Signed-off-by: Chen Fan <chen.fan.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> --- src/libvirt-domain.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) This does fix the memory leak and makes the function behave like it's documented in virDomainGetFSInfo and virDomainFSInfoFree: http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virDomainGetFSInfo http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virDomainFSInfoFree
But it changes the public API - if there are applications that already work around this function by freeing the info, this change would introduce a double free.
I would NACK this if the documentation for both APIs didn't say that's how this function should behave.
I'd like to hear a second opinion. I don't think this documentation make any confusable. for using the function virDomainGetFSInfo(), user also need to call virDomainFSInfoFree() on each array element, and call free() info. example:
virDomainFSInfoPtr *info; ndata = virDomainGetFSInfo(dom, &info, 0); for (i = 0; i < ndata; i++) virDomainFSInfoFree(info[i]); VIR_FREE(info); Thanks, Chen
