From e5b815b0defcc3617f473ba70c3e675ef0ee69c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Denis V. Lunev" Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2023 12:58:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] qemu-nbd: regression with arguments passing into nbd_client_thread() Unfortunately commit 03b67621445d601c9cdc7dfe25812e9f19b81488 Author: Denis V. Lunev Date: Mon Jul 17 16:55:40 2023 +0200 qemu-nbd: pass structure into nbd_client_thread instead of plain char* has introduced a regression. struct NbdClientOpts resides on stack inside 'if' block. This specifically means that this stack space could be reused once the execution will leave that block of the code. This means that parameters passed into nbd_client_thread could be overwritten at any moment. The patch moves the data to the namespace of main() function effectively preserving it for the whole process lifetime. Signed-off-by: Denis V.
