Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Fix libvirtd free() segfault when migrating guest with deleted open vswitch port

libvirtd crashes on free()ing portData for an open vswitch port if that port was deleted.  To reproduce:   ovs-vsctl del-port vnet0 virsh migrate --live kvm1 qemu+ssh://dstHost/system   Error message: libvirtd: *** Error in `/usr/sbin/libvirtd': free(): invalid pointer: 0x000003ff90001e20 ***   The problem is that virCommandRun can return an empty string in the event that the port being queried does not exist. When this happens then we are unconditionally overwriting a newline character at position strlen()-1. When strlen is 0, we overwrite memory that does not belong to the string.   The fix: Only overwrite the newline if the string is not empty.   Reviewed-by: Bjoern Walk <bwalk(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com&gt; Signed-off-by: Jason J.
