A free(NULL) is ok, but a double-free would not be. Something like this would make me feel better: diff --git a/dma-helpers.c b/dma-helpers.c index 35cb500..57725d0 100644 --- a/dma-helpers.c +++ b/dma-helpers.c @@ -65,6 +65,7 @@ void qemu_sglist_destroy(QEMUSGList *qsg) { g_free(qsg->sg); + memset(qsg, 0, sizeof(qsg)); } typedef struct { Paolo > Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jba...@redhat.com> > --- > hw/ide/ahci.c | 3 +++ > 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/hw/ide/ahci.c b/hw/ide/ahci.c > index 9c95714..b48401d 100644 > --- a/hw/ide/ahci.c > +++ b/hw/ide/ahci.c > @@ -1073,6 +1073,9 @@ static int ahci_dma_rw_buf(IDEDMA *dma, int is_write) > dma_buf_write(p, l, &s->sg); > } > > + /* free sglist that was created in ahci_populate_sglist() */ > + qemu_sglist_destroy(&s->sg); > + > /* update number of transferred bytes */ > ad->cur_cmd->status = cpu_to_le32(le32_to_cpu(ad->cur_cmd->status) + l); > s->io_buffer_index += l; >
