Repeating what I said last time:
You've a "use after free bug" here; you free the structure and
LIST_NEXT de-references the pointer to it in order to obtain the
pointer to the next structure.
What you need is:
{
struct ioperm_data *data;
data = LIST_FIRST(&ioperm_head);
while (data) {
struct ioperm_data *next = LIST_NEXT(data, entries);
if (data->start_port == start_port && data->num == num) {
LIST_REMOVE(data, entries);
qemu_free(data);
}
data = next;
}
}
Cheers,
Mark.
