This patch (and the two patches that precede it) resolve: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005682 When libvirt was changed to delay the final cleanup of device removal until the qemu process had signaled it with a DEVICE_DELETED event for that device, the hostdev removal function (qemuDomainRemoveHostDevice()) was written to properly handle the removal of a hostdev that was actually an SRIOV virtual function (defined with <interface type='hostdev'>). However, the function used to search for a device matching the alias name provided in the DEVICE_DELETED message (virDomainDefFindDevice()) would search through the list of netdevs before hostdevs, so qemuDomainRemoveHostDevice() was never called; instead the netdev function, qemuDomainRemoveNetDevice() (which *doesn't* properly cleanup after removal of <interface type='hostdev'>), was called. (As a reminder - each <interface type='hostdev'> results in a virDomainNetDef which contains a virDomainHostdevDef having a parent type of VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_NET, and parent.data.net pointing back to the virDomainNetDef; both Defs point to the same device info object (and the info contains the device's "alias", which is used by qemu to identify the device). The virDomainHostdevDef is added to the domain's hostdevs list *and* the virDomainNetDef is added to the domain's nets list, so searching either list for a particular alias will yield a positive result.) This function modifies the qemuDomainRemoveNetDevice() to short circuit itself and call qemu DomainRemoveHostDevice() instead when the actual device is a VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_HOSTDEV (similar logic to what is done in the higher level qemuDomainDetachNetDevice()) Note that even if virDomainDefFindDevice() changes in the future so that it finds the hostdev entry first, the current code will continue to work properly.
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.
