Subject: [PATCH v2] vfio/container: Fix container object destruction
Date: Fri, 15 Nov 2024 09:34:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241115083440.2236669-1-clg@redhat.com> (raw)

When commit 96b7af4388b3 intoduced a .instance_finalize() handler,
it did not take into account that the container was not necessarily
inserted into the container list of the address space. Hence, if
the container object is destroyed, by calling object_unref() for
example, before vfio_address_space_insert() is called, QEMU may
crash when removing the container from the list as done in
vfio_container_instance_finalize(). This was seen with an SEV-SNP
guest for which discarding of RAM fails.

To resolve this issue, use the safe version of QLIST_REMOVE().

Fixes: 96b7af4388b3 ("vfio/container: Move vfio_container_destroy() to an instance_finalize() handler")
Signed-off-by: Cédric Le Goater <clg@redhat.com>

 Changes in v2:

 - use the safe version of QLIST_REMOVE() instead of calling
   vfio_address_space_insert() earlier.
