From: Eduardo Otubo <[email protected]> When using filter-mirror like the example below where the interface 'ndev0' does not exist on the host, QEMU crashes into segmentation fault.
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -S -machine pc -netdev user,id=ndev0 -object filter-mirror,id=test-object,netdev=ndev0 This happens because the function filter_mirror_setup() does not check if the device actually exists and still keep on processing calling qemu_chr_find(). This patch fixes this issue.
