The commit cb51aa48a7 "Fix up connection
reference counting." changed the driver closing and virConnectPtr
unref-logic in virConnectClose().
Before this commit virConnectClose() closed all drivers of the given
virConnectPtr and virUnrefConnect()'ed it afterwards. After this
commit the driver-closing is done in virUnrefConnect() if and only if
the ref-count of the virConnectPtr dropped to zero.
This change in execution order leads to a virConnectPtr leak, at least
for connections to Xen.
The relevant call sequences:
virConnectOpen() -> xenUnifiedOpen() ...
... xenInotifyOpen() -> virConnectRef(conn)
... xenStoreOpen() -> xenStoreAddWatch() -> conn->refs++
virConnectClose() -> xenUnifiedClose() ...
... xenInotifyClose() -> virUnrefConnect(conn)
... xenStoreClose() -> xenStoreRemoveWatch() -> virUnrefConnect(conn)
Before the commit this additional virConnectRef/virUnrefConnect calls
where no problem, because virConnectClose() closed the drivers
explicitly and the additional refs added by the Xen subdrivers were
removed properly. After the commit this additional refs result in a
virConnectPtr leak (including a leak of the hypercall file handle;
that's how I noticed this problem), because now the drivers are only
close if and only if the ref-count drops to zero, but this cannot
happen anymore, because the additional refs from the Xen subdrivers
would only be removed if the drivers get closed, but that doesn't
happen because the ref-count cannot drop to zero.
The fix for this problem is simple: remove the
virConnectRef/virUnrefConnect calls from the Xen subdrivers (see
attached patch). Maybe someone could explain why the Xen Inotify and
Xen Store driver do this extra ref-counting, but none of the other Xen
subdrivers. It seems unnecessary to me and can be removed without
problems.

Some architectures in certain RHEL versions do not include any
hypervisors. Update the specfile to allow those to easily build
a remote client only version of libvirt. ie no libvirtd related
bits at all.
* qemud/Makefile.am: Always instal SASL config since its needed
by client too
* libvirt.spec.in: Re-factor specfile conditionals to allow entire
server side build to be disabled easily, eg a remote client only
build. Make RHEL-5 do client only build for s390/ppc. Make RHEL-6
do a client only build for all non-x86_64 archs. Enable LXC on
RHEL-6. Enable all Fedora >= 6 features on RHEL-6 too. Add some
more conditionals around dnsmasq/iptables/hal Requires tags.
Add missing e2fsprogs-devel BR for RHEL-5 as workaround for broken
parted. Fix the device mapper BR for RHEL-5. Add conditional rules
for ESX build. Add conditional rules for SELinux + HAL builds.
Fix a mistaken %{with_qemu} to be %{with_network} when setting
up default network XML
When we hot-unplug the last device, we're currently double-freeing
the device definition.
