[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu_process: mark auto-generated spice ports as reserved
by Pavel Hrdina 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

In case you will specify graphics like this: <graphics type='spice' port='-1'/> or <graphics type='spice' port='-1' tlsPort='6000'/> libvirt will automatically add autoport='no'. This leads to an issue that in qemuProcessStop() we don't release that port because we are releasing both port if autoport=yes or only port marked as reserved. If autoport=no but we request to generate port via '-1' we need to mark that port as reserved in order to release it.

[libvirt] Plans for next release
by Daniel Veillard 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

So we are getting close to the end of the month and it's time to push a new release. I think that if we want to push it by March 1st we should start the freeze Wednesday at the latest, maybe RC1 on Wed, RC2 friday and release next Mon if everything looks okay. If there is an issue with this plan, please tell :) Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[libvirt] [PATCH] virDomainDefFormatInternal: Drop useless check
by Michal Privoznik 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

There's a check if a domain definition has any graphics card and if so, we iterate over each one of them. This makes no sense, because even if it has none we can still iterate over.

[libvirt] [PATCH] adminDaemonListServers: Don't leak @srv_names array
by Michal Privoznik 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

When getting a list of servers registered for a daemon, it's returned as a dynamically allocated array filled in with pointers to constant strings. Because the array is dynamic, it should be freed when no longer needed (but not the strings!). Even the function that creates the array suggests that. ==19446== 48 bytes in 3 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 821 of 1,034 ==19446== at 0x4C2C28E: realloc (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so) ==19446== by 0x54BAFC8: virReallocN (viralloc.c:245) ==19446== by 0x54BB0BE: virExpandN (viralloc.c:294) ==19446== by 0x54BB391: virInsertElementsN (viralloc.c:436) ==19446== by 0x164E3D: virNetDaemonGetServerNames (virnetdaemon.c:217) ==19446== by 0x15616F: adminDaemonListServers (admin_server.c:52) ==19446== by 0x155B8C: adminDispatchConnectListServers (admin.c:151) ==19446== by 0x155FD8: adminDispatchConnectListServersHelper (admin_dispatch.h:101) ==19446== by 0x568E862: virNetServerProgramDispatchCall (virnetserverprogram.c:437) ==19446== by 0x568E3C3: virNetServerProgramDispatch (virnetserverprogram.c:307) ==19446== by 0x5687B5B: virNetServerProcessMsg (virnetserver.c:135) ==19446== by 0x5687C1B: virNetServerHandleJob (virnetserver.c:156) Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn(a)redhat.com> --- daemon/admin_server.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/daemon/admin_server.c b/daemon/admin_server.c index 7521e82..0196bfe 100644 --- a/daemon/admin_server.c +++ b/daemon/admin_server.c @@ -68,6 +68,7 @@ adminDaemonListServers(virNetDaemonPtr dmn, ret = nsrvs; cleanup: + VIR_FREE(srv_names); virObjectListFree(srvs); return ret; } -- 2.4.10
