Valgrind detected a pipe fd leak before the parent exits on success, introduced in commit 4296cea; by itself, the leak is not bad, since we immediately called _exit(), but we might as well be clean to make valgrind analysis easier. Meanwhile, if the daemon grandchild detects an error, the parent failed to flush the error message before exiting. Also, we had the possibility of both parent and child returning to the caller, such that the user could see duplicated reports of failure from the two return paths. And we might as well be robust to the (unlikely) situation of being started with stdin closed. * daemon/libvirtd.c (daemonForkIntoBackground): Use exit if an error message was generated, avoid fd leaks for valgrind's sake, avoid returning to caller in both parent and child, and don't close a just-dup'd stdin. Based on a report by Alex Jia. * How to reproduce? % service libvirtd stop % valgrind -v --track-fds=yes /usr/sbin/libvirtd --daemon * Actual valgrind result: ==16804== FILE DESCRIPTORS: 7 open at exit. ==16804== Open file descriptor 7: ==16804== at 0x321FAD8B87: pipe (in /lib64/libc-2.12.so) ==16804== by 0x41F34D: daemonForkIntoBackground (libvirtd.c:186) ==16804== by 0x4207A0: main (libvirtd.c:1420) Signed-off-by: Alex Jia <ajia@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> |

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
