From 1f17be07e9fbbae6fdba6842546ca86d51f84447 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?C=C3=A9dric=20Bosdonnat?= Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2015 16:23:08 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 5/5] Fix qemu-nbd cleanup crashes The virLXCControllerAppendNBDPids function didn't properly initialize pids and npids. In case of failure it was crashing when freeing those. The nbd device pid file doesn't appear immediately after starting qemu-nbd: adding a small loop to wait for it. --- src/lxc/lxc_controller.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/lxc/lxc_controller.c b/src/lxc/lxc_controller.c index 828b8a8..78d3eee 100644 --- a/src/lxc/lxc_controller.c +++ b/src/lxc/lxc_controller.c @@ -533,16 +533,31 @@ static int virLXCControllerAppendNBDPids(virLXCControllerPtr ctrl, const char *dev) { char *pidpath = NULL; - pid_t *pids; - size_t npids; + pid_t *pids = NULL; + size_t npids = 0; size_t i; int ret = -1; + size_t loops = 0; pid_t pid; if (!STRPREFIX(dev, "/dev/") || virAsprintf(&pidpath, "/sys/devices/virtual/block/%s/pid", dev + 5) < 0) goto cleanup; + /* Wait for the pid file to appear */ + while (!virFileExists(pidpath)) { + /* wait for 100ms before checking again, but don't do it for ever */ + if (errno == ENOENT && loops < 10) { + usleep(100 * 1000); + loops++; + } else { + virReportSystemError(errno, + _("Cannot check NBD device %s pid"), + dev + 5); + goto cleanup; + } + } + if (virPidFileReadPath(pidpath, &pid) < 0) goto cleanup; -- 2.1.4
