From 889ce7460c706a8528bce444827261b288280490 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Fehlig Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2013 10:22:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] libxl: Fix race between destruction of objects It is possible to destroy and cleanup a VM, resulting in freeing the libxlDomainObjPrivate object and associated libxl ctx, before all fds and timeouts have been deregistered and destroyed. Fix this race by incrementing the reference count on libxlDomainObjPrivate for each fd and timeout registration. Only when all fds and timeouts are deregistered and destroyed will the libxlDomainObjPrivate be destroyed. --- src/libxl/libxl_driver.c | 20 +++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c b/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c index a34be51efe..b4cbddde55 100644 --- a/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c +++ b/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c @@ -111,7 +111,11 @@ libxlDriverUnlock(libxlDriverPrivatePtr driver) static void libxlEventHookInfoFree(void *obj) { - VIR_FREE(obj); + libxlEventHookInfoPtr info = obj; + + /* Drop reference on libxlDomainObjPrivate */ + virObjectUnref(info->priv); + VIR_FREE(info); } static void @@ -161,6 +165,13 @@ libxlFDRegisterEventHook(void *priv, int fd, void **hndp, } info->priv = priv; + /* + * Take a reference on the domain object.
