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.

Peter Krempa 72e4e1a105 rpc: Don't unref identity object while callbacks still can be executed
While this thread is cleaning up the client and connection objects:
 #2  virFileReadAll (path=0x7f28780012b0 "/proc/1319/stat", maxlen=maxlen@entry=1024, buf=buf@entry=0x7f289c60fc40) at util/virfile.c:1287

 #9  0x00007f28adbbef4e in virThreadPoolWorker (opaque=opaque@entry=0x7f28aec88030) at util/virthreadpool.c:145

In stack frame #6 the client->identity object got unref'd, but the code
that removes the event callbacks in frame #5 did not run yet as we are
trying to obtain the system identity (frames #4, #3, #2).

In other thead:
 #0  virObjectUnref (anyobj=anyobj@entry=0x7f288c162c60) at util/virobject.c:264
        klass = 0xdeadbeef
        obj = 0x7f288c162c60
 #1  0x00007f28ae71c709 in remoteRelayDomainEventCheckACL (client=<optimized out>, conn=<optimized out>, dom=dom@entry=0x7f28aecaafc0) at remote.c:164

 #4  0x00007f28adc03831 in virObjectEventStateDispatchCallbacks (callbacks=<optimized out>, ....) at conf/object_event.c:724
 #5  virObjectEventStateQueueDispatch (callbacks=0x7f288c083730, queue=0x7fff51f90030, state=0x7f288c18da20) at conf/object_event.c:738
 #6  virObjectEventStateFlush (state=0x7f288c18da20) at conf/object_event.c:816
 #7  virObjectEventTimer (timer=<optimized out>, opaque=0x7f288c18da20) at conf/object_event.c:562
 #8  0x00007f28adb859cd in virEventPollDispatchTimeouts () at util/vireventpoll.c:459

Frame #0 is unrefing an invalid identity object while frame #2 hints
that the client is still dispatching the event.

         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.
