When using a <interface type="network"> that points to a network with hostdev forwarding mode a hostdev alias is created for the network. This allias is inserted into the hostdev list, but is backed with a part of the network object that it is connected to. When a VM is being stopped qemuProcessStop() calls networkReleaseActualDevice() which eventually frees the memory for the hostdev object. Afterwards when the domain definition is being freed by virDomainDefFree() an invalid pointer is accessed by virDomainHostdevDefFree() and may cause a crash of the daemon. This patch removes the entry in the hostdev list before freeing the depending memory to avoid this issue. Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1000973
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.

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.
