qemu_snapshot: fix detection if non-leaf snapshot isn't in active chain

[libvirt PATCH] qemu_snapshot: fix detection if non-leaf snapshot isn't in active chain

Posted by Pavel Hrdina 11 months, 3 weeks ago

The condition was completely wrong. As per the comment for function
virDomainMomentIsAncestor() it checks that the first argument is
descendant of the second argument.

Consider the following snapshot tree for VM:

  s1
    |
    +- s2
    |   |
    |   +- s3
    |
    +- s4
        |
        +- s5 (current)

When deleting s2 with the original code we checked if
virDomainMomentIsAncestor(s2, s5) which would return false basically for
any snapshot as s5 is leaf snapshot so no children.

When deleting s2 with fixed code we check if
virDomainMomentIsAncestor(s5, s2) which still returns false but when
deleting s4 it will correctly return true.
