When running on systemd host the cgroup itself is removed by machined
so when we reach this code the directory no longer exist. If libvirtd
was running the whole time between starting and destroying VM the
detection is skipped because we still have both FD in memory. But if
libvirtd was restarted and no operation requiring cgroup devices
executed the FDs would be 0 and libvirt would try to detect them using
the cgroup directory. This results in reporting following errors:
libvirtd[955]: unable to open '/sys/fs/cgroup/machine.slice/machine-qemu\x2d1\x2dguest.scope/': No such file or directory
libvirtd[955]: Failed to remove cgroup for guest
When running on non-systemd host where we handle cgroups manually this
would not happen.
When destroying VM it is not necessary to detect the BPF prog and map
because the following code only closes the FDs without doing anything
else. We could run code that would try to detach the BPF prog from the
cgroup but that is not necessary as well. If the cgroup is removed and
there is no other FD open to the prog kernel will cleanup the prog and
map eventually.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
