[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 14/14] qiov: prevent double free or use-after-free

[Kevin Wolf]

From: Paolo Bonzini <address@hidden>

qemu_iovec_destroy does not clear the QEMUIOVector fully, and the data
could thus be used after free or freed again.  While I do not know any
example in the tree, I observed this using virtio-scsi (and SCSI
scatter/gather) when canceling DMA requests.
