Comment 7 Vivian Bian 2011-08-15 07:11:34 UTC 
tested with 
libvirt-0.8.7-18.el6_1.1.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.160.el6_1.7.x86_64
kernel-2.6.32-131.12.1.el6.x86_64

According to bug 711206

$ cat > demo.c <<EOF
#include <libvirt/libvirt.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
  virInitialize();
  virDomainDestroy(NULL);
}

EOF

$ gcc -o demo -lvirt demo.c

This is what you should see for correct behaviour:

$ LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 ./demo 2>&1 | grep Destroy
13:58:15.178: 11291: debug : virDomainDestroy:2049 : dom=(nil), (VM:
name=(null), uuid=), 
libvir: Domain error : invalid domain pointer in virDomainDestroy

So set bug status to VERIFIED
