There's this problem on the recent gcc-6.1: In file included from conf/domain_conf.c:37:0: conf/domain_conf.c: In function 'virDomainChrPreAlloc': conf/domain_conf.c:14109:35: error: potential null pointer dereference [-Werror=null-dereference] return VIR_REALLOC_N(*arrPtr, *cntPtr + 1); ^~ ./util/viralloc.h:158:73: note: in definition of macro 'VIR_REALLOC_N' # define VIR_REALLOC_N(ptr, count) virReallocN(&(ptr), sizeof(*(ptr)), (count), \ ^~~~~ conf/domain_conf.c: In function 'virDomainChrRemove': conf/domain_conf.c:14133:21: error: potential null pointer dereference [-Werror=null-dereference] for (i = 0; i < *cntPtr; i++) { ^~~~~~~ GCC basically fails to see, that the virDomainChrGetDomainPtrsInternal will never actually return NULL because it's never called over a domain char device with _LAST type. But to make it shut up, lets turn this function into returning an integer and check in the callers if a zero value value was returned. Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com>
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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
