Description Ján Tomko 2013-09-11 07:46:02 UTC
Also reproducible with libvirt-1.1.1-4.el7.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1006710 +++

Description of problem:
The nodeset bitmap was freed when placement was auto, but the pointer wasn't set to NULL, leading to a double free when freeing the domain definition.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6

Steps to Reproduce:
1. virsh define /dev/stdin <<EOF
<domain type='qemu'>
  <name>duck</name>
  <memory unit='MiB'>32</memory>
    <numatune>
        <memory mode='preferred' placement='auto' nodeset='0'/>
    </numatune>
  <os>
    <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc'>hvm</type>
  </os>
</domain>
EOF
2. virsh undefine duck

Actual results:
error: Failed to undefine domain duck
error: End of file while reading data: Input/output error
error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor

Expected results:
Domain duck has been undefined

    virDomainDefParseXML: set the argument of virBitmapFree to NULL after calling virBitmapFree
    
    After freeing the bitmap pointer, it must set the pointer to NULL.
    This will avoid any other use of the freed memory of the bitmap pointer.

Comment 4 Jincheng Miao 2013-09-22 03:39:21 UTC
This bug is fixed in libvirt-1.1.1-5.el7.x86_64, the test steps are:

# rpm -q libvirt
libvirt-1.1.1-5.el7.x86_64

# virsh define /dev/stdin <<EOF
> <domain type='qemu'>
>   <name>duck</name>
>   <memory unit='MiB'>32</memory>
>     <numatune>
>         <memory mode='preferred' placement='auto' nodeset='0'/>
>     </numatune>
>   <os>
>     <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc'>hvm</type>
>   </os>
> </domain>
> EOF
Domain duck defined from /dev/stdin

# virsh undefine duck
Domain duck has been undefined

# systemctl status libvirtd
libvirtd.service - Virtualization daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/libvirtd.service; enabled)
   Active: active (running) since Sun 2013-09-22 11:29:26 CST; 9min ago
 Main PID: 4780 (libvirtd)
   CGroup: /system.slice/libvirtd.service
           ├─2961 /sbin/dnsmasq --conf-file=/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default....
           └─4780 /usr/sbin/libvirtd

So I change the status to VERIFIED.
