I began noticing a race when reserving VNC ports as described here https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-November/msg00379.html Turns out that we were not initializing the size field of bitmap struct when allocating the bitmap. This subsequently caused virBitmapSetBit() to fail since bitmap->size is 0, hence we never actually reserved the port.
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.
