[PATCH] fix deadlock when qemu cannot start

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

 



When qemu cannot start, we may call qemuProcessStop() twice.
We have check whether the vm is running at the beginning of
qemuProcessStop() to avoid libvirt deadlock. We call
qemuProcessStop() with driver and vm locked. It seems that
we can avoid libvirt deadlock. But unfortunately we may
unlock driver and vm in the function qemuProcessKill() while
vm->def->id is not -1. So qemuProcessStop() will be run twice,
and monitor will be freed unexpectedly. So we should set
vm->def->id to -1 at the beginning of qemuProcessStop().
