>Description:
If you bind more than 6 ipv4 addresses to a jail, then run jls(8), it segfaults after trying to copy the array of IPs to a single jail.

The crash appears in:

#1  0x000000080064d6c7 in jailparam_get (jp=0x800a02600, njp=5, flags=0) at /usr/src/lib/libjail/jail.c:581

(gdb) list
576                                                 JAIL_ERRMSGLEN);
577                                             return (-1);
578                                     }
579                             }
580                             jiov[ai].iov_base = jp[j].jp_value;
581                             memset(jiov[ai].iov_base, 0, jiov[ai].iov_len);
582                             ai++;
583                     } else if (jp + j != jp_key) {
584                             jiov[i].iov_base = jp[j].jp_name;
585                             jiov[i].iov_len = strlen(jp[j].jp_name) + 1;

It's crashing on memset, because iov_base is null:

(gdb) print jiov[ai]
$1 = {iov_base = 0x0, iov_len = 28}
(gdb) print j
$2 = 1
(gdb) print jp[j]
$3 = {jp_name = 0x800a11040 "ip4.addr", jp_value = 0x0, jp_valuelen = 28, jp_elemlen = 4, jp_ctltype = -1073479675, jp_structtype = 1, jp_flags = 16777216}

                                jp[j].jp_valuelen = jiov[ai].iov_len;


This fixes the crash, and makes jls appear to give the full list of IPs. I'm totally lost trying to follow what this function is doing, so I don't know if this is actually fixing the real bug or just working around the problem. Someone who knows libjail better than I should probably review this.
