Not sure I understand the question as VIR_ALLOC_N allocates
address_array with guestIP->nips + 1 NULL 'char *' entries. Then your
for loop fills the entries[i].... The "address_array[guestIP->nips] =
NULL;" would seem superfluous too I guess. I wasn't initially looking
beyond the memory leak. There's plenty of examples using VIR_ALLOC_N
in the code that you can see how each array entry is free'd as well as
the containing structure.
Ah, I've missed the part that VIR_ALLOC_N initialize memory with zeros.
