Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] python: don't mask libvirt errors

A user reported this crash when using python bindings: File "/home/nox/workspace/NOX/src/NOX/hooks.py", line 134, in trigger hook.trigger(event) File "/home/nox/workspace/NOX/src/NOX/hooks.py", line 33, in trigger self.handlers[event]() File "/home/nox/workspace/NOX/hooks/volatility.py", line 81, in memory_dump for block in Memory(self.ctx): File "/home/see/workspace/NOX/src/NOX/lib/libtools.py", line 179, in next libvirt.VIR_MEMORY_PHYSICAL) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 1759, in memoryPeek ret = libvirtmod.virDomainMemoryPeek(self._o, start, size, flags) SystemError: error return without exception set In the python bindings, returning NULL makes python think an exception was thrown, while returning the None object lets the wrappers know that a libvirt error exists. Reported by Nox DaFox, fix suggested by Dan Berrange. * python/libvirt-override.c (libvirt_virDomainBlockPeek) (libvirt_virDomainMemoryPeek): Return python's None object, so wrapper knows to check libvirt error. --- python/libvirt-override.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
