Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] util: Make getaddrinfo failure nonfatal in virGetHostname

Setting a hostname that cannot be resolved is not the best configuration but since virGetHostname only calls getaddrinfo to get host's canonical name and we do not fail if the returned canonical name is NULL or "localhost", there is no reason why we should fail if getaddrinfo itself fails. --- src/util/util.c | 16 ++++++++-------- 1 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/util/util.c b/src/util/util.c index 1ff287d..fd4d7fa 100644 --- a/src/util/util.c +++ b/src/util/util.c @@ -1858,10 +1858,10 @@ char *virIndexToDiskName(int idx, const char *prefix) * try to resolve this to a fully-qualified name.
