From 54cdaa1bad3885448ef39faad93d40be3b223519 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 20:03:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tap: clear vhost_net backend on cleanup Frontends calling tap_get_vhost_net get an invalid pointer after the peer backend has been deleted. Jason Wang reports this leading to a crash in ack_features when we remove the vhost-net bakend of a virtio nic. The fix is simply to clear the backend pointer. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
