I've encountered the following bug, but only on Gentoo with
systemd and CGroupsV2. I've started an LXC container successfully
but destroying it reported the following error:
error: Failed to destroy domain 'amd64'
error: internal error: failed to get cgroup backend for 'pathOfController'
Debugging showed, that CGroup hierarchy is full of surprises:
/sys/fs/cgroup/machine.slice/machine-lxc\x2d861\x2damd64.scope/
└── libvirt
├── dev-hugepages.mount
├── dev-mqueue.mount
├── init.scope
├── sys-fs-fuse-connections.mount
├── sys-kernel-config.mount
├── sys-kernel-debug.mount
├── sys-kernel-tracing.mount
├── system.slice
│ ├── console-getty.service
│ ├── dbus.service
│ ├── system-getty.slice
│ ├── system-modprobe.slice
│ ├── systemd-journald.service
│ ├── systemd-logind.service
│ └── tmp.mount
└── user.slice
For comparison, here's the same container on recent Rawhide:
/sys/fs/cgroup/machine.slice/machine-lxc\x2d13550\x2damd64.scope/
└── libvirt
Anyway, those nested directories should not be a problem, because
virCgroupKillRecursiveInternal() removes them recursively, right?
Sort of. The function really does remove nested directories, but
it assumes that every directory has the same controller as the
rest. Just take a look at virCgroupV2KillRecursive() - it gets
'Any' controller (the first one it found in ".scope") and then
passes it to virCgroupKillRecursiveInternal().
This assumption is not true though. The controllers found in
".scope" are the following:
cpuset cpu io memory pids
while "libvirt" has fewer:
cpuset cpu io memory
Up until now it's not problem, because of how we order
controllers internally - "cpu" is the first and thus picking
"Any" controller returns just that. But the rest of directories
has no controllers, their "cgroup.controllers" is just empty.
What fixes the bug is dropping @controller argument from
virCgroupKillRecursiveInternal() and letting each iteration work
pick its own controller.

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.
