> + domids = g_malloc0(blkdev->nr_ring_ref * sizeof(uint32_t));This version is prone to multiplication overflow (well, maybe not, but you have to audit for that). Wouldn't it be better to use: domids = g_new0(blkdev->nr_ring_ref, uint32_t) which preserves the safety of g_malloc0_n? -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3266 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
