Description yisun 2023-02-24 07:59:41 UTC

Description of problem:
cannot delete snapshot when one of the disk's snapshot mode is 'manual'

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-9.0.0-7.el9.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.have a running vm with two disks
[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh domstate vm1
running

[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh domblklist vm1
 Target   Source
---------------------------------------------
 vda      /var/lib/libvirt/images/vm1.qcow2
 vdb      /var/lib/libvirt/images/vdb.qcow2

2. prepare a snapshot xml, in which the vda's snapshot mode is 'manual'
[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# cat snap.xml 
<domainsnapshot>
	<description>Snapshot test</description>
	<name>snap1</name>
	<memory snapshot='external' file='/tmp/mem.dump'/>
	<disks>
		<disk name='vda' snapshot='manual'/>
		<disk name='vdb' snapshot='external'/>
	</disks>
</domainsnapshot>


3. do the snapshot
[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh snapshot-create vm1 snap.xml 
Domain snapshot snap1 created from 'snap.xml'

now the vm is moved to PAUSED state, vda's path not chaged, and vdb has a new image layer 'vdb.snap1'

[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh domstate vm1
paused

[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh domblklist vm1
 Target   Source
---------------------------------------------
 vda      /var/lib/libvirt/images/vm1.qcow2
 vdb      /var/lib/libvirt/images/vdb.snap1

4. delete the snapshot
[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh snapshot-delete vm1 snap1
error: Failed to delete snapshot snap1
error: invalid argument: could not find base disk source in disk source chain

[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh resume vm1
Domain 'vm1' resumed

[root@dell-per740-41 ~]# virsh snapshot-delete vm1 snap1
error: Failed to delete snapshot snap1
error: invalid argument: could not find base disk source in disk source chain


Actual results:
snapshot cannot be removed if one of the disk has 'manual' mode for snapshot

Expected results:
libvirt should remove the snapshot data which is maintained by libvirt, such as the memory dump, vdb's new layer and snapshot's metadata

Additional info:
if vda's snapshot mode is 'no' then it works.
