It's not 100% reproducible for me, but almost. In a production cluster hosting virtual machines it leads to cluster fencing, ie. hard reboot of the affected host machine, as its VMs become unmanageable when libvirtd dies. So I consider this a serious bug, but also an easy to fix one: upstream already fixed it as noted in the upstream tracker (altough an unrelated commit is mentioned there by mistake; I included the fixed line based on that info, not on testing). I wonder why the original report indicated version 0.9.12-11.1, did that version officially exist? On the other hand, it's actually the version given to my locally modified package (with the attached patch added to fix this bug). Anybody interested can get it from: deb(-src) http://apt.niif.hu/debian wheezy main As this bug affects wheezy, I hereby plea for including the fix in a stable update. -- Thanks, Feri.
Description: Fix libvirtd crash when destroying a domain with attached console Author: Peter Krempa <[email protected]> Origin: upstream Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=969497 Applied-Upstream: ba226d334acbc49f6751b430e0c4e00f69eef6bf and 45edefc7a7bcbec988f54331ff37fc32e4bc2718 Last-Update: 2013-06-07 --- This patch header follows DEP-3: http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/ This is two upstream commits squashed: commit ba226d334acbc49f6751b430e0c4e00f69eef6bf Author: Peter Krempa <[email protected]> Date: Fri Jul 27 14:50:54 2012 +0200 conf: Remove callback from stream when freeing entries in console hash When a domain has a active console connection and is destroyed the callback is called on private data that no longer exist causing a segfault. commit 45edefc7a7bcbec988f54331ff37fc32e4bc2718 Author: Peter Krempa <[email protected]> Date: Fri Aug 3 11:20:29 2012 +0200 conf: Remove console stream callback only when freeing console helper Commit ba226d334acbc49f6751b430e0c4e00f69eef6bf tried to fix crash of the daemon when a domain with an open console was destroyed. The fix was wrong as it tried to remove the callback also when the stream was aborted, where at that point the fd stream driver was already freed and removed. This patch clears the callbacks with a helper right before the hash is freed, so that it doesn't interfere with other codepaths where the stream object is freed.
