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.

So imagine the following. You connect read only to a daemon and try to fetch stats for a shut off domain, e.g.: virsh -r domstats $dom but all of a sudden, virsh instead of printing the stats throws the following error at you: error: Disconnected from qemu:///system due to I/O error error: End of file while reading data: Input/output error The daemon crashed. This is its backtrace: #0 0x00007fa43e3751a8 in virPerfEventIsEnabled (perf=0x0, type=VIR_PERF_EVENT_MBMT) at util/virperf.c:241 #1 0x00007fa424a9f042 in qemuDomainGetStatsPerf (driver=0x7fa3f4022a30, dom=0x7fa3f40e24c0, record=0x7fa41c000e20, maxparams=0x7fa4360b38d0, privflags=1) at qemu/qemu_driver.c:19110 #2 0x00007fa424a9f2e7 in qemuDomainGetStats (conn=0x7fa41c001b20, dom=0x7fa3f40e24c0, stats=127, record=0x7fa4360b3970, flags=1) at qemu/qemu_driver.c:19213 #3 0x00007fa424a9f672 in qemuConnectGetAllDomainStats (conn=0x7fa41c001b20, doms=0x7fa41c0017f0, ndoms=1, stats=127, retStats=0x7fa4360b3a50, flags=0) at qemu/qemu_driver.c:19303 #4 0x00007fa43e4e15f6 in virDomainListGetStats (doms=0x7fa41c0017f0, stats=0, retStats=0x7fa4360b3a50, flags=0) at libvirt-domain.c:11615 Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 0x7f28d1a38700 (LWP 16154)] 0x00007f28da4fa1a8 in virPerfEventIsEnabled (perf=0x0, type=VIR_PERF_EVENT_MBMT) at util/virperf.c:241 241 return event->enabled; Problem is, shut off domains don't have priv->perf allocated. Therefore if in frame #1 qemuDomainGetStatsPerf() tries to check if perf events are enabled, NULL is passed to virPerfEventIsEnabled() which due to some incredible implementation dereference it. Fix this by checking whether passed object is not NULL. 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.
