapPtr bitmap)
{
if (bitmap) {
VIR_FREE(bitmap->map);
VIR_FREE(bitmap);
}
}
Bitmap is a parameter (formal parameter). The address which is pointed by Bitmap is the same as argument(actual parameter) pointed.
In " VIR_FREE(bitmap);", it frees the same address. But only assigns the NULL to the Bitmap, not to the argument(actual parameter).
After calling virBitmapFree, if there is not assigning NULL to the argument(actual parameter), and using this argument(actual parameter) to call
the virBitmapFree again, it will free an already freed address. It will generate a crash.
I knew your meaning, what I was wondering was:
There are 3 solutions:
1> After call virBitmapFree function, add a assignment which is assign NULL to the argument(actual parameter) of virBitmapFree.
2> Change the virBitmapFree to :
void virBitmapFree(virBitmapPtr *bitmap)
{
if (*bitmap) {
VIR_FREE((*bitmap)->map);
VIR_FREE(*bitmap);
}
}
And change all virBitmapFree calling from
virBitmapFree(abc)
to
virBitmapFree(&abc)
3> change the virBitmapFree to a macro, like my first mail.
1) Regardless of what the problem is, and whether to change the interface of
virBitmapFree or introduce a macro, I didn't see you use it, I.E
fixing the crash
problems. Without the changes on the use of virBitmapFree, the patch is
quite confused between the commit log and the patch itself.
2) And actually the macro still doesn't help if we don't pass a
"virBitmapPtr *"
argument for it. So the patch doesn't change things.
I prefer to change the interface of virBitmapFree instead, since it will
need the
"virBitmapPtr *" argument anyway.
