Dear Martin, Thank you for your suggestion. I have submitted a bug report on this ( libvirt version 1.2.5). For your reference, the report No. is 1176584. Just like you said, I set the affinity of my process to temporarily solve this problem.

Could you create a bug for this issue, so we can track, please? In the meantime, I think it would work if you set the affinity of your process which is calling virDomainLxcEnterNamespace() before and restore it afterwards.
