[PATCH] virsh-snapshot: Avoid passing NULL to qsort() in virshSnapshotListCollect()
Posted by Michal Privoznik 7 months, 3 weeks ago
If a domain has no snapshots and 'virsh snapshot-list' is called,
this gets all the way down to virshSnapshotListCollect() which
then collects all snapshots (none), and passes them to qsort()
which doesn't like being called with NULL:

  extern void qsort (void *__base, size_t __nmemb, size_t __size,
                     __compar_fn_t __compar) __nonnull ((1, 4));

In most other places in virsh we do the check as 'snaplist->snaps && snaplist->nsnaps'.
