Re: [PATCH 2/3] virnetworkobj: Free fwRemoval before setting another one in virNetworkObjSetFwRemoval()

The virNetworkObjSetFwRemoval() function is called at least two times when there's a network running and network driver initializes: 1) when loading state XMLs: #0 virNetworkObjSetFwRemoval (obj=0x7fffd4028250, fwRemoval=0x7fffd4020ad0) at ../src/conf/virnetworkobj.c:258 #1 0x00007ffff7a69c68 in virNetworkLoadState (...) at ../src/conf/virnetworkobj.c:952 #2 0x00007ffff7a6a35d in virNetworkObjLoadAllState (...) at ../src/conf/virnetworkobj.c:1072 #3 0x00007ffff7f9625f in networkStateInitialize (...) at ../src/network/bridge_driver.c:624 2) when firewall rules are being reloaded: #0 virNetworkObjSetFwRemoval (obj=0x7fffd4028250, fwRemoval=0x7fffd402e5b0) at ../src/conf/virnetworkobj.c:258 #1 0x00007ffff7f997b4 in networkReloadFirewallRulesHelper (obj=0x7fffd4028250, opaque=0x0) at ../src/network/bridge_driver.c:1703 #2 0x00007ffff7a6b09b in virNetworkObjListForEachHelper (payload=0x7fffd4028250, ...) at ../src/conf/virnetworkobj.c:1414 #3 0x00007ffff79287b6 in virHashForEachSafe (...) at ../src/util/virhash.c:387 #4 0x00007ffff7a6b119 in virNetworkObjListForEach (...) at ../src/conf/virnetworkobj.c:1441 #5 0x00007ffff7f99978 in networkReloadFirewallRules (...) at ../src/network/bridge_driver.c:1742 #6 0x00007ffff7f962f2 in networkStateInitialize (...) at ../src/network/bridge_driver.c:645 Since virNetworkObjSetFwRemoval() does not free the object stored in the first call, the second call just overwrites the stored pointer leading to a memory leak: 5,530 (48 direct, 5,482 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 1,863 of 1,880 at 0x4848C43: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:1595) by 0x4F1E979: g_malloc0 (in /usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.7800.6) by 0x4976E32: virFirewallNew (virfirewall.c:118) by 0x4979BA9: virFirewallParseXML (virfirewall.c:1071) by 0x4ABEB1E: virNetworkLoadState (virnetworkobj.c:938) by 0x4ABF35C: virNetworkObjLoadAllState (virnetworkobj.c:1072) by 0x4E9A25E: networkStateInitialize (bridge_driver.c:624) by 0x4CB1FA6: virStateInitialize (libvirt.c:665) by 0x15A6C6: daemonRunStateInit (remote_daemon.c:611) by 0x49E69F0: virThreadHelper (virthread.c:256) by 0x532B428: start_thread (in /lib64/libc.so.6) by 0x5397373: clone (in /lib64/libc.so.6) Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn(a)redhat.com&gt; --- src/conf/virnetworkobj.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
