Description Mark McLoughlin 2008-11-07 16:41:07 UTC
If I:

  1) Open a guest console
  2) Click on Run and shortly after click on Pause
  3) Open the serial console with View->Serial console
  4) Click on Shutdown->force poweroff

then virt-manager exits quite reliably.

Helpfully, this *doesn't* happen if I run with --no-fork.

virt-manager.log doesn't show anything interesting; the last message is "Destroying vm 'Test2'"

If I strace it, then I see this:

stat("/etc/localtime", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=3533, ...}) = 0
write(3, "[Fri, 07 Nov 2008 16:35:00 virt-m"..., 88) = 88
sendto(16, "\0\0\0<"..., 4, 0, NULL, 0) = 4
sendto(16, " \0\200\206\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\f\0\0\0\0\0\0'\241\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\5Test2"..., 56, 0, NULL, 0) = 56
recvfrom(16, 0x7fffb053ce20, 4, 0, 0, 0) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted)
--- SIGHUP (Hangup) @ 0 (0) ---

and then virt-manager *doesn't* exit.

fd 16 is the libvirtd socket:

[pid  4354] socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 16
[pid  4354] connect(16, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock"...}, 110 <unfinished ...>

Are we maybe getting a SIGHUP when we have a serial console pty open and the guest exits?

Comment 1 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 04:59:36 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2008-12-08 16:34:14 UTC
Thanks for debugging this, Mark. I was able to reproduce this. Just blocking SIGHUP if we fork off seems to fix this, with no apparent adverse effects.

Moving to POST.
