This is not ideal but OK because it's only used in the test suite. Is there a specific bug you're trying to fix here? thanks -- PMM

One of our internal self-developed module also use this function, and we implemented a function to remove intercepting, so there is no memory leak after this bugfix.

I think this could better be done without calling qemu_allocate_irqs(): Simply call qemu_allocate_irq() (without "s" at the end) within the for-loop for each irq instead. What do you think? Thomas

What do you think? Yeah, this can save some memory. But I think it does not solve the refcount covering problem. > Thanks Keqian > Thomas > > >

What do you think? Well, what are we trying to do with the function? I think that your suggestion still doesn't really fix the leak in the sense that there's no mechanism for undoing the operation and freeing the memory allocated by qemu_allocate_irq(). The whole concept of the function is pretty dubious because it's arbitrarily re-plugging IRQs, which in the whole of the rest of QEMU are assumed to be something that's wired up by board code or by an SoC device that "owns" the two devices it's connecting. That's fine for test-case purposes, and for the qtest code that is the only in-tree user of this function we could construct a (nominally) leak-free version of the function by having it return some kind of handle that could be passed to a qemu_irq_remove_intercept_in() to clean up [this would fix a Coverity nag, which would be the main benefit...]. I agree that copying the refcount here looks wrong, but in what situation is the refcount on any of the qemu_irqs involved changing anyway? For non-testing uses of this function it gets trickier (what if the device on one end or the other is destroyed while the intercept is in place, for instance?) So I'm a bit sceptical of ideas about extending the uses of this function to non-test-code, and I think I'd want to see what the intended non-test uses were... thanks -- PMM

Avoid covering object refcount of qemu_irq, otherwise it may causes memory leak. Signed-off-by: Keqian Zhu <zhukeqian1@huawei.com> --- hw/core/irq.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
