[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 01/06] kvm_vm.py: create a lock file to avoid VM creation in parallel

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

 



VM.create() does a few things (such as finding free ports) which
are not safe to execute in parallel. Use a lock file to make
sure this doesn't happen. The lock is released only after the
VM is started or fails to start.
