Package: libvirt-bin Version: 0.8.3-5 Severity: normal I cannot reliably reproduce this, but here is the python I was using to crash libvirt-bin (sometimes):
import libvirt import sys def main(): #conn = libvirt.openReadOnly(None) conn = libvirt.openReadOnly("qemu:///system") print conn.isSecure() print conn.listDefinedDomains() if __name__ == "__main__": main() I was switching between a conn None and the conn connected to qemu:///system. The conn (established with None in the call) seems to be talking to virtualbox. When it crashes I see something like this: [46609.226658] libvirtd[2139]: segfault at 7fa018db5bdf ip 0000000000419293 sp 00007fa013d8a270 error 7 in libvirtd[400000+dc000] or this [49173.212641] libvirtd[15647]: segfault at 7f9ac72acbdf ip 00007f9acb7bcb73 sp 00007f9ac2a82270 error 7 in libvirtd[7f9acb79c000+e5000] in dmesg output. In /var/log/messages, the following is present(before the crash - I cannot be sure on the exact ordering of events): Dec 5 15:43:46 randombox libvirtd: 15:43:46.381: warning : lxcStartup:1900 : Unable to create cgroup for driver: No such device or address Dec 5 15:43:47 randombox libvirtd: 15:43:47.944: warning : qemudDispatchSignalEvent:396 : Shutting down on signal 15 Dec 5 15:43:49 randombox libvirtd: 15:43:49.212: warning : qemudStartup:1832 : Unable to create cgroup for driver: No such device or address Dec 5 15:43:49 randombox libvirtd: 15:43:49.645: warning : qemudParsePCIDeviceStrs:1422 : Unexpected exit status '1', qemu probably failed Dec 5 15:43:49 randombox libvirtd: 15:43:49.921: warning : qemudParsePCIDeviceStrs:1422 : Unexpected exit status '1', qemu probably failed -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.7 APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (650, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.36.1 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
