Re: [libvirt] PATCH 0/5: connection cloning support (WIP)

Ok, with that fix, my asynchronous Java event implementation seems to be
working (though not fully tested) with these patches.

But I'm not using connection cloning (yet).  It's your concurrency
control in the remote driver that makes this work.

On the Java side, domain event callbacks from another thread work
because of the (Java) locking of Connect objects.  I don't think I
should remove that, since libvirt still prohibits concurrent use of the
same virConnect object (right?)

I suppose I could clone the virConnect object before delivering an event
to a Java Domain (so the Domain's Connect would wrap the clone).  I
don't think this does much in the remote case (since the underlying RPC
pipe it still shared, albeit safely).  But I suppose it might allow
greater concurrency in the non-remote cases.  Is this what you had in
mind?
