Hi Jim, i use libvirt 1.1.3.5 on fedora core 20, the vm´s i startet are xen-vm´s. i also take a look on libvirt 1.1.2 on an openSuSE 13.1 und also on libvirt 1.0.2 on an OpenSuSE 12.3 and i didn´t see threads that are created and not closed . But on the openSuSE-Systems the vm´s are KVM/qemu. on the fedora-system i will attach gdb to the libvirtd-process, and hope to see what´s doing on. all the best max ----------------ursprüngliche Nachricht----------------- Von: "Jim Fehlig" jfehlig@xxxxxxxx An: ustermann78@xxxxxx Kopie: libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx, libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx Datum: Tue, 30 Sep 2014 18:44:17 -0600 ------------------------------------------------- > ustermann78@xxxxxx wrote: >> hello, >> >> if i start a transient guest doamin via "virsh create abcd.xml" i see an >> additional libvirt thread and also some open files: >> >> pstree -h `pgrep libvirtd` >> libvirtd───11*[{libvirtd}] >> >> libvirtd 3016 root 21w REG 253,0 6044 1052094 >> /var/log/libvirt/libxl/abcd.log >> libvirtd 3016 root 22r FIFO 0,8 0t0 126124 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 23w FIFO 0,8 0t0 126124 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 24u REG 0,37 0 4 /proc/xen/privcmd >> libvirtd 3016 root 25u unix 0xffff8807d2c3ad80 0t0 126125 socket >> libvirtd 3016 root 26r FIFO 0,8 0t0 126127 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 27w FIFO 0,8 0t0 126127 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 28r FIFO 0,8 0t0 124783 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 29w FIFO 0,8 0t0 124783 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 30r FIFO 0,8 0t0 127140 pipe >> libvirtd 3016 root 31w FIFO 0,8 0t0 127140 pipe >> >> if i destroy these vm via "virsh destroy abcd", i see that the additional >> thread still exists and also the list of openfiles is the same. >> > > I don't see this behavior with current libvirt git master > > # pstree `pgrep libvirtd` > libvirtd───10*[{libvirtd}] > # virsh create ./test.xml > Domain test created from ./test.xml > # pstree `pgrep libvirtd` > libvirtd───11*[{libvirtd}] > # virsh destroy test > Domain test destroyed > # pstree `pgrep libvirtd` > libvirtd───10*[{libvirtd}] > > All file descriptors opened when the domain was created were closed as well. > > What version of libvirt are you using? > > Regards, > Jim > > -- -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
