When creating multiple VMs in parallel using virt-install, pool refresh fails with:
error: internal error: pool 'default' has asynchronous jobs running. This happens because a concurrent volume creation holds an async job on the pool. The storagePoolRefresh() function immediately returns VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR instead of waiting for the async job to finish. Patch 1 fixes the error code from VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR to VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID in all 4 affected operations (pool-refresh, pool-destroy, pool-undefine, pool-delete), consistent with the adjacent "pool is not active" and "pool is starting up" checks. Patch 2 adds a condition variable to virStoragePoolObj so that storagePoolRefresh() waits up to 30 seconds for async jobs to drain instead of failing immediately. The other three operations keep the immediate error since waiting to destroy/delete/undefine a pool during volume creation is not a sensible user workflow. Reproducing the bug requires artificially widening the race window since fallocate() completes in microseconds on local filesystems. I used LD_PRELOAD to inject a 15-second delay into fallocate64() for files in the pool directory. Details and validation results are in the individual patch notes below the '---' line. https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-150758 Lucas Amaral (2): storage: fix error code for async jobs check in pool operations storage: wait for async jobs to drain during pool refresh src/conf/virstorageobj.c | 39 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/conf/virstorageobj.h | 3 +++ src/libvirt_private.syms | 1 + src/storage/storage_driver.c | 25 ++++++++++++++++------- 4 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) -- 2.52.0
