Subject: [PATCH] migration: Free argv
Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2024 14:54:01 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240225-argv-v1-1-a11e772884d9@daynix.com> (raw)

exec_start_outgoing_migration() and exec_start_incoming_migration()
leak argv because it uses g_steal_pointer() is used to pass argv
qio_channel_command_new_spawn() while it does not free argv either.

Removing g_steal_pointer() is not sufficient though because argv is
typed g_auto(GStrv), which means the array of strings *and strings* will
be freed. The strings are only borrowed from the caller of
exec_start_outgoing_migration() and exec_start_incoming_migration() so
freeing them result in double-free.

Instead, type argv as g_autofree char **. This ensures only the array
of strings will be freed and the strings won't be freed. Also, remove
unnecessary casts according to the new type.

Fixes: cbab4face57b ("migration: convert exec backend to accept MigrateAddress.")
