[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] hw/pci-bridge: Fix invalid free()
Posted by Matthias Weckbecker 6 years, 10 months ago
When loadvm'ing a *running* snapshot qemu crashes due to an invalid
free. It's fortunately caught early by glibc heap memory corruption
protection and qemu gets killed with SIGABRT.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Create VM (e.g w/ virsh define)
2) Start the VM and take a snapshot while it's running and having a
   PCI bridge attached
3) Destroy the VM and revert the running snapshot.

This commit fixes the issue.
