PATCH: Fix libvirtd to not shutdown at startup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Changes to the daemon to make it called qemudShutdown() broke the network
driver when run in --daemon mode. This is because the main daemon forks
into the background, and the original PID then exits destroying any active
networks & removing the iptables rules.

 # /usr/sbin/libvirtd --daemon
Shutting down network 'default'iptables: No chain/target/match by that name
iptables: Bad rule (does a matching rule exist in that chain?)

Failed to bring down bridge 'virbr0' : No such device
Failed to delete bridge 'virbr0' : No such device or address

The core issue is that when forking into daemon mode the original process
should immediately exit & not do invoke cleanup functions. This patch
makes it do that
