Subject: [PATCH 2/3] libxl: Set disk format for empty cdrom device
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2014 17:55:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1395939304-9017-3-git-send-email-stefan.bader@canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1395939304-9017-1-git-send-email-stefan.bader@canonical.com>
The XML config for a CDROM device can be without a source path,
indicating that there is no media present. Without this change
the libxl driver fails to start a guest in that case because
the libxl library checks for the LIBXL_DISK_FORMAT_EMPTY format
type and tries to stat the NULL pointer that gets passed on.
> libxl: error: libxl_device.c:265:libxl__device_disk_set_backend:
> Disk vdev=hdc failed to stat: (null): Bad address
