Description Cole Robinson 2013-10-03 17:51:52 UTC

Bit of a weird one here. I have a guest that, when started, crashes libvirtd. This is bug #1014088 , simple to reproduce, just try to start a guest with nographics and no video device attached. Here's a demo:

[crobinso@colepc ~]$ sudo virsh list --all | grep anyconfig-f18
 -     ztester-anyconfig-f18          shut off
[crobinso@colepc ~]$ sudo virsh start ztester-anyconfig-f18
error: Failed to start domain ztester-anyconfig-f18
error: End of file while reading data: Input/output error
error: One or more references were leaked after disconnect from the hypervisor
error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor

[crobinso@colepc ~]$ sudo virsh list --all | grep anyconfig-f18
[crobinso@colepc ~]$ sudo service libvirtd restart
Restarting libvirtd (via systemctl):                       [  OK  ]
[crobinso@colepc ~]$ sudo virsh list --all | grep anyconfig-f18
 -     ztester-anyconfig-f18          shut off


I start the VM, libvirtd crashes, systemd restarts it, but now the culprit vm is gone from virsh list. Restart libvirtd one more time and it reappears.
