RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Ján Tomko 2013-08-26 13:39:20 UTC
Description of problem:
virsh net-update reports an invalid pointer error with non-existent network

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-1.1.1-2.el7

How reproducible:
I'm certain that it happens all the time.

Steps to Reproduce:

virsh # net-update net404 delete dns-srv '<srv service='name'/>"

Actual results:
error: failed to get network 'net404'
error: Network not found: no network with matching name 'net404'
error: invalid network pointer in virNetworkFree

Expected results:
No invalid pointer error.

    Don't free NULL network in cmdNetworkUpdate
    
    If the network has not been found, virNetworkFree(NULL)
    was called, resulting in an extra error:
    error: invalid network pointer in virNetworkFree

Verify it using libvirt-1.1.1-3.el7.x86_64. The result is expected. Move its status to VERIFIED.
