[PATCH v2] hw/s390x: Fix memory leaks after removing elements with QTAILQ_REMOVE

Posted by Thomas Huth 2 weeks ago

From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

The elements that get removed with QTAILQ_REMOVE are never referenced
afterwards anymore, so the corresponding memory should get freed.

Fixes: 37fa32de70 ("s390x/pci: Honor DMA limits set by vfio")

 v2: Drop change to hw/s390x/s390-pci-bus.c (since it needs other rework)
