Dear libvirt expert:
Thanks for your replay, we are not restore from the same state file twice, only one time. we have 40 process, each process handle it's own VM and VM state file, and each process will do following things cycle:
While(1)
{
Virsh restore state file
do something in VM in 20s
virsh destroy vm
}
so we have sure now: There is currently no way to reduce these 40 xen status files space.
When we do the above things, we got a xen crash on xen-4.7.0, so we try to use the xen-4.8.2 and libvirt 2.5.0, and the crash problem is no longer exist, but we got a new problem:
we add the <interface> in config fie of VM:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='18:c5:8a:15:c1:39'/>
<source bridge='virbr0'/>
</interface>
When we use 'virsh create virsh_0.xml', we can't create the vm, and got follow error:
2017-11-28 12:36:56.329+0000: 17489: error : libxlDomainStart:1280 : internal error: libxenlight failed to create new domain 'aap_0'
error: Failed to create domain from virsh_0.xml
error: internal error: libxenlight failed to create new domain 'aap_0'
and in the /var/log/libvirt/libxl/libxl-driver.log there have a log:
2017-11-28 20:36:53 CST libxl: error: libxl_exec.c:118:libxl_report_child_exitstatus: /etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge online [17580] exited with error status 127
2017-11-28 20:36:53 CST libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1461:domcreate_attach_devices: unable to add nic devices.
Could you plz help us how to process this problem? Thank you !

--bypass-cache is not yet supported in the Xen driver. Should be easy to add, patches welcome :-).

But you don't restore from the *same* file right? You restore VM1 from state- file1, VM2 from state-file2, etc., correct? Restoring from the same state file twice would result in 2 instances of the same VM. Actually, the libvirt Xen driver does not even allow this
# virsh start test-hvm
Domain test-hvm started
# virsh save test-hvm /tmp/test-save.img
Domain test-hvm saved to /tmp/test-save.img # virsh restore /tmp/test-save.img Domain restored from /tmp/test-save.img xen81:~ # virsh restore /tmp/test-save.img
error: Failed to restore domain from /tmp/test-save.img
error: Requested operation is not valid: domain 'test-hvm' is already active
