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.

This patch resolves https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=815270 The function virNetDevMacVLanVPortProfileRegisterCallback() takes an arg "virtPortProfile", and was checking it for non-NULL before using it. However, the prototype for virNetDevMacVLanPortProfileRegisterCallback had marked that arg with ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL(). Contrary to what one may think, ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL() does not provide any guarantee that an arg marked as such really is always non-null; the only effect to the code generated by gcc, is that gcc *assumes* it is non-NULL; this results in, for example, the check for a non-NULL value being optimized out. (Unfortunately, this code removal only occurs when optimization is enabled, and I am in the habit of doing local builds with optimization off to ease debugging, so the bug didn't show up in my earlier local testing). In general, virPortProfile might always be NULL, so it shouldn't be marked as ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL. One other function prototype made this same error, so this patch fixes it as well. |

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.
