virThreadSelf tries to access the virThreadPtr stored in TLS for the current thread via TlsGetValue. When virThreadSelf is called on a thread that was not created via virThreadCreate (e.g. the main thread) then TlsGetValue returns NULL as TlsAlloc initializes TLS slots to NULL. virThreadSelf can be called on the main thread via this call chain from virsh vshDeinit virEventAddTimeout virEventPollAddTimeout virEventPollInterruptLocked virThreadIsSelf triggering a segfault as virThreadSelf unconditionally dereferences the return value of TlsGetValue. Fix this by making virThreadSelf check the TLS slot value for NULL and setting the given virThreadPtr accordingly. Reported by Marcel Müller.
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.
