Define helper function virDomainInterfaceFree, which allows the upper layer application to free the domain interface object conveniently.

Add more indentation before the example, so that the documentation formatter will render it correctly (if I recall correctly, just a single additional space would suffice).

This is dead code, according to the claim in [1] that hwaddr is never NULL (or this is right, but the docs are wrong).
+ * printf(" hwaddr: %s", ifaces[i]->hwaddr); + * + * for (j = 0; j < ifaces[i]->naddrs; j++) { + * virDomainIPAddressPtr ip_addr = ifaces[i]->addrs + j; + * printf("[addr: %s prefix: %d type: %d]", + * ip_addr->addr, ip_addr->prefix, ip_addr->type); + * } + * printf("\n"); + * } + * + * cleanup: + * if (ifaces) + * for (i = 0; i < ifaces_count; i++) + * virDomainInterfaceFree(ifaces[i]); + * free(ifaces); + * + * Returns the number of interfaces on success, -1 in case of error. + */ +int +virDomainInterfaceAddresses(virDomainPtr dom, + virDomainInterfacePtr **ifaces, + unsigned int source, + unsigned int flags) +{ + virConnectPtr conn; + + VIR_DOMAIN_DEBUG(dom, "ifaces=%p, source=%d, flags=%x", ifaces, source, flags); + + virResetLastError(); + + conn = dom->conn; + + virCheckDomainReturn(dom, -1); + virCheckNonNullArgGoto(ifaces, error); + virCheckReadOnlyGoto(conn->flags, error);
If we fail this check...
+ + *ifaces = NULL;
...then the caller loses out on the guarantee that *ifaces was set to NULL. Is that going to be a problem? Elsewhere, such as in virConnectListAllDomains, we explicitly do if (domains) *domains = NULL; virCheckConnectReturn(conn, -1); to guarantee that all early-exit paths set a valid non-null pointer to NULL.

I'd document that this one is explicitly safe to call on NULL (since some of our older API return failure on attempt to "Free" a NULL pointer). -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
