When the session has expired then multiple threads can race while reestablishing it. This race condition is not that critical as it requires a special usage pattern to be triggered. It can only happen when an application doesn't do API calls for quite some time (the session expires after 30 min inactivity) and then multiple threads doing simultaneous API calls and end up doing simultaneous calls to esxVI_EnsureSession.
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.
