Subject: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] libxl: fix assertion failure in stub domain creation
Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2020 11:24:12 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200205112412.19414-1-pdurrant@amazon.com> (raw)
An assertion in libxl__domain_make():
'soft_reset || *domid == INVALID_DOMID'
does not hold true for stub domain creation, where soft_reset is false
but the passed in domid == 0. This is easily fixed by changing the
initializer in libxl__spawn_stub_dm().
NOTE: The comment for XEN_DOMCTL_createdomain in domctl.h is changed to
reflect reality.
Fixes: 75259239d85d ("libxl_create: make 'soft reset' explicit")
