Description of problem: When removing domains, within some circumstances, one can get libvirt corruption or even segfault Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: systematic Steps to Reproduce: 1. create the following configuration file to '/etc/xen/' - test01 - test22 2. start the virt-manager, and check the domain list # virt-manager --no-fork 3. undefine 'test01' # virsh undefine test01 4. wait until updating the 'test01' status of virt-manager # virt-manager --no-fork Segmentation fault --- if any problem is not occurred, please repeat 5,6,7 --- 5. create the following configuration file to '/etc/xen/' - test01 6. undefine 'test01' # virsh undefine test01 7. wait until updating the 'test01' status of virt-manager Actual results: virt-manager crashes Expected results: no crash and virt-manager properly updates the list Additional info: It's actually caused by a bug in libvirt hash table code when two domain shares the same line of the hash The bug was explained upstream by Hiroyuki Kaguchi, and applied upstream back in February 2008 http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=649081e7c17cc97a68ccd6eebc31699d6256586a;hp=5ebab1b01da1d45c74864e0b55c8b715e9286bc2
