https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1146837 Resolve a crash in libvirtd resulting from commit id 'a4bd62ad' (1.0.6) which added parentaddr and unique_id to allow unique identification of a scsi_host, but assumed that all the pool entries and the incoming definition would be similarly defined. If the existing pool uses the 'name' attribute and an incoming pool is using the parentaddr/unique_id, then the code will attempt to compare the existing name string against the incoming name string which doesn't exist (is NULL) and results in a core (STREQ). Conversely, if the existing pool used the parentaddr/unique_id and the to be defined pool used the name, then the comparison would be against the parentaddr, but since the incoming pool doesn't have one - that would leave the comparison against a parentaddr of all 0's and a unique_id of 0, which will always comparison to fail. This means someone could define the same source adapter for two pools In order to resolve this, adjust the code to get the 'host#' to be used by the storage scsi backend in order to check/start the pool and make sure the incoming definition doesn't match any of the existing pool defs.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
