- Thread-topic: [PATCH] xen/domctl: Fix double domid_free in XEN_DOMCTL_createdomain error path
Remove redundant domid_free() call in the XEN_DOMCTL_createdomain error
handling path to prevent a double-free condition.
When domain_create() fails, it internally calls _domain_destroy() during
its cleanup routine, which already invokes domid_free() to release the
allocated domain ID. The additional domid_free() call in the domctl error
path creates a double-free scenario, triggering an assertion failure in
domid.c:
Assertion 'rc' failed at common/domid.c:84
The domain creation flow is:
1. domid_alloc() allocates a domain ID
2. domain_create() is called with the allocated ID
3. If domain_create() fails:
a) domain_create() calls _domain_destroy() internally
b) _domain_destroy() calls domid_free() to release the ID
c) domctl incorrectly calls domid_free() again
This double-free violates the domain ID management invariants and causes
system instability. The fix ensures domid_free() is called exactly once
per allocated domain ID, maintaining proper resource cleanup
semantics.
